Today's chess game

Today Anna challenge me to a game of chess. As we started off Anna had a high chance of winning. We were three quarters through the game I was able to bring out my Rook. (The one that look's like a castle).
That's when  the game turned around for me. But the sad thing was Darryn said that we had to pack up for Talent development. I was shivering with fear. who had won by points? Just after I had said that to myself  Darryn came over and said. "Okay now let's see who has won this game." "Well Destiny you have won this game. Congratulations " Then I said YES!!! So if you want learn how to play chess go to www.chesskids.co.nz this website teaches you how to play chess.

Hi Destiny.
It was great to see you so focussed and interested during our writing session today.  You have taken on board the different aspects of story writing that we discussed today and used this as extra motivation to continue.  It was great to see you making adjustments to your writing today to make it clearer and easier to understand.  Keep up the great work.
Katie.

The Enrich Enviroment

• Here at Enrich we have an absolutely AMAZING environment with absolutely amazing staff and equipment. Here at Enrich we have the finest equipment. We have laptops, computers, art equipment, interactive-whiteboards, cameras, dinoscopes and this term we have just received 10 I-Pad 2's. Today in talent development my partner Hannah couldn't be here so I had to do today's work by myself. Anyway, today I have deleted our story and have made the story into a script and have done very well. So all I have to do is finish the script and print it out for Katie (our teacher). I have taken a copy home to jot down any other ideas that might come to me.

My Term Three Goal

This term at Enrich, we have had a change in the way we are going to do things.  We are going to work in our Talent Development groups from 9.30am - lunchtime each day.  In the afternoon, we have workshops that we have to attend, and "picks" that we have to chose from, as well as a before 9am task.  We need to get all of these compulsory and choice tasks completed and signed off by one of our teachers.  The workshops and "picks" change every 2 weeks.  This term my goals are to work well with others in my talent development group. I am going to help others as well as getting my own work completed.

Teacher comment

Destiny you certainly embraced the chance to be creative in your art talent development this term, and your mosaic looks amazing. You have also worked well on your own and in a range of groups with other students. You have been very interested in the ‘affective domain’ and in learning about what it means to be gifted and you have been managing your time effectively to make the most of the opportunities Enrich provides.
