One fine morning in heaven Zeus was waking up next to his lovely wife Hera,but he was woken to the sound of war,that was raining down outside his door.So he got up and look through the blinds to see Ares (the god of war),the man he had banished to hell and lucifer the one who had let him out so that he could kill his dad but Ares had not do that he had killed

Hephaestus,Dionysus,Apollo,Aether,Hesperus,Aristaeus,Asclepius,Kratos,Zelus,Morpheus,Adonis,Chronos Castor and Pollux. As the war raged on with Priapus,Hermes,Eros,Cronus,Hypnos,Helios,Atlas,

Plutus,Priapus,Pluto,Momus And Anemoi still fight each other. zeus shouted “STOP!!”Then they all paused as

Zeus Asked “Why are you fighting?” but all of a sudden Ares slit pluto throat and

shouted “May wars rain on!” So they continued to fight under ares spell but there was nowhere to move,because of all the dead bodies so they all shot do to earth with Ares.

So zeus shot down there to find half of a village destroyed already.Lots more gods dead so he walked up to ares grab him by the neck and so Ares stabbed him with a pic of wood he had grabbed,then zeus ripped out of him and as the ichor(god blood)poured out he put it in Ares’s leg and more ichor started pouring out.Then he dropped ares and looked behind him to find his son Prometheus(half god,half man) there,So he walk up to him and asked Him “Where is your mother?”

Persuasive writing

Reasons why computers are necessary in school

I believe that computers are necessary in school.but why do you  believe computer are necessary in school ?Or don’t you think computers are necessary?

If computer were in school they would make way easier to write  a story and you don’t have to be good at spelling. A lot of people these day are not very good at handwriting so this would help write a story netley. I you spell something wrong it underline it with red. “Kristin Wong says” Plus, most of us are faster typers than writers, so journaling by hand might take a bit more time and effort.

You can use google to do research for anything like IES, a report .google has so many thing on it you could find any information you need.google is not the only search site so if you can't find what you need on google there other sites to research on. “Hugh Ashman says” The ease with which you can write and revise, having typing and spelling mistakes corrected as you go…”

I would help people  to read and write. People with disabilities can listen to the computer instead of the teacher read then the story or something. You can to write which is where you talk and the  computer writes it do for you.“Says richard wanderman,”I'm a successful adult with a learning disability (dyslexia); part of the reason for my success is that I use computers to organize and express my ideas.

In conclusion I believe this is why computers are necessary in school. And these are my reasons why because it makes it easier to write,you can research things and it helps people with a disabilities.

Have your say for highwayman

Have your say

The following questions are aimed to make you think...There are no right answers as long as you give reasons for what you have written…. Make a copy and go for it!

1. Do you think the choice Bess makes (to warn the Highwayman by taking her own life) Is stupid or inspiring? I think it is stupid because she knew him for like 3 minutes.
2. If you made a movie of this, who would you cast as the highwayman? How about Bess?  I would role Leonardo DiCaprio for highwayman and for Bess I would role Abby Sciuto.      
3. Have you ever admired a criminal? Do you think it's OK to make robbers into heroes?no because they have done bad already and should go to prison.
4. Why do you think people tell ghost stories? Is the ghost story in this poem meant to make us scared? Happy? Sad?sad because two people have died but i would not crying they both deserved it couse they.

How do you feel about tragic stories? Would you switch this ending for a happy one if you could?no because the would ruin the story.
