Why books are disappearing

Before researching:
I though that books where disappearing and that people were buying more technology, and that kids were getting a bit stupider more and more (as in not academically I mean perceptionaly and their knowledge about things) and I thought that technology is good and bad on the society 

After researching: 
I found out what books are a bit worse than technology because to make paper you need to chop down trees and that ruins the environment, even though technology has a bit of a bad impact on society, it also has a good impact, for example charities online, and orgonisations to stop making fun of gay people

correcting

"MUM, where are my favourite socks," I asked yelling for help, 
"and where are my tuesday undies" asked dad searching through his draws 
"you know I have to wear them today," 
"just wear mondays undies no one is going to know," replied mum 
"no ones going to know you say I'm going to know and to wear mondays undies" I say, 
"pfft that would be idiotic" dad answered back with a streak in his voice, 
this was only the beginning of our family disaster.

For the next few weeks things were starting to disappear and fast with dad losing his tuesday undies and me losing my favourite socks Isaac then lost his favourite bow tie while mum then lost her favourite dress we thought we were going mental its not like they could just hop up and run away said 
Isaac mum suggested that we recap our steps when was the last time you had you items she said we all replied before washing day was the last time we had them so maybe its the washing machine thats caused all this drama mum said with a glimpse a hope in her eye ss we checked the washing machine there was… nothing with nothing to prove i decided to put a gopro in the machine to watch it in action to see if there was something suspicious really happening inside what I didn’t realize was that the washing machine would take my gopro too AHHH ITS GONE I yelled at the top of my voice what are we going to do lets just give up mum said to me fine if that’s the best idea i moaned a few weeks later isaac had dropped his toy car behind the washing machine and as we were looking for it a pair of undies popped up out of the blue just sitting there mum look i said with a big grin on my face who would have guessed we both stood there smiling

Why Rimu is the best house in TIS


Write a PEEL paragraph responding to this statement

Rimu is the best syndicate at TIS.

You must:

Decide on your umbrella Point
Give at least 3 Explain reasons, each with an specific Example
Finish with a Linking sentence back to your P statement.
Use sequencing words for your reasons


Rimu is the best house in the school because we get to use our own computers for learning and we are one of the best at sport.

In the past Rimu has come first with a lot of stuff even out of sporting, I don't really know what they did come first in because I don't pay any attention to sport, but I do know that they came first or second or third in a lot of things.

We use computers for work because a lot of us aren't very good at working on paper and pencil.

Why Mr. Diver is a good principal

Mr. Diver is a successful principal because how to control the school with having the fair share of order and freedom, and he also knows how to have fun with the students adults and classes. He is fair because he sets up a set of rules that doesn't violate students freedom, and when he bans something for example a type of food from the cantieen, he will let the students decide what food could replace it. He can have fun with the children of the school by joining their games for a small portion of the time, and can have fun with the adults the same way but chatting with them, he can also have fun with classes by teaching interesting stuff such as history. Mr. Diver is a good principal because of his co-operation with his school and his students.
