Speech Tyga
For my speech I did Tyga the singer. (not the animal!) My speech was 3 minutes and 18 seconds long. When we finished learning our speeches we had to say it in front of the class and we had to do it without reading what we wrote. My teacher and all us other students had to say to the person who was speaking what we thought they can improve on. It was fun telling others how they could improve their speeches.

When went on a trip to the vector Arena. 29 students got to go.We went in another room and it was the basketball court on the main floor The court was big. After our tour around Vector Arena we went back in the basketball room and we got a free morning tea.

When we were eating our breakfast all of us were thinking it was lunch because there was heaps of food.After our feed, three ladies gave prizes to the people who won the quiz and the prizes were three dinosaurs, a one direction poster and a wrestle mania book with the wrestlers in it.It was great at Vector Arena.

Sugar -The Additive Murderer
Image Link
The sugar we eat is a murderer. There is sugar everywhere but some are hiding in our food and drinks. You might think that you know if a product has sugar, but some of them will have much, much, more that you think there is. Did you know that ⅔ of supermarket products have sugar. If you eat too much sugar you can get overweight. Most of the time you might not know how much sugar your'e eating but actually you are eating lots. And that's why you shouldn't eat sugar all the time.
