One word: Maths! Today I did maths with Katie. In maths we did probability which is a bit like 'guesstimating' what is going to happen.  First we started with a dice.  There are 6 possibilities when you roll the dice - 1 2 3 4 5 6.  Each time you roll the dice, you have got a 1 / 6 chance of rolling each number, which as a percentage works out to be 16.6%!  We all drew tally charts to show all the outcomes and then Katie rolled the dice 50 times and we marked down the results.  We worked out our actual percentages.  Next, we did it again but this time we used a box of chocolates. MMMMMMM! First we had to work out how many chocolates there were.  Then we worked out how many of each flavour there was.  From this, we worked out the probability of pulling each flavour out.  We tipped all the chocolates into a basket and we all took turns to draw out a chocolate. We called out 'Moro' or 'Crunchie' and we recorded  our results.

We did 50 grabs, and then worked out our percentages.  We predicted that we would pull out Cherry Ripe and Turkish Delight the least, as there weren't as many of them, but we pulled them out heaps!  At the end Katie said we could have one chocolate each. I chose the Moro bar because it was my favourite chocolate.

NIcola's CRAZY singing/dancing group

Today I went to a Talent Development Tasters group. The group I was in was Nicola's music group. In Nicola's group we listened to different types of music and danced around CRAZILY until she told us to stop and sit down. Then she played us her favourite song ''My Life Would Suck Without You". She gave us a sheet of paper that had the lyrics on the back. Then she played the song and we sung to it. Nicola told us to bend your knees and your voice will go high, and she also taught us how to breathe when singing. Then we went outside and made complete fools of ourselves singing and dancing like mad people and I even think Tim Shadbolt saw us and the people who were fixing the roof next door were even looking at us doing the grapevine and dancing CRAZILY while singing the chorus.  IT was REALLY and I mean REALLY EMBARRASSING.

Hi everyone today at Enrich I played the Wilson game called The Hoop Game. In the hoop game you get into groups of three and set up hula hoops 3 meters away from the starting line. The rules of the game are you are not allowed to jump in the hoop by yourself you need to have everyone in the hoop, you have to jump at the same time, you can't touch the hoop with your feet. When Katie claps and says jump we need to jump but when she just claps or says jump you have to try and not jump. In my group I had Liam and Grace. We were trying so hard to be first group in the hoop, but we were beaten by Darryn's group instead. Matt's group came first and another group came second.

Hello today at Enrich we were told what we are going to focus on for Concept Curriculum. We are focusing on Patterns and what patterns are and the things that make patterns. Patterns are made up of shapes and colours that are repeated over again. Fibbanarci is a pattern in maths and the Kowhaiwhai panels are patterns as well. Patterns are all around you.

Hi everybody today at Enrich I painted the alley way mural with Lucy and her nan. The colours we used were yellow, dark green and blue. We started with mixing the blue and yellow to make a nice light green. Darryn went and got us the dark green and some overalls. Next me and Lucy got to work. We painted the bottom bright green then we left a space for the dark green to mix in. Then we painted the pond blue and Lucy's nan started to paint the hills. Next Lucy started to paint some more of the green wall. Lucy's nan said ''the wall is really coming to life now isn't it''. Me and Lucy had great fun painting the wall. Goodbye.

Hello everybody, today at Enrich I started my day off with a Wilson game called 4 red 4 blue and a ball.  We had to get the four reds and blues but here's the twist you can't have the same beanbag twice and you can't have the same colour twice.  After the game we went into passion time. For passion time Christina and I did cartooning.  After morning tea we did chess and I faced Christina and lost the match.  We had must dos and picks.  My pick was landscape design.

Technology Challenge

Hi everyone today at Enrich I started my day off with a game of chess. In chess I faced Lucy and lost the match. When chess finished we went into our environment projects. In my group we cleaned up the alley way and decided to paint one wall first then the other. After morning tea we had a technology challenge. The challenge was based on MacGyver. In the challenge we had to make a device to get a hammer and chisel because MacGyver (played by one of us) had his feet stuck in some concrete and needed to escape without the bomb going off .
