Change our school uniform flipgrid

          LI; To identify the main ideas in a text.

We are reading why we should change school uniform. I have read the article and it says that we should change our school uniforms. I think that we should have school uniform and if you want to know why watch the flipgrid. We had to say why we want this because we are learning about speeches and we have to write a speech for the flipgrid. 

Speech and poem competition

Speeches are what we have been learning about in class. We have just had the speech finals for our school. There were 10 people that were in the competition that were from different year level which were new entrance to year 8. The marking were scored by the English teacher from Tamiki collage. The markings were also based on the year level. For the younger kids they did poems and year 4 to 6 did speeches. My favorite speech was about the danger of technology which was by Sulia. I liked hers because it makes me think of the future. My favorite poem was about earth and what we can do to save it which was by Mercy. I liked it because it made me think about it.

Speech pickings

Speeches are what we are learning about and what we are trying to make for the speech competition. This something big that I really want to be in. We are doing percussive speech. We all picked a topic in week 2 and we have had to present it. There are only going to be two people that are going to the competition. We all had been marked from many categories. We have learnt that people are persuade when you speak serious.

Speech

L.I to make a persuasive speech.
For writing we are making persuasive speech. Persuasive is making someone or a group think the same way you do. We are creating persuasive speech for a competition. The two people that win will go to the competition and will go up against different schools. We are planning about what we are doing and what we are going to say in our speech. We have two weeks to remember them and present it to the class.
