Machine gunners

1, He split the ink on his friend so it would detracted the class.

3, There concerned about the gun because of the weapon and it could injure someone else and its a knew type of machine gun that can go through walls and its got 2000 worth of ammo .
4, They think the child stole the gun because when it was stolen it look liked it had been hacked at.
5, They didn't look in the rabbit hutch because the gun couldn't fit in there but if they had looked in there they would have found the ammo

Chas likes to do his own thing whenever he fells like it.
Boddser was easy to take the Micky out of and know one really liked him.
I don't know i just think something interesting is going to happen.
I think story is written about someone steeling the machine gun and the police is trying to figure out what happened.

Earthquake notes


I learnt that Tornadoes can get up to 170 mph and that if tornadoes occur you should go under low ground.
One thing that I learnt off my PowerPoint was that the Japan earthquake got up to about 8.9. I always thought you could fell any type of earthquakes but soon learnt you can’t.
Tsunamis can wipe out a whole city just like the Japan one did.
Did you know that an avalanche can reach up to a speed of 30-70 miles per hour and was also used as a weapon in World War 1?
 When tectonic plates need to move they cause an earthquake like Christchurch has had in recent years.
Most Tsunamis kill 300 plus people as the one did over in Japan.
First off I never knew what a typhoon was but now know it’s a huge storm that can wipe put a whole city.  
 I also learnt that a hurricane is made out of water and wind
