Talofa bloggers!
So far it has been an action-packed day!
We started a new 4 week lot of sessions that we chose what we wanted to do. I chose Garageband with Paul so I could get some tips and tricks to help with Anna and I's passion project ,which is making our own album of Garageband songs. Hopefully, I can put some songs from the album on my blog for you guys to see. We have made almost half of our songs for the album. About 6 originals and 2 remixs.
Tessa's tips and tricks we learnt:
How to change the tempo or speed of the song.
How to and where to get free apple loops for Garageband.
See ya next week,
Tessa.

Stress and Tannenbaum's Star
Do you ever dread school tests or exams or do you have something worrying you and you can't get to sleep at night?
Well here are some things that we learnt to do when we are feeling stressed and can't get things off your mind.
You can take deep breaths to calm yourself or exercise to get some fresh air and take your mind off the thing you're stressing about. Another thing is to have fun and be social and talk to people.
We also were learning about Tannenbaum's model of giftedness which is the five pointed star model. It says you have to have each thing that on each point of the star to be called gifted in a area of talent but you don't have to have equal amounts of each.

You learn something new everyday!
Howdy folks,
It is nearly the end of the day here at Enrich ILT and we have been working on our discovering your past projects. I found out that one of my Nana's cousin won a gold at the 1972 Olympics. Well they do say you learn something new every day and I did.
We also carried on with passion projects. Anna and I created 3 more of our original songs and one remix. We are really coming along with our songs. We are learning how to use Garageband and how to make songs. It's also my last blog post for the term:(
See ya after the holidays,

Aurasma, Google, Wordle!!!
Kia ora everyone,
Today was another busy day at Enrich. We are well under way with our passion project and just recently started our discovering your past project. I attended all of the research and presentation tool workshops with all three teachers. With paul we were looking at Aurasma, which is an app for apple and android. With Nicola we were doing quick and easy tips on researching things on google. Finally, with Katie we were learning to use wordle. I have learnt some great new research and presentation. We also had to write a mid year reflection. But least it was only 4 questions and not 4 pages like last year.
See ya next week,
Tessa:)

A little bit Stressful!!
Hey Blog Readers,
Today at Enrich@ILT, it was a little stressful as we were started our passion project.
Anna and I were calling Djs and music makers for our project. That was the stressful part as all of them either didn't make their own music or they loaned their music gear out to people to use. But......
Paul gave us an awesome idea to call the audio production students at the S.I.T to see if we could have a visit there to see how they make their music.
We rang them but there was no answer so we are going to try again at lunchtime.
We can tell you what happens in two weeks when we're back here at Enrich@ILT.
Bye,
Tessa

Dj Tessa in the house!!
Howdy ya'll,
This week has been another jam packed day at Enrich. We have started our passion project. DJ Ann and I are going to make a cd of very our original garageband songs and design the cover. Hopefully we will be able to put it on itunes and become world famous-maybe!!.
Katie revealed the next project we are going to do in Discovery. We are going to be doing a project on discovering our past and what and how our family arrived in New Zealand. We also have to make a family tree and learn about our families culture and what we celebrate. I'm really looking forward to it!!
See Ya All Next week,

Busy as beavers!!
Hello Blog readers.
This is my first blog post for the term. I've missed you all.
So far today we've been as busy as beavers. Starting with a brief around passion projects, a quick fast game of chess and personal development rotations.
For personal development (formaly known as affective domain), I did Gayne and Renzulli's models of giftedness and just recapping on what they mean.
Passion Project planning started today. Anna and I are going to do a cd full of songs that we will make on garage band. Then we are going to design and make the cd cover. We are hoping that when we finish it, we can put it on itunes so you guys can listen to it!!
See ya next week!!
