Photography

 

I did a photography workshop and I learnt how to take close up photos of objects. These are really close up shots which are called 'macro'. You need to set the camera to macro by pressing the tulip button. All  three of these photos I took in the garden outside Enrich.
After we took the photos we imported them and did a little bit of editing before we emailed them.
We also did long shots but I prefer macro because you can see the closeup details of objects.  

            

Chess

Today at Enrich I looked up www.chesskids.com and learnt that pawns are worth 1, Knights are 3, Rooks are 5,  Queens are 9 and Kings are worth the game. I also learnt that there are 64 squares on a chess board.  I also learnt a new strategy called scholars which involves a series of four moves to achieve checkmate. I am going to go and practice the new moves I learned with someone.
