Speech video- Save bees Save humanity

Save bees save humanity- speech topic

Introduction:
Bzzzzz, Ahh! Sorry, I thought I saw a bee. I must’ve been in a bit of a daydream!  “If bees disappeared off the face of the Earth, man would only have four years left to live.” This quote from Albert Einstein gets me thinking, do we need bees that badly? Many people think bees are just annoying flying insects that can sting you. Yet that is not what they are. I think that bees are the world's little helpers and they are imperative to all life on earth. 
Main point 1: 
Many people take bees for granted and kill them just because they fear getting stung. Do you ever wonder what would happen if bees disappeared entirely? With their extinction, we would suffer from loss of plants, crops and animals, famine & there would be widespread hardship for us humans. Research shows, about one out of every three bites of food in America is made possible by bees. Also, in the United States alone, Honeybees pollinate $15 billion worth of crops each year.  
Main point 2: 
You may wonder. What threatens bees? Well, parasites, pesticides, climate change and habitat loss are significant. But we, humans, are the main cause. We pollute the atmosphere, we take the habits of these innocent creatures, we place poison on their food. Us, humans, are like the witch from snow white, and the flowers we spray with chemicals are like the poisoned apple. By killing bees, we, in fact, threaten our future survival! We need to raise awareness of the abundance of help bees give us.  Imagine you are a bee flying around peacefully when suddenly you smell something delicious.  With a careful approach and a gentle sniff (ok so bees don’t sniff but you get the idea), you take a lick?  Next thing…well, there is no next thing because that is the end of you.  That is the reality our pesticides and poisons cause for our precious bees.
 Main point 3: 
YOU can help! Dandelions and clovers are good nutrition for bees so even though may look a bit scruffy, let some weeds grow! Consider placing flowering plants in your garden. Having a bit of free water in your backyard will help too because just like you and me, bees need water. Parents and guardians mmmm. You need to remind them “Mum, Dad please don’t hurt the bees, don’t put pesticides on our flowers!” 
Conclusion: 
Save bees Save humanity. Please don’t let anyone tell you that bees aren’t important! I hope I have convinced you that bees are not just annoying, that they are our special helpers and the main reason we are alive and enjoying abundant food! We should have care and respect for even the smallest of living things. They are here to help us not hurt us.
Turns out that even the smallest life really can change the world.
Thank you.

The day my dad swapped ME for the prime ministers job

W.A.L.T: Write an introduction that hooks your audience.
To Entertain


“Money, money, money, Must be funny in a rich man’s world!...”
Sang my Dad in his croaky llama voice, no he is not a llama but not going to lie, he really does sound
like one. When he sings his favourite song always brings me back to that dreaded day. Has your Dad
ever swapped you for something he desired with all his heart? Well, my name is Neta and my Dad has! 
This father of mine really wants to become the king one day
If you are wondering this odd man works as part of the government.
Now onto the story of how I got sold to the prime minister...

“Daaaadddd!” I exclaimed, “what is your idols name again?” 
“The king honeyyyy!” he yelled down the house.
“Oh yeah thanks”. I murmured in my usual ‘ I forgot he was such a weirdo’ Voice.
How can my dad be such a dreamer, I mean does he really think he can become The King of England
out of nowhere someday?
I was thinking about how weird my father was when suddenly, I had an idea. Why can he not aim for
something smaller something almost as good, someone like the… the, umm…
“I got it!” I shouted forgetting I was not the only one in the house.


“He can be the Prime Minister!” “Wow, I am so smart aren’t I,” I said.
Now to the basement, I went to tell him my wonderous idea. Long after I explained the solution to how
he finally be rich, and him thinking for hours on end, He finally agreed. But with that, he said, “What will
I trade for Lucifers great job I wonder?”


The next day, I woke up to my dad yelling, “Neta, come on I have to go run some errands and you are
coming with me!”
“ But whyy’’ I groaned while dragging myself out from under my cosy bed sheets.
“We are going to take the prime ministers job... hehehe”
“Fine,” I said still half asleep.
So off we went to go rule the country. More like off we went for my dad to rule the country.
To be continued...

Day in the life of a nurse at war

Day in the life of a Nurse at war
Blood flowing, grazes gaping, shell shock, injuries everywhere… how could this be
my job and how could I love it? I love it because I get to help people who are
defending and fighting for my country. BOOM, CRASH, BOOM, CRASH!!! Guns and
bombs seemed to surround the hospital even though they were millions of miles
away. All this war and violence got me thinking … what has the world turned into? All it seems to be now is a terrible place full of terrible people which it is not! 
The smell of the hospital is comforting yet unique it smells like fresh wheat, lemons and grass. As the injured soldiers lay on their beds looking helpless I can’t help but
feel sorry for them.

BOOM! Oh My, that was loud I think I almost felt it… everyone evacuate the
building a bomb is coming!!! My fellow nurses and I now have to run in and out of the building collecting all the limbies before the bomb hits and executes them all. Where on earth are we all going to stay now????? And what happens about us nurses having medical equipment I wonder!..........
