Where in the world?

"Where in the world is Steve-O the Stag?" Katie finished saying to the performance group and we all rushed off to the performance corner to practice our songs. This week we have a new song called 'Like an Eagle' by Carl Strommen link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=viA5MUsQ1C0.
Getting back to Steve-o the Stag. We did a Where in the World keynote today, which means the Enrich teachers make a keynote to do with a famous person & we get about ten clues to try and find where they are! This time the person was Steve-O the Stag(Southland Stags mascot). I got most of the answers and I really hope that they are right. Wish me luck!
                                               

Until next time , Blog you later:)
 

"Is there Life on Mars?" We all finished singing. Today we sang a new song called "Life on Mars?" This is the chorus:

"Sailors fighting in the dance hall. Oh man! Look at those cavemen go. It's the freakiest show. Take a look at the lawman beating up the wrong guy . Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know he's in the best selling show. Is there life on Mars?"

This was part of our performance session today with Nicola.  I quite like this new song - it's got a few quiet parts mixed with loud parts.  We will be singing this at Wachner Place sometime in the near future.

Blog ya later!

" Oh my god" we all started singing. 

 You're probably wondering what I am talking about , let me explain; ok so today I did performance group with Nicola and we got two lyric sheets. The first one we sang was "Don't stop me now" by Queen, and the last one was Gin Wigmore's "Oh my".  I love both of those songs and we might be performing them in Wachner place! We practiced both songs three times! We were going to do a song by Guy Sebastian but we didn't have time. I wish we could have. Oh well never mind.

Thats all from me this week.

Until next term,blog ya later :)

Talofa readers. Today we did talent development / passion time. I chose the performance group with Nicola which is part of talent development. First we counted to 20 in different emotions - that was called H.A.S.H (Happy , angry , sad and happy again.) Next we went away for 10 minutes to think of a song for our audition. If we didn't pass the audition we couldn't be in the performance group :(. When it was my turn I chickened out and so did Tara but we got a second chance. Nicola said we had until the end of lunch time to sing to her. I sang at lunch and so did Tara. Tara sang "Call Me Maybe" by Carly Rae Jepsen and I sang "What makes you beautiful" by One Direction. We both got in :). Phew! Any way I had a great time today!

Blog you later :)

Have you ever wanted to be a bird? Thats what I thought about today when we went to the avery at Queens Park. I guess your wondering why in the world we would be at Queens Park today, well we were there to study and find patterns. Natasha and I were in a pair and we found 59 different patterns on the way to and in Queens Park.


We spent an hour and a half taking photos. Which means we had to have morning tea at Queens Park. While we were there we looked at four different types of patterns , the four types were: beauty , order , strength and survivability. An easy way to remember it is B.O.S.S!





It was an amazing experience , I loved looking for patterns! Blog you later!

beauty

order

strength

survivability

I could hear everybody writing frantically as Jenni was rolling the dice and I was crossing my fingers that two would come up. Finally it was the last roll and I was crossing my fingers so hard that they almost fell off!

Yahoo, it was two! We won - Olivia and I won! Okay I guess you're wondering what in the world I'm talking about? Today for my talent development taster I did probability maths and we were guesstimating what number on the dice would come up the most. Olivia and I guessed the number two and amazingly it did (just so you know she rolled it 50 times!)

Next we guessed what lolly Jenni would pull out the most Olivia and I chose Banana and again Olivia and I guessed right. Jenni also pulled them out 50 times! After that we chose three lollies - I chose two bananas and one strawberry:)  

Next we did the dice rolling again ,I picked two again, I came second last :( oh well doesn't matter. 

Until next time , bye!

Hey guys sorry, I didn't write last week but I'm back now :)

So today we did talent development tasters which means that we chose one taster. The options were : art with Darryn, maths with Katie, or music with Nicola. So I chose music and we did the song "My life would suck without you" by Kelly Clarkson! I loved it.

The words are this:

"Guess this means your sorry you're standing at my door ,guess this means you take back all you said before ,like how much you wanted anyone but me ,said you'd never come back but here you are again 

Cause we belong together now yeah 

forever uni-ted here somehow yeah

you got a piece of me and honestly

my life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you.

Maybe I was stupid for telling you goodbye, maybe I was wrong for trying to pick a fight I know that I've got issues but your pretty messed up too , either way I found out I'm nothing without you.

Cause we belong together now yeah 

forever uni-ted here somehow yeah

you got a piece of me and honestly

my life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you.

being with you baby is so dysfunctional I really shouldn't miss you but I can't let you go, oh yeah

(dance break)

Cause we belong together now yeah 

forever uni-ted here somehow yeah

you got a piece of me and honestly

my life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you.
