My Most Favourite Invention SECOND PLACE
Alex Ren 4C
Invented by Thomas Edison, the lightbulb is one of the most widely used inventions, also my personal favorite.
Lightbulbs provide quick and easy access to electricity. one click of a switch and the light is on. Before, people had to use candles. Candles aren’t nearly as bright as lightbulbs.
Also, candles can be quite costly to afford. Lightbulbs are much more affordable. That is why it’s widely favored by many.
It’s because of the disadvantages of candles that the inventor of lightbulbs, Thomas Edison decided that he wanted to make another way for humans to illuminate their homes.
He spent months in his laboratory, trying to find a new way to improve the candle. He failed a few thousand times, but after his hard work, he landed on a glass ball that had a metallic core that conducts electricity. He had succeeded! Later, he famously said, “The main reason that people give up is because they don’t know how close they are to succeeding.”
The lightbulb not only is a marvelous invention, it is also carrying the spirit of not giving up, aspiring us to face any problems we face.
The Day I Transformed into a Bee! THIRD PLACE
Lucas Wong 4D
One day, I was drawing my favorite animal - a bee. As I was drawing, I thought: wouldn’t it be nice to be a bee? I could make some honey, collect nect - Then suddenly, I felt myself shaking. I started shaking. I started to shrink. A pair of legs appeared on my chest! Wings were growing on my back. I became a bee!
“Oh no! Oh no! I want to change back into a human!” I said regretfully. However, nothing happened. I started to think: hmm… I drew a bee and became a bee, what if I draw a human? Will I become a human? That’s exactly what I did next. I tried to pick up my pen, but it was too heavy. Therefore, I tried to take the ink inside and draw with my tiny legs. It worked! I started drawing out the shape of a human. I then wished to become a human. I changed back, but there was ink all over my shoes and the floor.
That was an exciting experience! If there’s anything that I learned, it is be careful what you wish for!
The Day I Turned into a Bee! MERIT
Cyrus Lee 4A
Last week, I turned into a bee. It was a disaster!
On that day, before I turned into a bee, I was walking in the park peacefully. Suddenly, I heard sounds of bees buzzing around. I thought the sounds were not from the bees, but I was wrong. I turned around and I saw a bee. I wanted to make the bee dead but I failed. Instead, it stung me. The place where the bee stung was turning bigger and bigger! It was so painful that I closed my eyes and started focusing on my breathing.
When I opened my eyes, I saw myself in a bush! I wanted to get out of the bush but I couldn’t. Even worse, I found out that I was turned into a bee. All I could do was just buzzing around.
A while later, a gardener was cutting the bush so I made my way out. After I escaped, the gardener found me. He quickly took out his fly catcher and slapped on me. I quickly flew away. It was a narrow escape!
Even I escaped, I was still angry with the gardener. I quickly flew towards him and stung his elbow. Suddenly, it went dark.
After a minute, the lights came back. I turned back into a human. What a wonderful adventure!

“It’s back! The bee is back! The bee that stung me while I was bathing in the morning is back!” Ally, my sister. Her face turned red and smoke started to come out of her ears. She stomped her feet angrily, which made the house started to shake.
I got up, trying to kill the bee with my bare hands, but it flew away quickly. Even worse, I slipped and I hit my head hard on the floor. After that, I blacked out.
When I woke up, I found myself as a big bee. I was the bee that stung my sister in the morning! After I saw my sister’s eyes gleamed with flames, I flew away from my house as far as I could.
After a few days, I was thirsty and hungry. Then, I saw my last hope, a group of bees. I joined the group of bees and lived happily for a few years.
Four years passes, and one day, I was eating in the flower, a huge shadow covered me. It was a bird! It opened its mouth and swallowed me in a gulp. I fainted again.
After I woke up, I found myself in the hospital! I was covered in white clothes. I was in the hospital! I was human again. “Alls well that ends well. At least I am a human.” I murmured. Luckily, that was just a dream.
My Most Favourite Invention MERIT

I invented a few things, but the invention I like the most is the time reminder watch!
This is how it works:
- First, plan your schedule with a paper. You must draw very clear. Also, write the time next to every planned things.
- Next, use the watch’s scanner (the camera on the top of the watch). It will record it and save in the mini recording card.
- Then, there is a green button on the side of the watch. Press it and the watch will change to “reminding mode”. When it arrived the time that the planned thing starts, it will play the alarm music (you can set it in the settings when you buy). Therefore, you will know what you should do.
- Finally, if you want to change the schedule, you can change the old one or draw a new one. After drawing, you need to press the green button twice. You must scan it again.
User tips: Although the battery have many power, you must charge it once a week. It just need to charge for half an hour.
I hope you will like my invention. You can buy it in the website: yajelectricalappliances.com.hk or dial 97248648.
Customer’s words:
Mr. Smith: It helps me manage time! I was not good at it, but I am good at it now!
The Day I Turned into a Bee! MERIT
Ocean Leung 4C
One day in the morning, I reluctantly woke up. I sprinted to the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth. When I looked into the mirror, I quickly rubbed my eyes and my knees were wobbly like jelly, because I completely turned into a human-sized bee! I dashed into the living room and my Mom and Dad saw my body and face. They immediately screamed, “Help! There’s an enormous bee in my house!” I calmly replied, “It is me, Mom.” Mom said, “You are going to be adopted!”
Ten seconds later, my parents kicked me out of the house. My tears in my eyes were merging some big tears, forming a puddle on the floor. I thought, “On the other hand, I can go to adventure in the park!” Suddenly, a bee glided towards me. It said with a wicked smile, “Follow me to a planet! There are many ambrosial food on there!” I decided to trust him because my tummy was already growling out of control.
Two hours later, we arrived onto the planet. The alien said, “I am going to kill you because I need a slave.”
All of a sudden, I heard a familiar voice, “Wake up! Wake up!” I thought, “Oh, it is my Mom! Phew! It is a dream.”

I found myself starting to shrink. I shrunk and shrunk, and suddenly I became a bee!
I was standing on a flower. While I saw other kids playing in the playground. I started to feel bored, so I flew around the park. They didn’t seem to notice me. While I was flying, I saw something on the floor. They were breadcrumbs! As I was famished, I immediately ate them all in a blink of an eye.
As I continued to fly, a kid started to chase me. I was terrified and petrified and was afraid that I would die. He turned to use his hands to kill me! I flew as fast as possible, and I tried to avoid getting hit and I hid behind the flowers. Suddenly, he crept behind me and slapped me! I did not have enough time to react as it was so sudden.
I screamed at the top of my lungs, “Ahhh!” Mom rushed into my bedroom. She was worried, “Are you okay, Kayden?” “Yes, I’m fine,” I said. Turns out it was just a nightmare! Phew! My hands were still shaking.
What a terrifying nightmare!
