Hi, welcome back to my blog. Today I am showing you my writing create task. This week we have been working on speeches. The topic of my speech is: Zero hunger. This is my favorite paragraph.
66 million primary school-age children attend classes hungry across the developing world, with 23 million in Africa alone. That is more than 3 times the people that are in NZ. Imagine if that was all of NZ. Everyone that you know would be starving. Your friends would be starving. Your family would be starving. You would be starving. But luckily it's not you. It's 66 million others. That's 66 million children aged around 5-11 going to school starving. Imagen if you had to go to school or work without breakfast and probably without lunch as well. How would you feel? That's how 66 million children feel everyday. If there are 23 million children starving just in Africa right now imagen how much that number will grow in even 6 years if we don't do something about it. But that's not it. Hunger and undernutrition contribute to more than half of global child deaths, as undernutrition can make children more vulnerable to illness.
That was my favorite paragraph of my speech. Do you think that it was good?
