Level 2 At School
Two weeks ago, I came back to school at Level 2! Everyday we do Writing as our first subject, next we do reading on our Chromebooks. After that we do Maths and finally we do our Super me poster, then we all go home at 2:30 but some people go early so they can pick up their brothers or sisters and leave with their siblings. We do this every single day like a morning routine! We wake up, eat breakfast, brush our teeth, put on our school uniform, pack up our bags and then we go to school at 8. Then we go inside the school, say hi to Mr Burt then we go to our class, we take our lunchbox out, put our bag away and we get something to do. Everything has changed since the coronavirus/CODVID-19 ever came, I don't like how somethings has changed because ever since the coronavirus/CODVID-19 ever came around lots of people had to wear masks, wear gloves and had to stay 6 meters away from each other also we had to cough and sneeze in our elbow like we did when the coronavirus/CODVID-19 wasn't here. The changes at our school are when its lunchtime it's shorter then usual and we only have half an hour to play! So that's the reason why i don't like the changes of our planet.

Spider Hero
Me and my family are worried about one thing. That is CODVID-19/ coronavirus. The reason why we are afraid about CODVID-19 is because we don't wanna get it and there is no cure to save us from dying! In the middle of the night at my house I was wondering "what shall i do about this dangerous virus?" And then I though of getting Spiderman! Then I had to find where the danger was. Then I went undercover as an old lady so when Spiderman saw me trying to cross the road he'll come and helped me. And I did exactly that and he actcually came! He helped me cross the road and she/I said "Thank you young man" and he said "No problem miss." Then I said "I have a question for you," and he said "what is it?"Then i took off my disguise and said "can you please help my family be safe from the coronavirus?" And he said "yes," after 6 months the coronavirus was banished then Me and my family celebrated and we all said "Thank you Spiderman for keeping us safe for 6 moths until the coronavirus went away we really apprechiate it." and he said "aww your gonna make me blush."

The Last 2 Parts of How Cars Changed Our World.
One Car, Two Car, Three Car, And More.
As the years went by, cars and petrol become cheaper. People could buy second- hand cars, too. These days, there are well over three million cars in New Zealand.
1. Cars make it easier to carry things.
2. In New Zealand, hundreds of people are badly hurt or killed in car crashes every year.
3. Cars helps us to get to places more quickly.
4. Cars can make us lazy. We stop walking and cycling and become unfit and unhealthy.
5. Cars help us travel long distances.
Lots of New Zealanders own a car. Many people rely on their cars, especially if they have to travel long distances. Cars are useful, but they have their down side too.
1. Some cars are expensive to run and maintain.
2. Cars give us shelter from the weather while we travel.
3. Exhaust fumes from some cars can pollute the air.
4. Electric cars are cleaner to run than petrol cars.
5. If there are more cars, we have to build more roads.
Cars are important in our daily life's, but there are other options for getting around. Maybe we don't need to use cars as much as we do.

Part 5 of How Cars Changed Our World.
Exploring The Country By Car.
Cars made it easier to move around and keep in contact, but they were very expensive. Only wealthy people could afford one. The first motoring club began in 1903. Club members would go for drives together. To make driving safer and easier, they made direction signs and warning notices and put them along the roads. They also drew road maps to help motorists explore more of the country. The clubs encouraged local councils to improve roads and to build more.
Building roads was hard work.

Life Before Cars.
Before William Mclean brought his two cars into the country, life was very different for New Zealanders. In early times, Maori got around by waka or on foot. Most people lived close to lakes, rivers or the sea. It was usually faster and easier to travel across water than to struggle through the thick bushes and over the steep hills. When Pakeha arrived in New Zealand, they brought animals to carry thing. Bullocks could haul heavy loads on sleds, and wheeled wagons and horses could carry people. This allowed people to travel further and faster. They could now keep in touch and find out what was happening around the country more easily. In the 1850s, horse-drawn coach services began. They carried people, parcels, newspapers, and letters. Most people worked closer to home in the days before the motor car. Local communities usually had their own shops, doctor, police, post office, and school. There were no buses or cars to carry children between home and school - children walked, cycled, or rode the family horse. In the early 1900s, there was about one horse fore every three people in New Zealand. Square Palmerston N.425.

Part 3 of How Cars Changed Our World.
Cecil Woods was one of the people who built their own car. He was very proud of his invention, but one day, a butcher chased him and threatened to chop the car to pieces with his meat axe. The noise of the car has startled the butcher and his horse. Cecil had to turn off the engine and push his car home so it wouldn't frighten anyone.
Fred Dennison was a bicycle mechanic and engineer working in Christchurch in the late 1890s, he decided to make his own motor car, too. In June 1900, he drove his 'Dennison car' from Christchurch to Oamaru. In a modern car, the 250-kilometre trip might take about three hours. In 1900, it took Fred five days, and the journey wasn't easy. The roads were rough and dusty. At one point, the car got stuck in a riverbed and Fred had to take it to pieces to get it out again. Then, on his way back to Christchurch, the car caught fire. Fred wasn't hurt, but he lost all his luggage in the blaze.

Look Out - It's A Car!
Soon more people began importing*cars. Others built their own. a lot of people weren't sure about these strange, new machines. Motor cars were fast and smelly and loud. They scared horses - and their owners!
The first traffic ticket.
In 1901, Nicholas Oates was caught driving his car over
the speed limit of 6 kilometres an hour along Lincoln
Road in Christchurch. His car scared some horses.

How Cars Changed Our World
The first motor cars arrived in New Zealand more then 120 years ago. There were just two of them, and they came from France on the steamship Rotomahana. The cars reached Wellington on 19 February 1898. Their new owner was a man named William Mclean. It must have felt like Christmas to William when he saw his two shiny, new machines!
A car similar to one of the cars that William Mclean brought to New Zealand
One of the cars was small, with a top speed of 16 kilometres an hour. the other was larger and could go almost 50 kilometres an hour! That was faster than any horse and cart could travel. William decided to call the big car Lightning. William wanted to show everyone how good a motor car could be, so he took the mayor of Wellington for a drive. Things were going well until William lost control and ran into a fence. The mayor hurt his nose, and onlookers were shocked. They had just seen New Zealand's first car accident!
