THE THIRD FLOOR BEDROOM It all began when someone left the window open because Nora was reading her book and someone was throwing rocks at her. As she looked out the window, she saw her friend Sarah who she wanted to play with ,so Nora went out to play with her and when she was gone the painted birds on the wall were about to fly when one of the bird’s wings came out and then the whole body went out of the wall. The bird flew out the window. Sarah saw the bird fly away and she asked Nora why she had a bird flying out her window and Nora said ‘’Most of the birds go in my window, I don’t know why’’. Nora then said “We should ask my dad why.’’ So they went and asked Nora’s dad why birds keep coming in her window and her dad didn’t know why and he said’’ I should ask the company.’’ Nora asked her dad what company did he buy the paint from and he said he brought the paint from the magic paint shop .Nora thought for a moment and she thought the wallpaper was magical!!!! Then Nora’s dad called the company and they said they would tell the manager about it. They told Nora’s dad that they would call back. Later that day the manager called and said ‘’The birds are not going in your child’s window, the birds of your child’s wallpaper are actually magical. You see, I am a wizard that’s why I named my shop Magic Paint I thought no one would know’’. Then Nora’s dad said ‘’How did you make the paint?’’ The wizard said “It’s real birds that I found.’’ Then Nora said ‘’ I like birds. I think I will keep the wallpaper.’’ So she kept it. She kept one of the birds that had a pink feather on it. //****// Later that day, Nora got another one and it had a blue feather on it. She kept it in the same cage as the pink feather one. //****// One year passed and the two birds had babies. Year after year the birds had more and more babies. Then Nora said ‘’I think I would let them go’’ and she did. They lived happily ever after. //** = __HINEMOA AND TUTANEKAI__

Hinemoa was a pretty young woman who lived in Owhata, on the shores of lake Rotorua. A young man named Tutanekei lived with his people on Mokoia Island. Sometimes the people who lived on Mokoia Island came and visited Owhata.

When Tutanekei saw Hinemoa, he fell in love with her. They agreed that every night Tutanekai would play the flute and Hinemoa would go to see Tutanekai. Every night Hinemoa did not go because the people of Owhata pulled the canoes up to the far side so Hinemoa could not see Tutanekai.Then Hinemoa took her clothes off and tied 6 calabashes to her body to keep her afloat on the water. She swam far and she got very tired and she swam to a tree named Hinewhata and when she was feeling strong again, she swam and swam until she reached Mokoia Island.

When she arrived there, she was cold. She saw a hot pool and went in and stayed.

Tutanekei was thirsty so he told his slave to get some water from the hot pool. Hinemoa saw Tutanekais slave and she hid herself by a small tree. When the slave was there, Hinemoa deepened her voice like a man and said "whos the water for?"and the slave said "For Tutanekái." When Hinemoa heard, she squashed the bowl on the hard rocks.The slave ran back to Tutanekai and said "The bowls are broken!!"Then Tutanekei went mad and went to the hot pools and said "Who broke my bowls?" So Hinemoa went out of her hiding place and said "Its me, Hinemoa" and they took Hinemoa back and they lived happily ever after.

 ** MAGIC HAND FUDGE ( WRITING AN EXPLANATION) ** **// This is how you make Magic Hand-fudge so that when you hold it in your hand you taste it in your mouth. //** **// Firstly you put the ingredients in place and put a cup by the tap mixer, and then you put chocolate, vanilla and magic hand-fudge into the squeezer and turn it on to 280oc. It will take 1 minute for 100 flavoured chocolate, vanilla and magic hand-fudge sweets to be made. Then the sugar and milk goes in the tap mixer and it mixes for 5 seconds and the cup will take it to the masher. The masher mashes the cup and puts the sugar and milk out and it is mashed into a rectangle shape and the cup turns into rubbish and it disappears in the masher. After that the masher takes the cup into the wrapper machine. Next it moves to the robot hands and makes some little square boxes and then it moves to the squeezer. After that you can choose the flavour that you want. The flavours are chocolate, vanilla, magic-hand fudge. Then it moves to the wrapper and you can choose if you want it the wrapper or without the wrapper. Finally, it moves toward the basket and the basket fills the chocolate and it can transport it to a factory. It has a big secret but I’m not going to tell you. //**
