LAST WEEK’S Wow WINNER
Someone once dropped a slice of cheese from their sandwich on the
pavement outside and no one dared to pick it up. It just sat there and
it got mouldy and grimy. To this day it is still one the pavement.

Every class should have pet.
I believe the class shouldn’t have a class pet.
My first reason is if someone is allergic to the pet it will be bad. They will have to go to the
hospital and maybe even die!
Next is at recess or lunch, the pet will run out of the classroom. The kids will follow it onto
the road and the will get run over by the cars!
On the other hand who is going to feed the pet on the holidays? There will be no teachers
at school!
As you can tell this is my opinion why we shouldn’t have a class pet!

Would you want your toy to talk?
I strongly believe that a talking toy would be a great idea.
Firstly, if your brother or sister are in high school and they don’t want to play with you, you
can just play with your amazing talking toy. This is an amazing idea because at least you are
doing something useful.
Another reason is if you don’t have a brother or sister you can draw with your talking toy or
it can help your mum clean the house and do the dishes. This is a marvellous idea because
you are helping your mum and not asking her “What shall I do?”
Finally, if your mum and dad are always busy and they go to work your talking toy can take
care of you. This is a great idea because if no one takes care of you someone can knock on
your door and kidnap you.
These are the reasons why having a talking toy is a fabulous idea!
