1st Week in Term 3

Today was the first day back for Term 3 2011 and everyone got to choose a Talent Development area. We all had three choices which were:

1. Documentaries with Alana,

2. Art with Darryn

3. Creative Writing.

The Creative Writing and the Documentries will be featured in 'The Made Awards' this year. But the best of the Art with be presented at the City Gallery by S.I.T arcade at the start of next year.

I am in the Art group with Darryn. Today from this morning to lunch time Darryn took us out to two places which were:

1. The Art Gallery by the Water Tower

2. The City Gallery by the S.I.T arcade.

Our topic for Art this Term is Dragons. We will all be doing 3 types:

1. Clay,

2. Prints with chisels

3. Drawings/sketch

We also have a new Must Do/Can Do sheet when we have to get the things we've done signed off and checked by ether Katie, Darryn or Alana.

Today for my workshops I did P4C with Alana about friendships and Drama with Katie which, we did a game of 'Hot-seat'. There is one person who sits on a seat and the rest of the group tries to get them out by asking questions as the person on the seat can't say 'Yes' 'No' or shrug.

I can't wait until next week for more Art and other activities! =)

Mood: Happy because of the awesome day! =) =)

Teacher Comment

Alex.

You have had a busy term at Enrich. You used your passion for writing to produce original stories to be recorded onto an audio CD for children in Christchurch who were effected by the earthquake. You make very good use of your time at Enrich - it was great to see you tracking your learning on your Must Do / Can Do sheet, as well as posting interesting comments on your blog describing your new learning at Enrich. I look forward to another productive term with you.

Katie.
