Speech paragraph
I have wrote my own speech about Why racism is bad. It was a topic that I have been through in my life. I have heard people talking about other people's skin color. This topic was to tell people it is bad and it has been gone out of control. I am going to be confident enough to share my speech in front of the classroom.

Current Event - Park up for Homes: Hundreds spend night in cars in support of homeless families.
For reading I have finished my current event DLO. My current event DLO is on about the Hundreds spend night in cars in suport of homeless families. I have learned a lot from this article about what has been happening. I think the author wanted me to learn is that many people don't have what we have right now like, houses, food and nice clothes. I feel really sad because there are families out there who has nowhere to live.

Pollution - Synthesizing
I have played a game about my prior knowledge. We have to write a strong connection on why does it connect to the subject it tells you. If we have a strong connection then we jump to a tall building you get 40 points. If we get a weak connection we jump to a small building which only gives you 10 points.
