Pirate Names!!

Well!! I certainly was wrong when I said that I was finished doing my lino prints.  I actually needed to finish off all my prints that are blue and green and print the Lorax on.  I needed to cut out the Lorax but I cut out the stump underneath him instead.  Since the sun was facing the Lorax in the print, the stump that he was standing on should look brighter than the stumps behind him.  Did you know that everyone on Friday has a pirate name.  Mine is: Bowman Sea Head Jones!!

Too much ink.

Maybe I'm right. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I should just get on with my blog. What do you think? You would agree with me. Passion time today: The three overprints that I did today, didn't work because there was too much ink on my lino block, and the lino block is getting a bit thin because I have cut too much out of it.  The solution?  I am just going to stick to a double-coloured print instead - three would be too much.

That Lorax!!

Hi, I'm at Enrich, and I'm ready to tell you about my day. Started of with the usual - Roll and Admin. Then passion time. Man, that Lorax is really getting on my nerves!!  But I'm on my third colour over print at last. Next we had morning tea - not talking about that and that is that. Now lets get on with the story. The gifted person I'm studying is Steve Irwin - as  you probably know. And so now I'm doing this blog for you, and the rest of the world, to see and read. 

Bye for now


Daniel.

What a day...

Hi everyone.  It's Friday again!  I started my day at Enrich with passion time.  My Lorax again... Today, I spent time chiseling out the grass, and by the time I did that, I only managed to get one test print done.  It was my first triple-coloured print.  The Lorax was orange, the grass was green, and the sky was blue.  My next step, for next week, is to complete my 12 triple-coloured prints.  After morning tea, I got stuck into my study on Steve Irwin.  I finished off my research notes, but I might need to check with one of the teachers to see if I really am finished!

Blue and Green and Blue and Green all over!!!

Dear blog readers. Today I did more work on my lino printing during passion time.  By the state of my face and my favourite FOX jersey, I have been working with blue and green ink.  I'm not sure what Mum will say when she picks me up today! I was printing over my 12 original prints to make them a multi-coloured print.  The next stage for me will be taking off the grass on my lino block and I will be able to continue multi-coloured printing next week.

Well! Well! Well!

Still haven't given up on me yet I see. Well you're probably in for a surprise. You see, I've had an amazing day. It started off with some rotations.  I went to Nicola and did a multiple intelligence test.  My top three strengths were: Self, Musical and Language smart.  I was quite surprised that I came out so strong in music, as I haven't been doing it that long - I've only started this year.  After morning tea, I had passion time.  I finished off doing all of my lino prints of the Lorax.  My next step is to take off another layer of my block and to have a go at multi-coloured printing using a print I've already done.

Busy! Busy! Busy!

Hello! Hello! Are you ready for another episode of ' My Day At Enrich?` Well, you must be so I will start.  Today we started of with some chess. I played two people and lost  the 1st one and stalemated 2nd one.  Stalemate is when you have both only got the kings left on the board so no one can win.


After chess, I did a workshop. It was a workshop on Prezi, a really cool website that we may use for our work here at Enrich. So I advise you wisely to use that website.


Bye for now, Daniel.
