production reflection
Production reflection
My goal for the beginning was to stand tall and be brave and I think I did that well. I think the production went really well and remembering the song and when to start doing the cups. i found it difflcult to look out the front when doing the cups. My favorite part was definitely when the school did their dance. I think it was pretty cool that we got our own person to do the lights and music. I was a green, yellow and black fish and next time I might be a main part.

why our oceans are in bad health
Why our oceans are in bad health.
What health is our ocean in? Hi my name is Jazzlyn and i'm going to be talking about why our oceans are in bad health. These are the 3 reasons our oceans are in bad health, these less fish in our sea due to overfishing, the ocean is getting higher temp and there's more pollution in our sea.
Firstly, pollution is a huge problem. Did you know 100,000 marine mammals die every year from plastic pollution, this includes whales, dolphins, seals and sea lion’s. All of these mammals have eaten plastic fibers or micro fibers. 8 million tons of plastic enters the sea a year. That's 1 garbage truck of plastic in our oceans that is a big problem. Think about it. Would you like to swim in water with plastic in it?
Is it getting harder to get a fish to get fish on your line? Well there were more than 3,500,000,000,000 fish in the sea but that's lowering Overfishing is the removal of a species of fish from a body of water at a rate that the species cannot replenish, resulting in those species becoming underpopulated in that area. Did you know Almost 30% of fish stocks commercially fished are overfished, Over 60% of fish stocks are fully fished.
Lastly, increase heat. Did you find the water getting hotter every year? The temperature can increase at an average rate of 0.08°C per decade since 1880 and over twice that rate since 1981.
In conclusion, I talked about how pollution is getting worse and worse, why it's getting harder to catch fish faster and how climate change is getting worse and hopefully you will listen to this.

Speech reflection
How did it go: My speech was about I am the earth and the earth is me . I think I
did good, but I didn't get through. My speech was 4mins and 14secs.
How i felt: i was shaking at first but then at the end i was glad i was finished, i felt like they were cornering me when they sat around you. I think i would have been worse if i went up in front of the whole school
Who got through: in our class hayley and year 7 and georgie a year 6
Overall: I think I did good even though I didn't get through. I think I did good and I would love to do another next year.
