Passion Time

KIA ORA

Today in Passion Time I decided to continue writing and editing my song. Alana (one of my teachers here at Enrich) showed me how to put music to my song. I had a variety of instruments, feelings of music and styles of music to choose from which was very hard. I decided to start off with an instrument, so my first instrument I clicked on was the piano because my song was kind of slow and it was a love song so I thought that was a good idea. So I clicked on the piano button and then a whole bunch of styles of piano popped up and I said to myself, "WOW,This might take a while".  So it seems all of them were AMAZING but I only chose two and used them as the introduction. I moved on to three others but it was very hard because the music or instruments were either too fast or too slow. That got very frustrating trying to find a piece of music that would fit my song just right but it was so hard, all the instruments and styles of music so many choices but nothing would work. Maybe next week I might find something, wish me luck.

Technology Challenge







I'M BACK!!!!!!!!!

Today here at Enrich we did another technology challenge. Have you ever heard of a man called MacGyver? Well today our technology challenge was to make a piece of equipment that would help MacGyver grab a hammer and a chisel that is two meters away from him. Most of you might say why doesn't MacGyver just grab the hammer and chisel by himself but MacGyver needs the hammer and chisel to break his way out of some new concrete before the concrete dries up, because MacGyver's feet are in concrete!  So today in class we put ourself into groups of three, my group had Kady Cheanna and Me! Our device was good but it wasn't heavy enough! so we didn't win but it was good fun.
