Photography

Today I did photography for Talent Development. It was fun. We had to take photos, but first of all we had to choose a theme. I couldn't think of one so I chose Random. Then we had to go outside and take photos that matched our theme. For me that meant taking different pictures from different angles, like birds eye view and mouse view. Then we had to upload them and edit them. I had a great time.

Hi Katlyn.

It was great to see your enthusiasm for photography at Enrich on Tuesday.  Your contributions to our discussion about what makes a great photo showed that you were thinking about a variety of aspects.  Your organisation with your Must Do and Pick sheet is clear to see - you set yourself goals and use your time wisely, which enables you to complete these tasks to a high standard.  Keep up the fantastic effort Katlyn.  Katie.

Photography

Today at Enrich we got to choose our talent development groups. There were 3 we could choose from. One was Drama, one was Photography and one was Maths.  I chose photography with Katie. We are going to enter the MADE awards in either the static images category or the manipulated images category.
This morning we had to look at some pictures and make a P.M.I for them. It was a lot of fun and I can't wait to start taking some pictures.

Scamper

Today at Enrich we did something called scamper.  Scamper stands for substitute, combine, adapt, mega or mini size,  put to other uses, eliminate and reverse. We got given a bunch of different objects and we had to use scamper to take photos of the object from different perspectives and to look and things from outside the box. Next week we will be putting the photos onto a keynote to make our own scamper clips. I had a lot of fun.

Biopoems

Today at Enrich we did a lot of stuff, but one of my favourite things was Biopoems. Biopoems are normal poems, except they are about yourself. Some of the things we had to write down was our name, our fears, our achievements. We also had to write down adjectives to describe ourselves and what we want to see happen.

It was a lot of fun, even though it was quite a bit of work.

Taster Sessions

Today Enrich has been fun so far.  We got must do's and pick's worksheets which keep track of our learning. We also got to do taster sessions. They were thirty minute rotations which were little tastes of what talent development was going to be like. Darryn was teaching art, Alana was teaching maths, and Katie was teaching science. Each of the rotations were really fun.  For maths we were looking at canstruction, and for that we had a look at how lego bricks fit together. We were measuring them and looking at how much we needed to fill a certain amount of space. For art we were experimenting with watercolors. We had a lot of fun with trying out different colours and techniques.  I was pretty proud of my picture of a sunset. Last but not least, we did science. We were making tornadoes in a bottle, and it was really interesting to see how they worked. 


Today I had a lot of fun.

Hi Katlyn.
I have been so impressed with your organisation and time management this term.  You proceed with your Must Do and Pick sheet with such a positive attitude, prioritising what needs to be achieved within your day.  Your blog posts are so detailed and you have shared so much with regard to our science talent development this term.  You always make the most of the opportunities that are available to you at Enrich and have completed talent development in a range of areas this year.  Well done on a very productive term.
Katie
