For the past few weeks we have been transforming our faces into cartoons!! This requires colourpick eyedropper and a video that I will put below. First we had to get the extension and watch a video that explained how to turn your face into a cartoon, once you had done that we had to make sure we couldn't see any white but I didn't do to well on that...

Drones deserve a position in our future (to persuade) - Writing

For writing recently we have been writing persuasive text to persuade someone to agree with me, and mine is that drones deserve a position in our future. While writing this text I learnt that debates and persuasive text go together because in debates you argue about something and then you have to both go away and make up reasons to decide which one is better.

Here it is:


Drones Deserve A Place In Our Future

Do you think drones have a place in our future? 

Because I strongly believe that drones deserve a position in our future. They have a hawk's eye view of the sky, they could make traffic better, they could be used to clear car pollution and could be used for safety rescue teams.


Firstly, I believe drones could clear up traffic because they could be used to deliver deliveries like for example companies could make drone deliveries. I also believe this because someday drones might be able to hold people and this could mean that there will be less people using cars and less traffic for those who still do. I strongly believe that drones will make traffic better by taking care of deliveries and that will mean less courier vans, less cars and less traffic. In fact drones might even be used to make flying cars because they can fly and might be able to hold someone someday.

Secondly, drones could help police and rescue teams by helping police search around unreachable areas. Rescue teams could be helped by drones because they would help find lost people because they are smaller and able to fit in tighter spaces. In fact rescue teams could even use them instead of helicopters for a sky view of the target. Police could also use them to follow criminals or track people, this could lead to helping many lost or hurt people. Do you now think that drones could help rescue teams and police?


Finally, drones could reduce car pollution. As mentioned earlier drones could clear up traffic and less cars means less pollution from cars. Cars also give greenhouse gases which could make global warming even worse. Car pollution is also bad for the environment and people are testing electric cars but what if we used drones? Drones could even be the thing that could stop global warming. Also drones might even be used to make flying scooters or bikes.

In conclusion, drones could help a lot of people ranging from police to people who hate traffic, drones also could clear up car pollution as they could replace cars. Drones deserve a place in our future because they will help a lot of people. So do you now think drones have a place in our future?

The evolution of scooters - writing to inform

This week for writing we have been writing to inform the reader e.g give them info about the topic like did you know that scooters were invented by kids? Have you ever done writing like this before? because we have done stuff like this in the past.



Here it is

The Evolution Of Scooters



Introduction

Have you ever wondered what scooters used to be like?



Well Scooters have changed a lot since they were first invented. Did you know the first scooter was invented by kids? Scooters have gone from wooden frames with roller skates for wheels to electric scooters controlled by your phone. You may have seen a lava, beam, lime or flamingo scooter on the footpath, these are electric scooters placed by people, so others can get to places without walking.




Appearance

Scooters have changed a lot over the years especially in appearance, scooters have changed colours textures and even wheels. Designs have changed too like how if you get a normal scooter one that you control by yourself (not electric) and compare it to a lime scooter (an electric scooter) the setup will look very different like a lime scooter is wider and bigger and won't fall over while riding, where a normal scooter will be smaller. Have you ever seen 2 scooters of different colours right next to each other, well if you haven’t often schools or parks will have a few scooters there. Scooters will feel different sometimes because of their textures, a texture is how something feels like something might be scratchy or smooth that would be a texture and a scooters handlebars or stand that you put your feet on might be textured. Scooters have changed multiple times, but it is possible many more changes in appearances are coming.




Types

Scooters have changed in types over the years. Scooters started out with scooters you probably will have seen which is a kick scooter, the scooter you propel by pushing your foot on the ground. A scooter you might have seen is an electric scooter that includes lime, beam, lava & flamingo scooters. These are scooters controlled by devices and the 4 electric scooters mentioned above are controlled by an app on your phone. You also may have heard of a moped a sort of motorbike like scooter it's a type of scooter used on roads because of its similarities to a motorbike.






History

Scooters have a long line of history because they were invented in 1817. Most people own kick scooters because electric scooters are expensive. Electric scooters often found on a sidewalk have been around for quite a while too. Scooters are also used for racing even though they aren’t as fast as motorbike or cars they are still used for racing. Scooters are now for not only kids nowaday as well, this means adults use them as well.



Conclusion

Scooters are an often human powered vehicle used to make getting from place to place easier, do you use a scooter to get from place to place faster?
