Today at Enrich Thomas, Kieran and I completed most of the earthquake safety video. So far we are just editing it in iMovie HD and we have made a song and credits. We hope to finish it soon to get it on our blogs.

Civil Defence Questions

These are the questions I typed up to ask the Civil Defence for when Kieran, Thomas and I went to the Southland Civil Defence headquarters. We went there to gain information for our earthquake safety video. We learnt lots about the HQ and got our questions answered.

Gifted Awareness Week 2011

This week it is Gifted Awareness Week. Here at Enrich we had to describe what we think being gifted means. I think that being gifted means you are talented in certain areas, example: I am good reading, writing and maths but I'm not that great at PE. It also means that you can know lots of things others don't, but you don't know everything. I am lucky to come to Enrich because if I didn't I wouldn't know about my talents and I wouldn't be able to use them so well. At Enrich I have also learnt lots of different ICT skills and even computer programming.

Passion Project

This term my friend Thomas and I plan to make an earthquake safety video for 0-6 year olds. It will show what to do and what not to do before, during and after an earthquake. I have already contacted the Civil Defence for information. We're still working on where to film it. After it is finished I will upload onto my blog so you can watch it.

Current Affairs Week 1

This is my Current Affairs for Week 1 Term 2. It was all about the tornadoes in the the US over the school holidays. We answered questions like what do you do if there is a tornado and how a tornado forms.

Interactions

This is my interactions sheet which shows what I thought/think about interactions. The first part shows my prior knowledge and then the second part is my new learning about interactions. The reason I changed my thinking was because at first I didn't know much about interactions but now I know quite a bit because we went for a ride around town and we had to write down all the interactions we saw. The next week we learnt that interactions are reciprocal actions (the meaning is on the sheet).

Simpsons Interaction Sheet

This is my Simpson's interactions sheet. We watched a treehouse of horror episode. Then we recorded some answers of what interactions we saw on the episode.

There was a combination of positive and negative interactions.

I learnt that it is hard to find some interactions because some are easy to find and others you need to go into detail to find.
