Hi, my name is Katlyn. I am a year 6 and I go to Enrich every Tuesday. Enrich is a school for gifted kids. The four cornerstones are Affective Domain, Mental Edge, Concept Curriculum, and Talent Development. Affective Domain - we learn about ourselves as gifted people. Mental Edge - we do things like brain training. Concept Curriculum - we have been learnin about perspectives the last 2 terms. Talent Development - we learn about our areas of interest. I did photography this term.

Today the people in photography took a trip to Queens Park. We took lots of photos using different camera angles and settings. Then when we came back we imported our photos into iphoto then used the edit tools to make them look their best. Once we were done we chose our top three then emailed them to Katie. We then took photos using the green screen and put ourselves into one of our photos. It was heaps of fun.

Passion Time
Today at Enrich we did something called passion time. At passion time we get to do something we really enjoy or want to try out. We get to do almost anything we want to do (within reason). I did Pottery. Last week I made a clay mask but today I made a coil pot. A coil pot is where you make a circle base, then make some logs and attach them to the base. It is a lot of hard work, and it's harder than it seems. It was great.

WOW
Today we went to see the World Of Wearable Arts exhibit at the Museum. I thought it was pretty cool. They had touch screens near the exhibits so that you could see a clip showing what it looked like while it was being worn. They had lots of different outfits, but my favourite was called Into Thin Air. It was a giant face that lit up under UV light. In the clip the person wearing the face was wearing a black suit that doesn't show up in UV light so it looked like the face was floating. The face was in a small room which had UV lights, along with some other cool costumes. I had a great time.
