Saving the World!

In Writing we are watching interesting video clips and writing about them, choosing which point of view to take. This week we have watched Superman returning a lost camera and saving a few lives along the way. check out the clip and read some of our super writing...

Tyler - I was born with super powers and I use them to help people in need. I had a mission to give a guy his camera back.

Destiny-Paige - Ok, here I go. I had to give a camera back to someone. The note on the camera said "If found, return to Sam."  Now off I go!

Mathias - I'm going to deliver a camera to its rightful owner. WHOOSH! I take to the skies. What a beautiful sight! 

Grace - Here I am getting ready to blast off. I run as fast as I can and then I'm up in the sky. I go really high in the sky. 

Bianca - He flies through trees, water and over houses so you get a good view.

Divaan - I am called Superman for a reason. Because if they didn't have me, Superman, no one would save people. I have special powers that allow me to fly.

Jordan - I started to run but when I got to the steps I jumped and flew very, very fast. When I got to the bridge I went even faster and faster.

Reicoe - When I was flying I heard something. I saw something spinning and changing colour and going round and round. It was sirens! I quickly flew down and had a look.

Paige - They tried to shoot Superman but he put out his magic weapon. It was his hand. Then he snapped the boy's gun and pushed him down on the ground. 

Mathias - I see some robbers. Uh-oh. I drop. The robbers shoot. I put out my hand and deflect the robbers shots. I run to one of the other robbers and POW! punch him clean off his feet. I run to the other. SNAP! I break his gun in two.

Cole - Oh no! Burglars are on the loose! I better help the police. I flew down and then i took two steps. Both looked at me. One of them was shouting at me but I was bullet-proof so I raised my hand and blocked the bullets.

Jack - I saw blue and red flashing police lights so off I went to get the crooks. One of the crooks had a tommy gun and the other one had a pistol. They were both shooting at me but I was blocking the bullets with my hand, like a shield. I ripped the pistol out of the mans hand and snapped it in half. 

Aradia - As I was flying I heard police sirens blazing. I landed to see what was going on. Robbers! I stopped the robbers and broke their guns so they couldn't use them anymore. I flew off again into the nice, breezy air. I looked around me to see if there was any more trouble. There was trouble. There was a fire!

Sharnika - Oh no! There is a house on fire and there is a lady in it! So I saved her life. I picked her up and put her on the ground and she said to me "Thank you for saving my life."

Ezrah - I see a flaming building and then I hear someone calling "Help me, someone help me!" I quickly turn around just as the building explodes. I fly as fast as I can and I catch a woman. "Thank you so much Superman. You saved my life!"

Mathias - Whoosh! I take to the skies again. "Help! Help! Help!" A lady standing on a burning building. I wheel around. BOOM! The lady is thrown off the building into my arms. Once we're on the ground she thanks me.

Presley - As I glide into the air, over the buildings I see some burning with a lady trapped in it. I must fly down to save her. Oh, no! I hear a bang, she's falling! I'm going to get her. Now she's safe. I feel proud. 

Ana - "Oh no! There's a burning building and there's a lady! Let's go fast. Oh no! I'm going past the building. I will just go back now". BOOM! "Ahhh! Are you alright?" "Yes. Thank you Superman."

Nicholas - "Wow it's Superman! Thank you Superman. You're the best Superman."

Wyatt - "Hello citizens" he said. Then he flew up. Whoosh! Off he went, near the road flying upside down. Back up, then over houses and land. 

Julie - All the people got their cameras out and took a photo. When the girl said thank you, he said thank you too. Then he flew up, into the sky. 

Evangelina - At least he saved my life from the fire. Then he went off to go where he needed to go. I hope he can help other people too. When he went off he made smoke. I could smell the smoke. I hope he can have a rest. 

Bostyn - I was rolling over but I was still flying. I went over trees and houses. I eventually made it to the house where I fell on dried mud.

Bona - I flew back down and the man ran out. I flipped the camera over and winked at it. 'Is this yours?" I said.

Shekinah - When Superman returned the camera to the owner he messed up his yard so the owner was angry and happy at the same time. 

Rama - When I landed I made a crater in the mans yard. 

Mathias - I shoot down to the dirt covered yard. When I hit the ground CRASH! I create a giant crater. The owner of the camera rushes out of his house. "This is for you" I say, passing the camera over to him. "My camera he says. He watches me take off. 'Oh man," he says "My yard! Oh dang! Superman?"

    Wow!! Great writing Room 10. It sounds like superman was having a very busy day. Superman is a good name for him, he has lots of super powers. Would you like to have a super power? Which would you choose? I think that being able to fly (really fast) would be the best!

  2. Glad you enjoyed the writing Kelly. Thank you so much for keeping up with our blog and posting great comments. We used your idea for our writing and the students chose a super power. I wonder who will comment and share their ideas? I would quite like the superpower of being able to click my fingers and having certain mundane household chores done automatically - washing, dishes, ironing, cleaning windows etc. Now that would be great!

    It would be so great. If you could do all that Mrs Perry you would probably be teaching at Hogwarts instead of teaching muggles at Mahora!! Have any of you read about Harry Potter Room 10? They are some of my favourite books :)

    1. I may just check out those Hogwarts vacancies... Room 10 loved your comment and there was a resounding 'Yes' to reading Harry Potter books. Very popular!
