My Alex Rider story
Alex Rider was on the 9th spy mission and heading to New Zealand. He had been travelling for 5 hours until he had finally arrived.
When Alex got off the plane he was greeted by a strange man who said I am Kim jong un and you are Alex Rider. Yes I am your forest ranger. I will do as you command. Ok I will take you to the forest in my car then you will receive your instructions. During the car ride Kim jong un told Alex about the other forest rangers.
When Alex arrived at the forest Kim Jong- un told him that he had to find 7 special ingredients. The first one was called gropey gorge grass which makes the bomb more powerful and it is very rare. The only way to find it is to pick 5 bits of grass and one of them will be gropey gorge grass. You need 76 pieces. So Alex went to a grass paddock and started picking. It was very dull work after 7 hours he had finished.
Alex went back to Kim Jong- un and told him that he had got all 76 pieces of gropey gorge. Kim jong un was very happy with him and told him that he can come and watch how he put the ingredients in the nuclear bomb. Alex said he didn't want to see so Kim Jong Un said he could have some free time. So Alex went to do a bit of poking around when kim jong un went to the nuclear bomb Alex followed him and learnt how to unplug it. When he knew he called MI6 M.rs Jones answered and Alex told her what he had found out.
M.rs Jones sent a army with 17 spies when they got there Alex showed them how to stop the nuclear bomb. They thanked him and told him to leave. Alex went back to the plane and sat down while the spies were at work. It only took them 10 minutes but they had to escape and that took them about 1 hour because kim jong un came to check on the bomb so they had to do it up again. Once they were done they went back to MI6, another mission done.
2 days later Alex was a normal school boy again. Forbidden to tell a soul.

My scuba diving story
One day on Easter island 2 people could be found scuba diving they were Adolf Hitler and his wife. They were looking around for anything interesting when a statue of a person came out of the ground then they saw a twinkle of green light. They went over to see what was there and then found it a hole pile of emeralds. He went over for a closer look and then six men popped out of the statue.
Suddenly he found himself wearing handcuffs and getting dragged up to the surface. Then the six men pulled them onto the boat and tied them together. Just then a thought popped into his head it was his fault they had got captured he had gone closer to the emeralds it had been a trap.
Finally they were taken to shore put in the back of a truck and driven away. The truck stopped and one of the men took him to a building with a sign saying jail. He was waiting in the seating area when a guard came and took him to a cell. Then the guard told him that someone would come to see him. When the person came he said his name was Jack and said he was here to kill him. One shot of a bullet and he was dead.

This is my six sentence story
Once upon a time there was a 24 year old race car driver. He lived in a crowded city on the edge of China. He was the finest race car driver the world had ever seen. One day on the biggest race of all times he was practicing and two race cars came out of nowhere and smashed into him. He felt sad and angry at the people that crashed into him. He lost a leg then became the best Paralympic race car driver ever.

The life cycle of a box part 4
After the puppet show I decided to turn the box into a marble run. To turn it into a marble
run I collected lots of boxes and folded them and stuck them on the sides of the box. Once the marble run was done I got a container and put 3 different sized cups in it. If the marble fell in the container then you would get 10 points if it fell in the biggest cup then you would get 50 points the next cup you would get 75 points and the final cup you would get 100 points. You got ten marbles to try and get the highest score. The highest score I got was 310.

On my puppet I made a top hat, teeth, a tongue and eyes. My puppets name is Farmer brown and is a black sock.

The life cycle of a box part 2
I finished using the box as a play house and turned it into a restaurant. To turn the box into a restaurant I flipped it up on its side and then cut a hole into the side facing out then folded a bit out and put chairs under it to make a table. Next I folded the other flap up to make the roof. Then I cut a flap into the back to get the food from the kitchen. I created a menu then went around to collect peoples orders. After that I made their food and then they came when I called out their number. Then they gave me a star rating out of 5. I got 4.5.
The life cycle of a box part 1
The day before lockdown my family got a new couch which came with a massive box! So we turned it into a playhouse by cutting two flaps at the sides so we could get in and it would still close. When the playhouse was done we played shadow puppets on the wall because it was still dark. I leant how to make a dog on the wall with my hands. I put a sleeping bag and some balls in the playhouse. Me and my brother made a line down the middle so we had our own sides.

The scavenger hunt
During lockdown I made a scavenger hunt for my dad and brother. It was just in my house but was pretty hard! I made the clues myself and hid them in unusual places. It was fun to create the clues and then watch my dad and brother try work them out.

New Zealand Migration
These are some big moment's from New Zealand history. Like the Treaty of Waitangi, Early Polynesian Navigators arriving and the Early European Migration.
New Zealand was discovered by the Early Polynesian Navigators between the years 1270-1300. Early Polynesian Navigators used the sun, stars, birds and wave currents to sail to New Zealand. They started to explore around 1500 in the double hulled vaka.
The Treaty of Waitangi was an agreement between the Maori chiefs and the British Empire. Hone Heke was the first Maori chief to sign the Treaty of Waitangi. The Treaty of Waitangi was first signed on the 6th of February 1840. Over 500 Maori chiefs signed the Treaty of Waitangi. The Treaty of Waitangi was first signed at Waitangi then all around New Zealand. When the British came to New Zealand they stole the Maoris land and sovereignty.
Early European settlers came to New Zealand for two main reasons, the Otago Gold Rush and for more space and more land. The Early European settlers made a difficult muddy journey across the bridal path. It took 6 weeks to sail to New Zealand from England in the 1860's. When the Early Settlers came to New Zealand there was no resting it was just work.
There were lot's of big moment's in New Zealand history. That shaped the New Zealand that we live in today.

Early settler life
27 July 1860
The ship ride to New Zealand was uncomfortable because I had no space. We almost ran out of food but luckily we got there in time.
The jobs on the farm are things like washing, hunting, fishing and making things like soap. In most house holds here the women do the inside jobs and the men do the outside ones but on small farms sometimes the men and women do both the inside and the outside jobs.
I really miss you I hope I see you again. Are things still the same? I was wondering if anything had changed since I left? Sometimes I have night mares something bad happens to you. I am not sure I like it here anymore.
School is terrible here because everyone gets the strap there isn't really a way out of it. If the kids cry they will get the cane. It happens quite often. School is all's really hard and the teachers are really mean to them.
Sometimes things can be a boring because we have nothing fun to do. We sleep to try and have fun. Resting is what we all want at the end of the day.

How should we treat animals
I think we should be kind to some animals and a little bit not nice to others. But not hurt ones that don't have to. So we still have bugs and things like that because they can help us in some ways like bees make honey for us and if there were no bees we would have no honey. You don't have to kill spiders just because they are in your house you can just take them outside.

Empathy Village
We had to answer questions on the slates. And then we could decorate our house. With lofts, kitchens and bathrooms. I visited number 17 and I found out that he liked playing sports and gaming.
I would have given him a gaming sports toy.
I decorated the inside of my house with a loft, a kitchen and a balcony. I have a sunflower field, a tree and a lake. I used empathy in not breaking down other peoples houses.
