I woke up with powers! Writing w9 t3
Date: 20/9/21
Purpose:To narrate
Audience:Whaea Sharlee & World wide
Title: I wake up with different powers each morning
Introduction
Kia ora my name is Emma and this morning something felt weird. I had a weird feeling in my gut and I didn't figure it out till I got to school. Let me tell you the story from the beginning.
How it happened
This morning I woke up, got dressed and I went downstairs to my mum to see what was for breakfast. I sat down at the table and started munching on a bowl of fruit loops/cereal. I jumped into the car and popped my seat belt on and we went to school. As I was in class I was listening to the most boring book called 101 facts about why you should go to school. I got so bored I wanted to make the book fling. And what do you know it literally flung out the window. I obviously thought it was a coincidence but a while later I knew it was no coincidence.
Trying out my power
I sprinted off to the playground and tried to see what happened. I looked at a piece of bark and thought of it going to the grass and it did then suddenly I knew what it meant then I lifted a smirk on my face. It Meant that I had the power to move objects. I don't know how I got it but I am still happy about it. I used it for stuff like grappling on my lunch or drink.
Telekinesis
This power is called telekinesisI I wouldn't use it around other people or let anyone see me do it because they will probably treat you differently because of your powers. In my opinion I think that some powers can be useless but I figured out what is good about telekinesis the good thing about telekinesis is that you can make objects,people and things move example if I see a chair and then go out to it I think of it pulling out for me then it would move and that's the same with any other object it's basically moving stuff with your mind.
It all changes
I went home from school and got out of my uniform and then I started practising my telekinesis
Skills. 4 hours later I became a master at moving items so I decided to keep on going. But then it was bedtime. I woke up to a lovely morning and grabbed my spoon and started to have breakfast alone but that was whenI found
How i got the power
So I figured out that I got a power when I woke up because I had a dream where I got any superpower I wanted and in my dream of course I picked telekinesis so I guess my dream came to Life. Well I guess that solves 1 problem now I have to figure out how to get rid of it because I don't want it anymore i am getting tired of it and the more often i do it the more i will get used to it then won’t want to let it go so I will try let it go now.
Solving the next problem
Well I think I just have to wait till bedtime and keep it to myself. I'm thinking to wait till bedtime because it came in the morning after i had a dream about so let's hope i have a dream about it going away so it will go away.
Yay i Figured it out
I figured out how to get rid of it. I have to wait till the morning then it should go away because it came this morning so it should be gone tomorrow morning. In the morning I tried my powers and they were gone! I was so happy but when I went back to school we read 101 facts about why you should go to school part 2! I was soooo frustrated. I hope you liked this story about how Emma got her powers!.

The Portal In The Jungle
The Portal in the Jungle
15/9/21
RT:To paragraph
Audience:world wide
Purpose:To Narrate
Kia ora everyone today I will be narrating a story about The portal in the Jungle.
Let's get started!
There are 2 little kids about 10 and 8 year old wandering through a big green tall Jungle on a nice sunny hot day. Their names are Amy and Jake. Amy and Jake are siblings who always get along. Their parents have never seen each other fight,Argue or cause trouble but I wouldn't say they are two perfect kids and here is why.
Amy and Jake are in a forest and they stumble across a beautiful sapphire blue lake surrounded by rocks on the edge. It has beautiful white swans fluttering their wings and the lake looks like it was cleaned everyday. Amy thought it was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen,but Jake on the other hand didn’t care there was a log going across the Lake; it looked like an old log that had been there forever.
As they walked more and more they started to get cold so they needed a hot drink like hot tea Hot Cocoa or warm milk. They go deeper and deeper into the jungle after going across the old log to smell Kawakawa Tea. Jake and Amy decide to go over but first they got sticks because they thought that a stranger was there. Jake and Amy Adventured into the unknown.
As it grew darker and darker they saw something …. Strange. They saw a huge square hole that led to a different dimension. There were logs surrounding it with purple on the inside. They are kids and they are curious so of course they dived right in.
They dove into the portal and started to scream as they were twirling in mid air. Finally they landed but they both looked at each other in shock because they looked normal. They walked around and everything seemed normal besides one thing and that one thing was that they were not in the forest they were back at home. Their house looked different but they figured out where the portal took them.
The portal took them to the future. They were in shock but scared because they had no idea where the portal was so they did not know how to get back! Jake freaked out but Amy didn’t because she didn’t know anything about it. Jake told Amy and she freaked out.
After Amy’s tantrum that went on for 10 minutes they went to look around for the portal to get back. But Amy declined. She wanted to wander around to see what will happen as she grows up. Amy's name should have been wondrous because that is all she does. Like I said before, I wouldn't call them pearl perfect kids.
As they walked around drinking their warm kawakawa tea they heard their mother scream because we still hadn’t come back yet they realized that it had only been 40 minutes into the future and that is why their mother screamed. They rushed around looking for the portal and Jake found it. He shouted AMY I FOUND THE PORTAL. Amy came in painting and when she returned to Jake she looked like she ran a marathon. They both quickly jumped through the portal panting and hoping that their mum wouldn’t be mad.
As they retrieved back to the Jungle Amy and Jake went to go find home. They sprinted to their neighbors house then they knew that they were close then they got to their house but no one was inside and the door was looked. Jake and Amy went back to their neighbors house and asked if they knew where their parents went. Their neighbor said “no sorry”. Amy panicked and Jake was stressed out. Amy and Jake wandered around looking for their Whanau/Family. They go around looking into the backyard to see their parents gardening. they sprinted to the door and rang the doorbell. Their mother answered and the kids ran in and hugged them.
The end

Wonder woman first person writing
1st person writing Narrative Hero/Villain
RT:Paragraphing
Audience:world wide
Purpose: To Narrate
Kia ora it is me Ngarea and today i will be writing a 1st person narrative about wonder woman so let's get started.
Hello i’m wonder woman and my purpose is to save people from villains and protect the world.A villain i have faced is Harley Quinn and she was feisty and she went hard out on the attack and she got so mad that she called in the joker I wasn’t afraid,Harley Quinn and the joker came up at me and attacked me but I dodged there attacks but they did eventually knock me out. But I got up and I fought back because I’m wonder woman. I do not give up that easily. So when I got up and fought back the left I was proud of what I did and I knew it was the right thing to do but there was a feeling in my stomach that something was wrong. It felt like butterflies flying around in my stomach but it also felt like I fell off a cliff. I couldn’t figure out what it was so I just left it.
What is a villain? Well most villains are superheroes enemies. Villains cause mischief and sometimes the hero may attract villains to come. Us heroes save people from villains because villains are no good, they are mischievous and cause trouble. Villains are made for being our/superheroes arch enemies. No one likes villains; they keep on bothering people and us superheroes. That's why we have superheroes because some people/heroes have to protect the world. Us superheroes save the world,we are like a shield to the world making sure we stay safe.
A little bit about me is that I'm a superhero (of course) I sometimes work with the justice league (well it is because I am in the justice league.) The powers that I have are superior strength, speed,,agility, I have the ability to fly and l can turn stuff invisible.
I have an invisible jet that I mostly fly in. When I am in my invisible jet no one will be able to see me through the jet. I come from books and movies. I am a superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics.
Being a superhero is quite hard when you have to fight villains and bad guys but being a superhero can also mean that you are doing something good for the world but being a villain is doing something bad for the world. I am a compassionate, caring, stubborn, opinionated, highly competitive, outgoing, immortal Amazon and an amazing person.
Thank you for reading this piece of writing about Wonder woman. I hope you enjoyed reading this. I wrote about Wonder Woman because she is my favorite superhero. Wonder Woman is my favorite superhero because I like how she has an invisible jet and how she saves lots and lots of people and I love her outfit and powers

Should New Zealand open the border?
RT:Paragraph
9/2/21
Kia ora I am Ngarea and today i will be explaining to you about why we shouldn’t open borders let's get started.
I think we shouldn’t open the borders because if people are sick they might come to New Zealand and make more family’s sick and that is not good. Also the borders are good and It keeps us safe and makes sure that we don’t get sick and end up going to Hospital or worse.Opening borders is a big risk for people that go out because they might catch covid.
It may be good to open the borders but I think it is not good. For example if you and your family live far away then you could travel to visit and see each other. Opening the border’s can let people see each other but you should not travel if you are sick.
The borders are meant to keep us safe and to prevent sick people coming over and making someone else sick then they will get their family sick then it could go on and on but keeping the border closed will keep us safe and we will stay protected.
Having borders is important because if there were no such thing as borders then a lot of people would be sick and that's bad. But since we have borders we are protected and safe and that is the same reason why we have lock downs.
To the people reading this in the future, what i am trying to tell you is that borders are good for you and if you ever hear of covid 19 or corona virus then stay home and don't go out because it is contagious and you could easily get covid.
I believe that doctors and people who work in the hospital are risking their lives to save others from covid 19 since it is so contagious the doctors or the people who work in the hospital could get sick.
So that is why I think that it is good to have borders.
