No, no, no, where's 16! Oh no I'm going to run out of time to finish! Ohhhh what to do, what to do! "STOP!" roared Darryn as he made a halt to stop the timer at one minute.
So you probably have no idea what I am talking about which is a real shame, well not really because we did it for NOTHING! Except for putting us under anxiety! Like really I thought this was a Gifted school not a Goofy one!
So what we had to do is find as many numbers as we could (of course they were jumbled up) and circle them IN ORDER from 1-60. Most people got up to 20 and a little more. We did it four times and on the first go I got 19! Second go I got 15, only because I was struggling to find 16 and that wasted 10 seconds of my time which made me very irritated. On the third go I got 20, and the last and final go I got 22! Yeah! My personal best! But, no, no, no there was this one girl called.....Neave and she got 29! 29! The last go was in 30 seconds and she still got that unbelievable time, that's just incredible, so go her! That task was called Perfectionism.
Next Fun Task:
Drum roll please................DRAMA!
Yay! Even though I don't really like Drama I love giving things a go and putting myself out of my comfort zone like last year when I did Drama, I was so nervous but I still got there.
And so one of the activities was to get into a circle and hold hands like a big jubilant family (not!) and choose some people to have a hoop on them. Then what you would have to do is get the hoops all the way around the circle with out letting go of your hands or letting the hoop fall to the ground, and if you didn't you would have to stand back and watch. But there were only a few people that had to watch but not much. Of course as gifted students of Enrich we accomplished that task.
Task 2:
Musical Bumps!
A bit like Musical chairs really but a twist. When the music stops you must fall to the ground and cross your legs as fast as you can. The last person to do that sits back once again and watches. I got up the last 10 people which was a pretty superior effort really. The winner(s) were Natasha and Jemmimah!
Task 3:
Musical Bumps with a new twist:
Well the task is exactly the same but joined with another person back to back. The rules were you had to land with crossed legs on the ground at the same time and back's together, not together together but touching. My buddy was Reina and we were hopeless, I really have to say.
Ta Da,
Drama Tasks complete!
So that was a description of part of our day.
Until next Friday, Goodbye.
Clara, I have linked Enrich to our class blogroll so that the other students in the class can read your posts.
ReplyDeleteI wish I had had these sort of activities at school. It makes the learning much more interesting. Mum
