Travis - Speech

I am proud of saying my speech clearly . My goal is eye contact. How I am going to achieve my goal is to look at the back and over people.

We need Colour

Have you heard the saying ROY G BIV
This is a saying to help us remember the colours of the rainbow
Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet
When you look at the rainbow, what do you see? How do you feel?
What do colours mean to you?

1]
Colour matters! Imagine a world without colour. Everything would be black and white.Wouldn’t that be boring! Imagine if you looked out the window and all you saw was a grey sunrise. Instead of our beautiful sky, you saw white clouds against a grey sky.
wouldn't it make you feel sad and depressed.

2]
Colours help us stay safe. Just think about how we use colour on our roads. Look at traffic lights. When they are red, we know we have to stop and wait for the green light to tell us to go. Without colour, you would not know to go or stop . Everyone would crash.
Imagine a fire. If there was no colour how would you know if there was smoke or even flames. Because smoke can be hot ... so you would be in danger and you wouldn’t even know it.

3]
Picture this ... I look in the food bowl and everything looks the same colour! We need colour in food. Why? Because how could you cook if you don’t know what you are using ... like a apple and an orange! Or white rice or brown rice? Or chinese noodles and spaghetti?
Did you know that different coloured foods have different vitamins and minerals. These keep us healthy. So we need colour!
Plus colour helps us tell the difference between rotten and healthy food. I’d rather eat healthy colourful food! What about you?

So colour makes our world beautiful
Colour makes our world interesting
Colour makes our world a happy place to be

Just like a rainbow
