My speech was on the difference between the French and the English.
I think it was pretty good because I put lots of effort into it and lots of people liked it. Next time I would try to talk slower because my speech was way to far under the time limit and some people couldn't hear what I was saying. I think that it was okay but I also think that I should've practised more.

My Term 3 goals, family feedback
Guitar practise:
My mum doesn't think I have achieved this goal and that I should try harder.
Hockey practise:
My family think that I haven't achieved this goal but it is hard because my Dad is normally busy at work.
Organisation:
My family think I have achieved this goal because my room has been a lot tidier and I am not losing as many things as I used to.

Speech Feedback Term 3 - The difference between the French and English
2.25 Your introduction grabbed our attention with a rhetorical question. You spoke quite quickly, but it was clear and loud enough to hear. You gave a number of interesting examples, which were shared as stories. You showed you can use OPV by looking at more than one viewpoint when giving examples. You also used French words which made it more interesting.
Next Steps:
Practise the speech with a small group more so that you slow down a lot. Relax and enjoy yourself, you are a talented writer and speaker!

The Emperor is a Fake
I don’t know why you belive that silly emperors story, can’t you tell that he’s a fake, well you aren’t as smart as we are and it did take us a while to figurre it out.
Well this is the true story,
We were walking down the street, just wandering along when up came a man wearing rags, we felt so sorry for him so we said that we would do him a favour. So he asked us to go to the Emperor and make him some amazing clothes because the emperor wouldn’t let a poor ragged man into his amazingly beautiful castle. We agreed to make the emperor some clothes and bring back the money. The poor man gave us the bags of material (which were suprisingly light) and said “The material can only be seen by smart people.
Then off we went to the castle, we told the emperor exactly what the beggar had said, and he told everybody else that if they couldn’t see it they were stupid and would have to be locked up in the dungeon.
We worked and worked even though we couldn’t actually see the material we were working with, but we thought we would be able to see it once we had finished but when the day came we still couldn’t see it and that was very suspicious because we are the smartest people in town.
We gave the emperor some clothes and he said that he could see them and that they were beautiful. He put them on at once. It was a horrific sight we saw for it turned out the emperor didn’t wear underpants! He went out to show off his clothes and some how he already knew that no one could see them and that was our second clue.
Soon the whole town was in the dungeon except for us and the Emperor. We took a long hard look at him and we realised that we had seen him somewhere before, but where?
We lay on our beds thinking for about an hour, then suddenly we both jumped to our feet, that ragged man we had seen weeks before looked exactly like the emperor. We talked and talked all night long untill we finally figured out the whole thing.
The Emperor needed attention and that’s why he became obsessed with fashion, because it was somethig knew and interesting but after a few years it became old and boring so he needed a new plan, a plan that no one would forget, that every single country of the world.
He knew us infact he had been watching our every move and he knew that we would do anything for a poor old beggar. So he dressed up as one and asked us to do what what we did even though there was no material. He just wanted people to think that he was the smartest man in the world.
One day we went for a really long drive to find a police station that had police men that weren’t locked up in the dungeon and we told them the story but we were too late because the emperor wrote a book about it and that book is still around today.
But now hopefully you believe that the Emperor is truly A FAKE.

S.L.C feedback
I enjoyed listening to your stories and poems and seeing where you are at with your maths, we didn't quite have enough time but you can show me some things at home, you spoke very well and were very organised. But if we'd had more time maybe you could have slowed down your speech.
Thank you Ju.
Thank you Ju.
A letter to Gandalf

Dear Gandalf
My name is Juliette Phillipson, I go to Fendalton school in Christchurch and some of the people in my class are reading “The Hobbit” and we have decided to ask the characters some questions.
How did you become such a fantastic wizard? And if you really are as great as they say, why couldn’t you save Thorin or kill the dragon or just take the treasure with magic?
Now that I’ve finished the book I know why they call you such a great wizard but why didn’t you continue with them through the forest? What if something happened? You were my favourite character in the story although I did quite like the dwarves, which of them was your favourite? Mine was probably Balin because he was really nice to Bilbo. How did you know that Bilbo would be able to help? And why did you chose him out of all the wizards, dwarves, elves and hobbits in middle earth?
If you can, please write back and answer my questions.
Yours faithfully,
Juliette
