Teacher comment

Sean, you have been incredibly self motivated and organised, throughout the duration of your passion project. You have kept an open mind toward the content and structure of your game, and on discussion with game experts, have made changes as you see fit. There has been a wide range of skills that you developed in order to produce a game of the calibre that yours is, I imagine you will call on these skills many times in the years to come. Keep striving towards the great things that you desire, and you will achieve big things!

My passion project rubric

This is my passion project rubric, it shows how I have done throughout my passion project and things the teachers could do next year to help the other students.

My passion project recorder

This movie tells you the process I have been through to get to where I am now with my passion project.

The board game box

Today I have got the base of my box done (for the board game). I am going to put in dividers, split the sides of the box and put on hinges so it makes a kind of chest.After that I will put a varnish over it so it 'tans' it and makes it shine. Finally I shall burn the title of the board game into the top and the sides and maybe paint a picture onto the top

Above: the picture and title that might go on top of the box

The board

Today I started making the actual board for the game and I have stuck it onto an A2 piece of card and I am going to get it laminated as well as bind the rulebook. Then I am going to make a wooden box for the game, engrave the title onto the top and then varnish it.

The game trial

This is my new board design☝and I did a trial of my board game today and it went really well, I did have to make some changes and I am happy I did trial it. Now I need to make the box and bind the rules and it will be finished!

Habits of mind assessment Term 4

Throughout my passion project I used lots of different habits of mind and here are of the main ones I used.

I have used ‘striving for accuracy’ when I had to design my cards and boards because they had to be near perfect.

I also ‘Applied past knowledge to new situations’ when I was writing the rules I used different aspects of games I had played before.

Last of all I ‘Thought flexibly’ when I re-designing my board I had to look at things a different way a lot.

Prior knowledge flipchart

Now at Enrich everyone is starting their passion projects, mine question is 'What are the key aspects of a board game and how do I make one?'. This is a diagram of the knowledge I already know about board games, at the bottom on the square there is a short list of good board games I already know.

Thinking assessment comic

This is my Thinking comic it explains were I would use creative and critical thinking and my habit of mind goal (thinking about thinking) at Enrich.

Sean you showed real enthusiasm for your art passion project and throughout you remained open to continuous learning as well as showing a high level of perseverance. You also took the opportunity to learn new sculpting skills as well as building on the skills you already had, and your charcoal drawing was exceptional, and this is an area that I would like to see you continue to explore.

My Art Evaluation

Hi, This time I have a keynote about my talent development, Talent development is one of the four corner stones of Enrich and it helps us develop what we are passionate about. We chose either Art, Computer or Science I chose art we focused our inquiry on American Indian spiritual masks. They followed the creator legend of the old crooked nose. They believed the masks were so ugly that they could scare away evil spirits. We made 2 of them one out paper māche and the other out of clay. All the masks of the American Indians were different because they dreamt the designs up in there dreams. This keynote shows how my thinking has changed throughout my learning.

Systems art work

This is a piece of art that represents how lots of parts have to work together to create a system. We used cogs to represent those parts.

Systems art

My partner Levi and I created a diagram based on the systems art that we have done. It shows how the process we did to complete the art relates to a system.

systems reflection

At Enrich we are learning about systems as our concept curriculum, it shows what I used to think about systems what I now know and what I still wonder.
