My speech

 Talofa lava everyone and welcome back to my blog. This week for writing we were finishing off our speeches. We have been working a lot on our speeches. We got to choose our speech from 4 different topics and i chose to write my speech on zero hunger. we didn't really have a create task this week but we do have to show a couple of our favourite paragraphs from our speech.

Here is a bit of my speech:

The reason I like these 2 paragraphs is because I think it is important to know about what is happening when people don't get food but i also think it is important to know how we can help towards this.

What is a quality blog comment?

 Kia Ora everyone and welcome back to my blog. During cyber smart, We have been learning about what a quality blog post and blog comment is.  The reason we were learning this is because it is important to know the difference between a good and bad blog comment. We need to know this so that we can write good blog comments on each others blogs.

Here is what we have done: 

After learning about this, we have new leanings. We now know the
