spunky speeches

This week I have been writing a speech about Flying Bananas.

The reason is that Room 1 are learning about speeches is so we can practice our oral language. I found it challenging to think of something in each  paragraph. I enjoyed making up the story and fitting in funny things. We are also doing a school speech competition and 2 year  7  and 8s will go to the West Coast competition. It was also hard to make it between 2 and 4 minutes. The sad thing was that we had to make it a bit longer in case we got nervous and sped up so it was not the full 2 minutes.

Have you ever written a speech?

Room 1 had to find places on my map here is my one.

First we gathered data to put in our graph. We had to find out the activities kids like and how many farm animals there were. Then we put this information on a spreadsheet and clicked the bar graph button to make our graphs. Have you ever used graphs on spreadsheets? Here are my graphs.

persuasive argument

Physical play shouldn't be banned because it is fun. The reason it is fun is because it is more of a challenge to dart around everyone. You don't just get touched. So it is more fun.




It is more like real League or Rugby. You get tougher and you know how to handle big hits. You can learn more from it. It is much more fun and everyone likes to play it more, but if there is little kids you can just play a game like touch or they just can not play. It is still boring.




Wrestling It is good because there is lots of kids the same age so it will be easier for us all to play and no one will be too rough. No one will get hurt that badly. Wrestling is fun because it is something to do when it is a sunny day. There is a really low chance of getting badly heart. So it will be OK!




Another reason is that we can not play proper soccer with slide tackles and pushing it will be way more fun. It will be boring without physical play. You can get stronger. You learn coordination and timing to get them at them right time.




I think that physical play should not be banned so school want be so miserable and you can play it at lunch. I hope you agree with me.

New Zealand was once said to be part of New South Wales and later was part of Australia.

After we sang we had lunch and John acker sang to us. We had chips and tomato sauce for lunch. It was delicious there were also some sandwiches. We ate up all the chips then we chatted for a bit and walk to school.

Camp

On Monday, we went to Westport for Camp. We did the Pancake Rocks walk in Punakaiki and we also did kayaking in Punakaiki. Everybody had a good time. Some people like activities better than other activities. My favourite activities were Kayaking and paddle boarding. I liked kayaking because I have done it before and I was confident. The best part was going fast and the kayaks. We crashed into each other that was fun too. I liked paddleboarding because it was like kayaking with but standing on a board I was at one of the first one's to stand up on the board. Grace Isaac and I were in the front.
