Brain Workout!!!

Howdy Y'all!!!!!
Today is the last day of Enrich for the term:(
So that also means its the last blogpost for the term.
Today we were mainly just finishing up some Discovery tasks. But............. 

My favourite thing we did was brain training, that means to sharpen up our brains. Or as I call it a brain workout. We had this website that we got to explore, that had brain training exercises on it. I was doing an exercise called Dragger. There are puzzle pieces and you have to make a detailed puzzle. It gets very frustrating when you keep trying and you just can't quite get it.
From Enrich, that's it from me.

Hi, we're from Enrich!, We shouted into the Aurasma camera as Paul took the video.

Aurasma is an app for Apple and other android products. It is when you take a video then a picture of something. When you are on the Aurasma app, you focus the camera over the object that you took a photo of and it should play the video that you took. My group did one where we focused the camera over good behaviour picture and it played the video that was us saying, "Hi, we're from Enrich!".

We also went round the room finding Aurasmas. There was one that was One Direction on an Oreo packet and the video was about them loving Oreos and another one was Spiderman that played a video of Spiderman going around the town.

When I get home I am so going to get Aurasma on my iPod!

Stretching my thinking

Hello Blog Readers,

I'm back at Enrich and I couldn't wait to blog to all you people again. Today we did our thinker's keys. Today I did personal key with Nicola, which was great fun. We had a sheet to fill in to answer the questions. Then we had to change numbers around and that made the questions sound weird eg. I was worried about chocolate. We also had another session of Brain Boosters and I did "Wuzzles" with Nicola. Wuzzles means Word Puzzles put together makes............Wuzzles!!!!

Wuzzles was all about unscrambling anagrams which were compound words. It was good to be pressured and to feel challenged.

Blog ya next week,

Tessa:)

Hello blog readers,
Today we have been rehearsing and practicing our christmas carols because we are performing them next week. We've been learning new moves and lyrics every lesson. Instead of doing it in front of the New World supermarket in Windsor, we have decided to do it on the streets of inner-city Invers.

Nicola says that the only people who might be watching will be an old lady and her dog! But that's fine. The songs we're singing are We Wish You A Merry Christmas, Deck The Halls, Jingle Bells and my favourite Gloria. Also Joey is singing Mary Did You Know and Liam is doing an Brumbly the elf monologue.

Deck the halls with bells of holly, fa la la la laa, la la la la... till next week,

Bye

Hello people of the world!!!!
Today at Enrich we had another session of Singing 201 and we only have two more sessions left until we make our debut performance outside the New World supermarket in Windsor. We got our solos today and I have one in Deck The Halls With Boughs Of Holly. We have put many well known christmas songs together to make a medley. We have  a lot of little dancy bits and solos in it.

This is Tessa reporting. Over and out. Till next week,

ByeBye

Crossword mayhem!!!

Hello blog readers,
Today at Enrich we were continuing our crosswords we have been making for word patterns. It is really hard to get all the words to fit in the spaces and then there is making up all the clues! First we got a piece of paper that had the spaces and numbers on it. Then we had to make the words got in the spaces using real words. Not words that don't make sense. Then after that you have to make up the clues so that people will understand and work out the answer. It has been so much fun and its something I never thought I would do.

This is what my crossword looks like now.

Burn burn burn!!

Bonjour blog readers,
Today at Enrich we had another session of affective domain to work on our gifted person study. I am so close to finishing - just a few more touch ups and typing to go. 

We also started our Singing 201 rehearsals for the christmas carols with Nicola. We have a big medley to learn and everyone will be having a solo for it. Half of the songs I don't even know. We are also learning a song called Burn by Ellie Goulding. We are performing it at the leavers night for the year sixes. Like always, we had a fun lesson filled with giggles and laughter. But we only have five practices before the real thing. We are going to be wearing funny christmas costumes and hats etc. I think we will have a blast.
