My speech

My speech topic is why do ships sink? I chose this topic because I'm obsessed with the Titanic. When I presented my speech I felt mad. What I did well was my volume. What I could have done better was talk slower.

Do you know why ships sink? A ship is a large boat that transports people or goods. Ships sink because they hit icebergs, catch fire and get caught in war and some just disappear.

Firstly ships sink because they hit icebergs. The RMS Titanic hit an iceberg and sank on the 14th April, 1912. Over 1500 people died.

Secondly ships sink because they get caught up in the war.  The Rainbow warrior got bombed by the French. It is sunk at Matauri Bay. During war the Britannic sank by an explosion.

Lastly sometimes ships just disappear and sink. 50 ships has disappeared in the Bermuda Triangle.

Ships can sink for lots of reasons.
