ParticipantI strongly believe that technology is destroying students’ childhoods. Of course, technology makes students to have more time used in social media and not for learning, which strongly effects students’ eyesight. It can also make students lazy because of the convenient of doing everything, and make them not independent, which is relying on the technology.
Firstly, technology developing causes students to spend more time on social media, hurting their eyesight. Nowadays, kids spend so much time on social media chatting with friends, watching shorts and more and more unsuitable things for small-age child. It may create bad eyesight for the children, and they can’t fix it anymore.
Secondly, technology can make students lazy. After the technology improved, we did not need to go grow plants and weeds to feed ourselves, we can just simply click on our phone and food will arrive. All the students do now is to curl in their couch and get whatever they want.
Thirdly, technology will make students not independent, which will affect their future. They may rely on. the technology so much that if they lose their devices, they cannot even live! That will impact their future growing and their power to live alone.
In conclusion, it’s undoubtedly that technology is destroying our childhood. In which students spend more time on their devices than in the nature or outside playing is a terrible memory of their childhood and is unbeneficial for their learning path.

ParticipantPart 1, from the perspective of the shop
“Beep, beep.” the cars on the street shouted to each other. A yellow mini car parked by and there came a short person with thick glasses. He looks like a detective.
“Come on!” shouted the detective-like person to the mini car. Another tall skinny person stepped out of the car door.
They walked straight toward me and walked in. The short man must want to just buy something but maybe there will be something happening in here. He peeked at all the people inside me and chose a small toy which have a small card laying beside him saying “Detective Rob New Released Toy!”
The short man smiled.
“Oh, that short is the Detective Rob, and the tall man must be Docter Ian!” I thought.
At this most busy time in a day, I can lower my weight very fast because everyone in town buys things from me at this time.
“Thief!” Detective Rob shouted, “There, running on the street!
“Catch him!” Docter Ian screamed.
There, running on the street, was a small boy seizing a small Detective Rob toy.
Part 2, from the perspective of home
“Slap, slap.” The sound of people running on the road become stronger and stronger. Speeding on the road, Bob took a small toy. After him, there are a whole group of people, leaded by Detective Rob.
Bob rushed straight into me and slammed the door. Inside my body, he gave his Detective Rob toy to his little brother, Ethan. Ethan smiled widely and hugged Bob.
Outside, Detective Rob shouted through the door and banged on the door. “Come out of here, you thief.” He screamed.
Bob stood up and after he took a deep breath, he opened the door.
Docter Ian walked forward and leaned down: “Why are you stealing a toy, cute child?”
“My parents died years ago, and we don’t have any money, so I can just steal to live. Ethan wanted a small detective toy, so I went and stole it. I’m very sorry!” Bob sobbed.
“Oh, we can find you a foster home to live, and promise me that you will never steal again, is that all right?” Rob asked.
“Yeah, I promise!” Bob replied, still crying.
“Okay then, it’s decided!” Rob exclaimed.
“Hooray!” Bob and Ethan shouted together.

ParticipantThis is my upgraded version:
1
The ocean is blue
Where I explore the new
Enamored of the freedom
Missing our mom
2
A sea gull explores its new world——the blue ocean. Under the bright sun, it flies lightly and quick, happy and excited. It loved the freedom but still missed it’s mom.

ParticipantNowadays, people do not need to work, all the robots were doing all the chores. They just need to fix some of the robots which is broken and can’t be used. But that will change…
I’m Andy, a modern-day engineer. I do not have to worry about anything except my engineering work. There will be very delicious food ready on the for me, and my bed will be cleaned automatically every morning. Today is my big day. I’m going to invent and test a new artificial intelligence robot, ROBx14.
After I went into the automatically opened door, I met my boss. We talked for a bit about how we can test the ROBx14 by using some weapons to see if they can defeat it. ROBx14 is a robot designed for wars not on earth, which is space wars.
After a few minutes, I entered the Space Defeat Lab, where we test the robots. I told my partner to stay away and pressed the ON button. Suddenly, the robot’s eyes light up with red lights. It jumped straight toward us without any pause. I don’t know what to do because I’d never met anything like this. The robot jumped straight by us, heading to somewhere maybe more important…

ParticipantWhen I got home, I went right up the stairs and opened my personal computer to play the best game ever made, Minecraft. I phoned my best friends, Ruby and Henry, to play because we’ve decided to play together this night on the web to compete. We’ve met just yesterday and became friends right away; we were all loving to play cool video games.
I’m new to the school, and everyone all seems weird to me, but Ruby and Henry introduced me to the rest of the class and so, we became friends. I’m very a Friend Expert.
“Hey, Ruby. Wanna play?” I shouted through my phone. I heard Ruby laughing and shouting some nonsense in his room. I knew that because he always listens to pop music when he is alone in his room. I called Henry too in the phone the same way.
About two minutes later, we are all in the room I created and started to place blocks to star to our online battle. We’d planned to build first for about twenty minutes and start our 1v1v1 game right away. Everyone needs to get foods to prevent us from dying from huger and trying to kill others at the same time.
I remembered for once, I played Minecraft on Saturday, and I’m stunned. A player that I don’t know is keep winning as if he is the king and experts of this game. After I told them, they can’t even believe it.
We started right away quickly and started playing. I’m always winnnning so I believe that my luck today is also very good.
I crouch in my blue lazy sofa and opened my laptop. My room is very blueish because I like blue, so almost everything is blue in my room. My sofa, bed, pillow is all blue. the thing I loved most about my room is how I’ve cleaned it so hard that I even believe it is better than everyone’s in school, including the girls.
…
“BOB!” gosh. My mom is calling me for dinner, and we’ve just played for 6 rounds. I shut my laptop right away and stomped downstairs.
“Darling, I strongly believe that you need to read more.” My mom sighed, “Mia’s vocabulary is better than you are now.”
“Okaaaaay” I sighed back, swallowing my plate of spaghetti, “I’ll go read and then sleep”
…
After reading, I lied down in my bed and curled like a ball. I set the alarm clock to 07:07 because 7 is my favorite number.
I sank into my own world and think and understand the world more.
I thought about all the girls in my class. Ruby and Henry told to me that girls in our class were not as annoying as the others in the other classes and, I know that in fifth grade, you need to be very carefully when contacting with the girls. If you don’t, everyone will say loudly about things like “Ooh! Bob like the girl!”
But that’s true. And I do not like it.

ParticipantLittle test in class:
Is science or art more essential to humanity? This question requires deep thinking. Science can practice humans’ skills of understanding and solving problems, it can make all the things in humans’ lives clear, solved and organized. Art can practice humans’ skills of creativity and designing structures, it can make humans’ lives more interesting and full of fun.
Science is what the left brain do. Science can keep you to think and be active and let you learn to organize things. For example, a good company or person that owns a good company uses the thought of “I need to control it” to make it a huge company.
On the other hand, art is what right brain do. Art can let you to create whatever things you want and try/experience things out. For example, those famous people that creates a new company and provides others a convenient life like Apple uses the thought of creative and the thought of “I want to try it out” to get to the end.
At last, I want to state that I think art is more important in our lives than science because it can leads us to explore the world and things that we don’t know. Which one do you think is more important?

ParticipantI believe that learning from experiences is better than learning from books. Learning in that scene will be more efficient than learning from a fake scene. When you figure a question out on your own, you will know better when you met it next time. If I let to choose the two ways to learn, you must like to try it yourself than hearing me telling you about what it feels like, smells like, looks like…
Also, books or other information written on paper, sometimes, will be wrong. Books are written by people that tried that thing out, it’s their thoughts about it. It may not be what you think, so don’t believe in others, believe yourself. Will you want to see your friend spending five days to finish reading a long information book, but found out that all the information is wrong? That’s a waste of time.
So, please learn from your experiences than from the books, it’s a better way to learn and will help you improve.

ParticipantPlay, play, play! Kids just want to play. I believe that our school must build a huge playground for kids to play. It’s not only for the kids, but also for the school! Schools with a huge playground, or playing area, will attract so many children to come. A huge playground can also change others’ thinking about our school: Wow! A huge playground! My kids will be very happy to be there.
If you build this playground, kids or even parents will love you. Children can play happily, move happily, and learn happily. Children moving around more will make their happiness increase, causing them to learn focused and behave better in school time.
You want to play or learn? Of course, children will LOVE to play. Please build me, build us, build the whole school a happy playground.

ParticipantAll the things in the city were normal, very normal. The planes soaring in the air, people hanging in the street, traders shouting over each other, competing about who sells the most goods. But then, the air started changing. The cloud covered the sun. The wind started blowing.
I woke up and peeked out through the curtain. The sun shined brightly in the sky, smiling at the people going to work. Maybe dad was in there too, I thought. I’m only six, so Mom needs to stay with me during the day. Mom said that we can go to the toy shop and buy whatever toy I want, since it was my birthday. Thinking is not how you do things, Mom always said. So, I jumped onto my cute little pony mat, changed my clothes, and started the day.
A few minutes later, I was at the front door, waiting for Mom impatiently. I wanted to keep calm, so Mom will say that I’m a good patient kid, but I’m so excited to buy my favorite toy! If I show Dad my little pony pencil case, Dad will say that It’s a good choice.
Finally, we walked through our beautiful garden, toward our car. On the way out, I felt that the flowers were laughing or smiling at me. It didn’t feel well, and I don’t know if it’s good or bad.
As I had expected, I got my perfect pony pencil case. I hid it in my little backpack, not letting anyone see, including me. When we got into our car, a loud bang spread over the city, followed by a second bang and a third bang. I am frightened and scared. I curled up un my seat, and Mom told me to be calm. The city broadcast then told us, residents, to go to the air defense center, and they will keep us safe.
On the way to the air defense center, I saw a huge traffic jam because everyone was heading toward one place. We fought our way to it and finally got safe from that disaster.

ParticipantEnglish writing class 3
March 13, 2135
Today, the U.S.A is throwing bombs to us. I just woke up, seeing everyone rushing around like mice meeting a cat. The U.S.A is the cat, and we are the mouse. I ran outside, not knowing what’s happening now. I saw crazy people carrying toys, foods and other thing to their cars, or even trucks, as if they are going to live on their “moving homes”. Adults shouting to kids, kids shouting to adults, the message passed on into my ears.Suddenly, I truly realized that we are dangerous here as I smelled the scent of fire. I raced back to my house, feeling a bit anxious, at a loss of what to do. I remembered that once a time, I dreamed about myself getting lost at a huge amusement park, couldn’t find my phone, running around. But now, it’s in real life, really happening, and I need to do something about it. I took some canned food, a sleeping bag, some communication equipment, and my favorite toy, my car model my best friend gave me.
The loud noise is closer and closer to us. I jumped on my little truck and raced toward the edge of the city. I needed to drive slowly on the crowdy, muddy dirt road because there were always people running around doing everything but nothing. I felt nervous about whether I can survive this disaster or not, unsure about what will happen next, and sad for those who already dead without knowing. If we can get out of here, we will be safe for now, but not forever.
Wish me good luck
Andy

Participant“It’s you? You killed her, accidentally?” I shouted, astonished. The man in hunting wear stands still, nodding slowly. Everyone was quiet, staring at each other. A woman burst into tears, her husband hugging her tightly. Who is the woman? What happened?
Three days ago, my family and my best friend, Emily’s family went to Rockwell Mountain to camp together. We’re going to stay for two weeks. It was a Sunday, the beautiful blue sky had no clouds at all. The adults planned to meet the famous hunter, Mr. Carter, so they could hunt together and taught us some tricks of hunting.
The second day, when the adults were hunting together in the woods with Mr. Carter, Emily and I decided to play hide and seek. She will be the hider, and I will be the seeker.
Emily was good at hiding. Usually, she stays low and moves slowly until she finds a good spot to hide herself from me. The Rockwell Mountain was so big, so I was a little bit worried about Emily getting lost in the woods. Just as I was about to step and find her, a loud bang of gunshot erupted from the forest, followed by a scream. I was frightened, is Emily hurt, or is it just the adults hunting animals? With my body trembling, I rushed back to the house, shut the door, closed the windows, and waited for my parents to get back.
“Ding!”the door rings. I was scared to answer the door. I peeked out of the curtain, seeing it was Mr. Carter. Relieved, I answered the door. Mr. Carter said straightly:“It’s me. I accidentally shot her, thinking she was a rabbit or some animal. I’m so sorry.”
That explains everything. Everything has been solved, and it’s time to go home.
