Speech

Hi my name is James sign I am going to talk about  what life would be like without flies .	You probably think that getting rid of flies would be a  good idea but they have a very important job to do.	If there were no flies, there would be dead animals everywhere, on the farms and in every country in the world..
Flies lay their eggs in the dead animals and pooh. Then maggots hatch and eat up all the rotting meat	Did you know that a fly actually have trunks, just like elephants do. They stick it into rotting stuff and suck it up. It blows bubbles as it eats. It tastes in its mouth and with its feet. Yummy!!!!!
Flies are very helpful to the corpse flower which is found in all sorts of countries. It is one of the biggest plants in the world and the stickiest. It smells like rotting meat which the flies think is food to eat.	When it goes into a corpse flower it gets pollen stuck to its wings then when it goes into another corpse flower it is pollinating them. Then they make seeds and grow new plants. They pollinate other flowers to.	Aaannnddd where would Venus fly trap plants get their breakfast lunch and tea. I hope I’ve changed your mind about how useful flies really are?? So let flies do more pollinating  and laying eggs and have more plants to stink to. Sign.

This morning when every one was asleep Dad and I went to chase all of the sheep that didn't have lambs onto a truck that was red and white. It was really quick and fun.

On Tuesday we were chasing sheep and I got exhausted when we finished because I went up and down the hills fast to. I had to bark like a dog, run up a hill fast and make sure the sheep didn't go the wrong way,scare them down the hill, round them back up again. Then I had to wait about half an hour on the side of the hill well mum and dad got the sheep to come and then I had to run onto the road and scare the sheep the right way with Kirsten my little sister and after that mum told me that she took five eggs out of her nest and they died because they were taken away from their mother. On Wednesday we were scanning the sheep that we got on Tuesday and I went to get a dog to help scare the sheep into the right pen.

Last night Dylan,Dad and I went to get some fire wood for the fire. We drove about three quarters of the way to the back of the farm. We got some bits of fire wood on the way there. When we were coming back we saw heaps of fire wood and when we got to a very steep hill we realised that we over loaded the trailer. We were skidding and sliding up the hill Dad made us get off and push ten times his weight. I slipped and slid half way down the hill on my bottom and then quickly ran up and jumped on the quad bike and we got home with nothing happening other us getting home.

On Saturday I played rugby. Our team faced Tyler's Team and we tried our very best to beat Tyler's team. I accidently pulled one of their players shorts down. In the end we were thrashing them. It ended up ten to six we won. The player of the day was Heme my best friend in the whole entire team If you include Caleb that is two.

It's time to run to the back of the farm.What! That is going to be a humangus run.
 "Oh well at least I will go faster down the hills.''
"Get away you silly chickens!" I shouted at all of our annoying chick choks.
"Squawk!" they cackled back at me.
What? Oh I am going down the first hill. I have to slow down or I could just climb the gate.
"Ok I'm finished" After I got inside I collapsed onto the couch and fell fast asleep until dinner time which is when Dylan woke me up.
