A NEW subject. Performing a song. I went into my tote-tray and got out my book and got a pen. I nervously trotted over to the table where Nicola was sitting. We got ready for the warmups. Nicola played her keyboard. She played her famous "What Should We Do?" song. We started to clap in the beat of different songs. We also did some jumping beans warmups. I jumped up and down thinking "Such fun" and then we had to go all the way to the stage and back. I was huffing and puffing. What a great day.
(Applause) Thank you, thank you very much. Enjoyed my story folks? Well Good then! Oh, I just forgot. It is the last day of Enrich. Booooohoooooo :( I am really sad that it is the last day. Anyway, I'll be coming back next term. I have one more challenge for the day- singing for Nicola and seeing if I am going to get into the music and performance group. Anyway, I want to say a massive thank-you to my followers, the people who read my blog. Thank-you so much! See me next term for some more fun!
Bye, Anna.

Hello everyone!
Today at Enrich was a blast!
We started off the fabulous day with passion time (one of my favorite subjects at Enrich!)
Have I told you that I am doing a mosaic for passion time? Well I am. We started to work on doing our passion projects/ talent development projects this morning.
My mosaic is probably going to be a love heart to give to my Mum and Dad as a present for nothing. But I love them so it's all good! I am a very arty person as you might of heard.
I am going to do a red love heart with a blue background. I might be getting some one to come in and help me with the project. It is going to be a pro mosaic artist by the way.
I am aiming to get it done in a term of Enrich. I hope my Mum and Dad like it and I hope it looks really good.
Bye,
Anna.

Queens Park.
Hello everyone!
Today at Enrich was a very fun but tiring day. We went on a field trip around town to look at patterns. Patterns is the subject for one of our cornerstones, Concept Curriculum. So we got into three groups chosen by Katie and in the group we were in we got into pairs. I paired up with Rhea. Rhea, Travis, Bruno, Ali, Grace, Brianna, Emily and I were in the big group together. We got a clipboard with a piece of paper. On the piece of paper was four columns. in one column there was beauty, order, strength and survivability. We also got a camera for our pair. We were looking for patterns in our local environment and here are some photos to prove it.
Adios, Anna

Hello everyone!
Today at enrich was a gaming day! We started off in the morning doing drama. We played some really fun games! The games we played were: Musical Bumps, Colour Line, Fortunately/Unfortunately and One Word Stories. I will explain to you how to play colour line.
You will need:
At least 5 or 6 players
Post-it notes
Pen
Audience
To have fun!!!
How to play: You must write down a colour on each post-it note and put one on each of the players backs.
Then the players must say clearly their colour on their back once.
Then the audience closes their eyes and the players jumble around places. The audience then guesses the sequence of the colours. If they get it right, they get added to the colour line. Obviously it gets harder and harder.
That's all for now. Bye,
Anna.

Caine's Arcade
Hi everyone!!
Today Enrich was action packed with fun! Straight away, we started with a video of giftedness and of determination. There is a boy in L.A called Caine and he is a gifted person who always tries his best and will never give up on anything. I reckon (one) of his strengths is probably creativity because of this video. When Caine was about 8 or 9 he said to his father "I want to make a arcade". Caine's Dad must of thought "No way." But his Dad gave him some cardboard boxes and Caine would've thought "Yes! Thank-you Dad!" And this is how he became famous. First of all he got a claw and a piece of yarn and attached both of them together. Then he made a hole in the box and put some prizes in it and that's how he is my favourite person in the world. I LOVE his creativity. He made 6 or 7 games and they look amazing. A guy came out just to change his door handle at Caine's Dad's auto-parts shop. While he was in there he saw Caine's masterpiece. He asked how much it was to play per game. It was a one dollar for 5 games but if you got a fun pass for 2 dollars you got to play up to 500 games!!!!! All Caine wanted was two dollars and for people to enjoy his arcade! His father took him out to a pizza place for lunch and Caine got to explore some real arcade games. On the way home his father asked him if he wanted to close down early since he wasn't getting any customers. And guess what he said. "No chance." That's the determination he has. His father planned a surprise earlier with the man that was Caine's first customer. Lots of people made banners and came to his arcade! This man Caine's first customer) got all those people by advertising Caine's Arcade on the Internet and making a Facebook page! When Caine came back he saw all of the people (and there were HEAPS of them), he smiled with joy. Here is the link to watch this fabulous and inspiring video:

Patterns
Hi everyone!!!
Today at enrich we found out what our concept curriculum is. It is patterns. We got into groups of three and discussed what patterns are. We got all our ideas together and someone wrote it down. My ideas were: Group of shapes, there can be all different types of patterns eg. Kowhaiwhai panels which are a pattern that tell a story. It was really really fun! I can't wait to see what else we are going to do later on in this year!!!
