Narrative writing

Hi everyone, welcome back to my blog today I am going to be talking about my narrative writing. For the past two weeks we had to write a narrative writing story and it had to be about the future. I chose to do my story about designer babies and I really enjoyed making my story the teachers gave us a lot of time to do this. I am really proud of what I have completed and I am excited to show you what I have wrote. Here is my story....

Narrative writing - Future

Name: Felicity

Problems: Ethical issues - Future

BREAKING NEWS! Scientists have discovered how to make your very own designer babies, do you think this could work or could it be a complete fail. Should we be able to make your own designer babies with a machine or shouldn’t we. We are going to chat with one of the scientists who goes by the name Suzie that decided to make the designer babies. “I decided to make the designer babies company because some people can’t have children and we need to make more room in the world for more children”. “ Thanks for that Suzie thank you for watching New York at 6pm”.Dustin had watched the news and came straight over to Maddies house Dustin said “ Did you see the news?” Maddie was confused she watched the news and she was surprised. 

“We need to get to the bottom of this” said Maddie angrily.

Dustin gave Maddie a nod. Dustin thought to himself why did they randomly make these designer babies with no weeks in advance to tell us. They researched designer babies and there was a video, well an ad, to advertise designer babies and it had over 1 million views! So they both decided to go to the designer baby shop and have a look. They walked to their electric car and they could see rubbish on the ground, but it wasn’t rubbish it was an advertisement for the designer babies, they had the best features anyone could have. But they weren’t real humans they were practically robots they didn’t have feelings they would just be perfect and our world is not perfect. 

They got to the designer baby shop and it was filled with so many people and everybody had their ipads and tablets and phone, because they had written and drawn how they want their designer baby to look like. Maddie and Dustin had a look around the shop and there was a lot of technology involved but there was some science to it too. Both of them tried to get in the door but there was too many people. They had seen when the designer babies were done they were always being perfect and they weren’t different at all.

Dustin was walking along the footpath he was looking around at all the designer babies but he had realised that all of the real kids had gone. He told Maddie and she had to get all of the kids back but they were figuring out a way that they could get the kids back and stop this designer baby crisis. Maddie came out to get the mail and she saw that the mailman had dropped something and it was a book so she looked and it said products. She thought “products?” what does that even mean? So she had a look in the book and it said all the products that they used to make the designer babies. That book is just what she needed, she told Dustin everything and they had an idea.

They went to the designer baby shop and she showed people in line about the book and she reminded everyone about their real kids and that they are much more useful and loving, but they weren’t getting the word out to everyone. So they decided to make an advertisement why we shouldn’t have designer babies and that we needed to get the real children back. But Maddie saw that at the end of the book it said “ The children are landing at 3pm in the new town” But Maddie thought what new town? But she realized that there was a new town it was called Archville so she and Dustin went there and did the advertisement. They saw this big bubble thing and there she was, Suzie the mail lady but she was also the scientist that made designer babies. So Suzie got ready for the flight to head off but Maddie had talked to the pilot all about the designer baby crsis. Suzie explained that she wanted to take over the world. But little did she know, Dustin was recording her and posted it on youtube and people were furious.

Dustin and Maddie saved the Children and got rid of the designer baby crisis and finally everything was back to normal everybody had their kids back. Dustin and Maddie were sitting down and they switched on the t.v. They heard “ Thanks to Maddie and Dustin all of us have been saved” They were so happy to reach out to everyone and the world to be happy again.

Thank you for reading my story :)

Novel Study

Hi everyone, welcome back to my blog today I am going to be talking about my novel study. My novel is outlanders and we have to make these slides and we have to write what we have seen or read. The teachers made this reading comprehension and I have done two slides and I have reading for the past two weeks. This book is really exciting and I am excited to read the rest. Here is my task that I did but i have only done two slides and I will do another blog on all the rest.

Have you done any of these reading slides?

Winter sport

Hi everyone, welcome back to my blog today I am going to be talking about winter sport. Every Thursday the year 5 - 8s go to winter sport and there is football, rugby, hockey and netball and we had to choose one of these sports and I chose netball. We had a trial for what team we would be in and there was the a,b and c but I'm in the a team. In the a team we have so many great players and I enjoy doing all of the tournaments I'm excited to do winter sport next year.

Narrative Writing Task

Hi everyone, today I am going to be talking about my narrative writing task. The teachers assigned us to do a narrative writing template planner. On the planner we had a climax, rising action, orientation, falling action and resolution. This is our planner to our actual story that we are going to be writing. But we have to write about a ethical issue and your ethical issue could be anything bad that is happening in the world and it could even be in the future. My ethical issue is designer babies because scientists could be making machine that could make your very own designer baby. Here is my plan...

Mathematical minds

Hi everyone, welcome back to my blog today I am going to be talking about mathematical minds coarse. Over the past few weeks we had to do this mathematical minds coarse and it was all about that you can have a growth mindset and you can get better in maths if you don't give up. In lesson 1 we learnt that if you try hard enough in maths you can do well. I watched this video in lesson 1 and they asked people how much like liked maths some people said they enjoyed it and some people said they didn't enjoy it and they didn't get it. Lesson 2 was about maths and our mindset and we had to think how maths could be more fun and enjoyable. Lesson 3 was about mistakes and speed and you don't need to be fast in a test to be good in maths and mistakes are really good in maths cause you can learn from them. Lesson 4 was about number flexibility, mathematical reasoning, and connections and this helped with my maths knowledge. Lesson 5 was about number patterns and representations and we learnt how to do the number patterns right. For the last lesson lesson 6 was about maths in life, Nature and work. This coarse was very helpful and I learnt a lot of maths. I learnt that I can do better in maths if I work my hardest and actually try.

Science experiment

Hi everyone, welcome back to my blog today I am going to talk to you about my science experiment. In the kaupeka hub we have been talking about science and we had to do four science experiments structure, matter, heart rate and water cycle. But today I am going to talk about structure. For structure we had to make a good structured and strong bridge. We could only had a certain amount of materials and they were, fifty popsicle sticks, blue tack, tape and paper. We had to make it in 15 mins and we were all in partners. For my bridge I thought about the strongest shape which is a triangle but then I went for a different method and I put most of the popsicle sticks at the bottom and we tried to put most of the weight on the sides so the bridge could hold. Finally it was time for the test the first test was a white board marker and we didn't pass the test because it needed to be stronger in the middle too. For this science experiment I learnt that maybe if I did use the method of doing a triangle bridge it may have worked but I might do that next time. I really enjoyed this task it was really fun and I hope to make my bridge stronger next time.

Create task - Reading

Hi everyone today I am going to be showing you and talking to you about my create task in reading. For reading we had to read a book called Square Eyes and we had to make predictions about the text and the title and the book. We are reading Square Eyes because of our PBL and what the future will hold. For our task we had to make three predictions then we had eight boxes to summarise the story.

Have you ever done a story like this?
