Last day!!!

Boo hoo it is the last day of Enrich for the year but luckily I am a year 4 so I am not leaving!! I am going to do a pmi for today's blog, that stands for plus minus and interesting.

First positive: This years positive moments were...  passion time, because I love exploring my passions which  were painting.  Meeting new friends like Norton, Claudia, Meg, Grace and Sophie. Wilson games, now those were fun!! Doing my mural!!

Now for my negatives: they were cleaning up every afternoon but I guess we had to, and no more negatives.

 Now interesting: learning about photography, painting etc.

 I have had a great year and I can't wait for next year.

Animal rights

Today for my must does and picks I did animal rights with Katie. First of all we wrote down what humans need to live I wrote water, food, air,house, heat, and sleep. Then we wrote what animals need to live I wrote water, food, house, care, and love.Then we watched a wee snippet of 'Babe' then we discussed what someone/something did and if it was nice or bad. Then we watched another snippet of 'Babe' and did the same thing. Then we discussed that animals have emotions and shouldn't be treated badly. I had a good time listening about animals and how they shouldn't be teated badly.

This time my group planned out on the laptop what we are going to tell the dentist next door because they work next door and we want to paint their outside wall. Then it was morning tea. After morning tea we watched a video about air pollution and the top 10 cities that have the most polluted air. We wrote down 2 facts about the video and 1 wondering.  My wondering was "Is it people making the city horrible, or is it the animals and the factories? After that it as lunch time. After lunch we played a Wilson game. The Wilson game was called Piccadilly Circus. You have to stand in a circle and pass the ball to someone else, but they can't be right beside you.  Once you've passed the ball, you sit down in that person's spot.  You weren't allowed to throw the ball, drop the ball, or talk.  Our best time with one ball was 1.06min.  Then we did our blog post and next I will do passion time then it will be home time.
