Speech 2017


 


1.Hi my name is Phoenix I am going to be talking to you about drifting.  Drifting is a driving style.  This is where  the driver uses the gas, brake and clutch to lock the wheel at the back end of the car, it is not that easy to drift.
2.You just need an open space  to  practice or a drifting  track. When you are near a corner you just pull the handbrake and steer, if the car is drifting on the right you want to steer to the right a little bit then just flick it to the left and just  slide it out.
3.But you don't want to put the gas to the metal because then you are going to crash because your car can't handle the power and  it is  too much for the right side of your car, you want to alternate the gas and brake just slow down for the other corner and do the same.
4.Who Drifts  in New Zealand?   Put your hands up if you know who drifts,  now  put your hands down. Well I Am going to tell you, he is a World Champion and his name is  Mad Mike  and also his friend CANTERBURY.  



5.They have heaps of trophies and medals for  drift events and Mad Mike has  four drifting cars.    He 6.owns an Rx7 that has 1200hp,  an RX8 with 800hp and RX7 with a rocket bunny kit and a MX5 with 1200hp.
7.Canterbury has a Holden Commodore, it has v8 and Mad Mike has quad rotary Twin Turbo rx7 and rx8 twin 8.turbo.   What car would you  practice with drifting normally.  A  manual is better to drift because you can go down a gear up a gear and clutch kick.  
9.In an auto you can't go down a gear up a gear and you can't clutch kick because you have no clutch.  It is not that easy to drift because you need heaps of money for wheels, tyres and cars because if one car breaks down you need to be prepared.
10.Lastly if you're not good at drifting it’s okay because not everyone is good at drifting because it is a really really hard.  Thanks for listening to my speech I really appreciate you listening to my speech and don't forget to keep drifting.


WALT: deliberately choose words to create an effect on the audience.  
In my speech I was able to talk about drifting  and using persuasive words

Next time i will do more movement and more persuasive words and more year 6 words e.g confused.

Ghost Prediction


WALT: To make a prediction based on the cover and blurb of ghost by Jason Reynolds

I was able to look at the front of the cover and it looked like the boy was running and I read the title.

Next time I will have more interesting prediction because going to find a good book with a good blurb with interesting words and I will look and at the front cover and look at the name of the book.  I will use the words on the blurb to help me better with the predictions.
