Chess

At the start of the year I knew nothing about chess but now I know were the pieces move, where they sit on the board and also what chess teaches you. Chess teaches you; new strategies, maths, to win and lose, it is also part a part of mental edge.

This is a photo of were the pieces sit on the board.

This is the order that the chess pieces go in; Rook, Knight, Bishop, Queen and last but not least The King. The pawns are lined up in front of all the pieces in a straight line. The aim of the game is to knock over the other opponents King. The other side is in the same order except it is the King then the Queen. The King can move in all directions but only one space at a time.The Queen is the same but she can move seven. The bishop can move diagonal seven spaces.The knight moves in a kind of complicated way, this is how; it moves two or one squares diagonally and then one square across.The Rook can move sideways, up and down seven squares. Last but not  least the pawn, the pawn can move forward two spaces but only on its first go, also it can move diagonal one square but only to attack.

Interactions

This term at Enrich everyone went on a Interactions field trip. We had about 3 or 4 parents. ( which included my Mum.) We went for a walk around town, down to the estuary and to a child care centre. We went so we could learn about interactions and the different places we could find them.

Here are some photos we took on the trip to show some of the interactions we saw.

Multiple Intelligences

This is multiple intelligences. It tells you what your strengths are and what you are not so strong at.

I am VERY strong at doing things with nature. I am not so strong with things like writing, music and logical stuff. There  are different things on the multiple intelligences wheel like nature smart, logical smart, musical smart, myself smart and people smart. Each different "smart" has a different colour eg: nature smart is Purple and musical smart is Blue.
