A jingle about a shapeshifting car
This week for writing we had to make a jingle about are new type of transport.
A jingle about a shapeshifting car
A car that turns into keys?
Or even into a fluffy dog
It's a shapeshifting car that turns into anything you want it to be
“Even a hamster?” I would say yes to all the things you can make it transform in.
Driving around in a shape shifting car and driving with no keys “ That would be cool!”
Well you can buy one today and cruise around in a shape shifting car.
You would be surprised how many would love the shape shifting car as their own. So come have a look and find your shape shifting car now.
I enjoyed making a jingle about my new type of transport.
Have you ever made a jingle?

The missing child
This week for writing we had to make a narrative story I did my on a missing child from a royal family by the way its not real.
The missing child from a royal family
So there I was hiding in my bedroom, scared to come out. The police were banging at the door. Apparently there was a person who stole a child from a royal family and they have been looking for the child for years. The police have been looking in people's houses. That's why they were banging on the door but I was too scared to open it. After hiding for hours my mum came home. “Honey where are you? ” My mum said, I came out of my closet running like I was scared for my life. I hugged her as tight as I could. “ There were police at the door” I said, hugging very tightly. “Police!” My mum shouted as she turned on the television and looked at the news. They said that they were trying to find the royal family’s child.
They said that their daughter was turning ten in 3 weeks and were desperate to find her. I was shocked because my birthday was in 3 weeks. They showed a picture of what she looked like when she was a baby and that picture looked exactly like me. I ran to my bedroom to do research about the missing girl and found out what she might look like and it turns out that she looked like me. That night I was lying in bed and thinking of that girl. That next morning it was a Sunday and my mum had work so I went to my friend's house and told her about what might have happened to me. We did some more research and found out that I could be the missing child because the child went missing on my birthday and my mum could have stolen me. After my mum picked me up from my friends house I asked her if I was adopted she said no but I was curious.
That night I was looking for my computer charger and when I looked in my mum's fancy white closet I found a brown old chest with a rusty key sitting next to it. I shut my mum’s closet and ran straight to my room and opened it in my bed. What I found shocked me. It was a letter saying that my mum owed this person 1 million dollars for buying me. I was shocked.
I kept on reading and it said that the guy stole me from the royal family and sold me to my mum but she didn’t pay. I hid the chest in my closet and went straight to bed. The next morning I got dropped off at school and told my friend what happened. We both had an idea to go and get the chest and bring it to the police station while my mum was at work on the weekend. That weekend we snuck into my house and got the chest and ran to the police station. At the Police station we got the chest and gave it to them. “Wow I can’t believe you guys figured the case out” the police officer said. That night the police showed up at my house and arrested my mum and took her to jail. The police officer took me to the castle and now I am back to my real parents who are also the royal family.
I enjoyed writing a narrative

The day I woke up with super powers
This week for writing the topic was about If I woke up with super powers
Plan:
N.L to narrate
R.T: Include characters
One morning it was the weirdest day of my life. I woke up and looked at the time “what time is it?'' I said. I looked at my alarm “Eight a clock!” I said in shock. Now I am in a hurry. I am going to be late for school and it was a school day. I wished I could stop everything in a flash or just teleport. In a flash I saw everything stopped. I never knew that I could stop time like that. I walked to the kitchen and mum was there. “ Good morning honey” My mum said with a smile. “Morning mum” I said. I ate my breakfast at the table and left in a flash. While I was walking I tried to stop time “abracadabra”I said as I saw if it worked. Nothing happened and I had to run all the way to school.
I was able to get to school just in time and not be late, but I was wondering why I had powers and how to control them. At lunch I told my friends about how I woke up and how I felt when I stopped time but they just laughed and didn’t believe me. That very next day I felt like no one would believe me, I didn't know whose powers these might be or if they were mine. I wanted to tell my mum but I had to keep this power a secret. It was the weekend and I had a party at Jump. I needed to try to see if I had more powers that might be useful. At the party I could hear voices in my head when I talked to someone, like it could be that I was a bad friend or they hated me. After the party I was in my bed writing about my powers. “So I have to mind reading I think and stopping time” I said to myself. I had to tell my mum “ Hi honey what is it” My mum said. “ Um I might have two powers,” I said. “What?” My mum shouted, “you should not be here, I don't want you in my house” she said in anger. “Wait” I said, “I said leave this house go pack now” she shouted at the top of her lungs. I had to stay at my friend's house that night. That night I felt scared and sad I didn’t know what to do. The next day I saw a poster on the supermarket window and I started reading “If you have super powers come behind the supermarket”.
I went behind the supermarket that day and I saw two kids that looked the same age as me and asked “Is this where the poster said?” I asked “ Yes” one of the kids said “ By the way my name is Louis” one of the kids “ and I am Sage” the other one said “ Hi you two I am Livia” I said. After a couple hours talking I asked what their super powers were and Louis had Super speed and strength and Sage had teleportation and could turn invisible. We said to meet at the park that next day. At the park we started getting to know each other and starting to get close. Years went by and we have continued to work together as a superhero team.
I enjoyed writing about me with super powers.
How would you feel if you had super powers?

“Hey, have you heard about when everyone was vegetarian?” said Luna. “No I did not” said Lucy. “Hey! You two stop talking, the teacher is talking” said Jenny, the teacher cleared her voice. “What are you guys talking about?” asked the teacher looking at both of them. “Oh you guys are talking about when everyone was vegetarian” said John looking behind. “Want me to tell the story?” asked John. “Sure we would love to hear it” said Luna and Lucy.
“Miss, they are talking in the back,” said Jenny. She looked around and smiled. “Could you tell us about when everyone was vegetarian?” said Tim. “I was just about to explain the story to you guys,” the teacher said. The teacher cleared her voice. “It was a long time ago in 2021 the government forced all people to become vegetarian.” “Really!?” everyone said, “yes let's carry on with the story” the teacher continued. “All the animals stopped getting killed and farmers were harvesting fruit and vegetables all year round. They were tired and hard working, but people were still angry. Protests started all over the country and the government said they will close the border if there are anymore protests.
The months were passing by and no animals were getting killed and if you dared to kill or eat an animal you would be sent to jail for your whole life. One man decided to kill a sheep and he went to jail the next day. No one could change the government's mind, but one man did. His name was Freddie, he was the one who snuck into the government's house, he went into the government's room and started saying random words to hypnotize her and it worked. Freddie left her there on the chair. He made the government change the rules and let everyone have meat but there was on problem Freddie made everyone the boss of them. Everyone tried to avoid Freddie only 15 people did not get hypnotized. Now Freddie is locked in jail for his whole life and the government changed her mind about people being vegetarian. “Thats it of the story kids” said the teacher that was a very long story said all the students the rung “Well thats the lunch bell kids see you after lunch” said the teacher.

She slowly put her hand on the phone “Hello?” she said frightfully. “I need you to come to me” someone said. “Why and where?” said Wonder Woman “At the alley next to your house” said the person. Wonder Woman hung up her jacket and looked out her window, very scared she didn’t know who this person was.
She packed her things and went to the alley way there she saw the Joker standing there with a smile. “Well hello Diana” the Joker said. Wonder Woman runs down the alley terrified to look back. She wanted to stop but she knew if she stopped she would die. The next day she had a mission to defeat the Joker she put her outfit on and flew at speed with her headband shaped like a boomerang. Meeting at turkey there was the Joker standing.
“Well Hello Diana '' the Joker said. “I am ready Joker”said Wonder Woman. The Joker tried to punch Wonder Woman. “Missed me” laughed Wonder Woman. “Hey!” said the Joker very angrily, Wonder Woman kicked the Joker on his hip. “Ouch” said the Joke and Wonder Woman laughed at him. The Joker punched Wonder Woman. “That was to pay back,” said the Joker. They both continued to punch each other until the Joker couldn't take it any longer. “I will come for you soon” the Joker said as he started to run away. “Probably not” said Wonder Woman with a cheeky laugh, she knew she had won this time.
I enjoyed writing about the Joker and Wonder Woman.

Should we open are borders
This week for writing are writing had to be about if we should open or shut are borders.
Opening statement:
Sequence of points: (Firstly, secondly, thirdly, lastly)
Concluding statement:
Facts and opinions:
Should New Zealand open their borders?
New Zealand was Covid free again until August. Should we open are borders if there is Covid in the country?. We have got many cases in the past days for example 83,82 and 75 and they all are increasing very fast. How we got all of these cases was because of the delta variant we are in lock down for another two weeks and what deltas are made of is sediment. Firstly,the case that got all of us in lock down was from Australia when we opened our borders to them, but we should have stayed closed until their cases got lower but we decided to open them. Secondly, the people who came over from Australia should have gotten a Covid test before they went on the plane so no Covid would be on the plane. Thirdly,if they did not have a Covid test then it would be hard to notice if someone had Covid. Lastly, we should learn from our mistakes of opening are borders to Australia.

Is kapa haka good for us?
This week for writing we were learning about is kapa haka good for us. I did some writing about this topic.
Have you seen the all blacks do the haka well the out a lot of effort into there haka to make then loud.
An other thing is kids when they join kapa haka they get to perfrom at the end of the year which is good for confidence.
Kapa haka alos is a part of moari culture and its good to share culture and in kapa haka you don't have to be in maori culture because its just taking part of something in the school.
Lastly did you know that most schools do kapa haka and they mostly all have there own haka.
I enjoyed writing about kapa haka being good for us.
