Today at Enrich!


Today at Enrich I did 3D Drawing with Darryn. It was fun!
We had to draw 3D boxes overlapping each other! It was really hard to get all of the lines straight.


Another thing we did today was the Wilson game called Bulls Eye.
We were in teams of 7 and 8 and had 4 little bean bags that we had to throw into hoops.
Once we threw the first bean bag into the first hoop you had go onto the next hoop that was further away then the first! It was great and I got two bean bags into the hoop. Yay!


We also did our Environment Projects and I think that the Waihopai Restoration project that I am doing with Madison, Kate and Hannah is going really well. We had a meeting with Environment Southland last week and we are allowed to do it! We are planting plants along the Waihopai Bank next to the dam to stop mud running into the river.

Dinoscope

Today for high interest stations I did the dino-scope workshop with Darryn. It was awesome!
A dino-scope is something you can plug into your computer and it is like a magnifier.
We looked at dead flies, it was gross. 
The wing looked really interesting because they had a pinky green sort of colour through it!

Here is a picture of the flies wing:


I also looked at a feather and one of the strands off the feather looks like a normal feather but only under the dino-scope. It was amazing.
I am looking forward to next week so I can do it again.

Teacher comment

Hey Hannah, I was so impressed with your day.  You and Kate quickly chose your environment project and were into it.  I liked the way you just got on with it, using your initiative and you have already made good progress.  I hope you enjoyed Spanish today, it looked interesting and a lot of fun.  I can’t wait to see how much you can speak at the end of it.  Hope you had a great week at school and ready for another busy day at enrich.
