my Speech

Today I was learning how to present a speech because we are doing our speech. 

I enjoyed saying it to the class. 

I found it difficult to to find some facts about drums. 

Do You Think Drumming is an Awesome Instrument?

Do you think drumming is an awesome instrument? I personally think yes. There are Lots of different beats you can learn, You can learn how to play different songs and you can learn the Purpose of a drum, Making it an awesome instrument to play. 

First of all, you can learn a lot of different beats. On a drum set there is a 

snare, high tom, mid tom, low tom, bass drum, hi hats, ride cymbal, and 

crash cymbal. My favourite beat is Paradiddle because it's very simple and 

you can play it in three different ways. The first way is a very simple way, 

second is a hardesh one and last one is more complex because there more 

More beats. Whatever the beat is called, it's probably what the beat sounds 

like.   You can make up your own beats or learn different beats. in my opinion 

The easiest beat is the drum roll and the hardest beat is the bear bone, 

which an article stated took someone 30+ years to learn That is a crazy 

amount of time to learn a beat. 

Secondly, you can learn how to play a song. For example if you like a song so much and you want to play it on an instrument you can play it on drums. I think the easiest song to play on drums is probably Livin on a Prayer by Bon Jovi and the hardest song to play on drums is Moby Dick by Led zeppelin. The best female drummer is Cindy Blackman. She has been in two bands, the spectrum road and santana. The best male drummer is John Bonham. He has been in two bands, led Zeppelin and band of joy. 

Lastly, the purpose of a drum is to keep everyone in time. The bass normally keeps everyone in time but if the bass drummer isn't there you can still keep yourself in time and everyone else in time. If you're in a pipe band the purpose of a drum is to give beat to the bagpipes. There are multiple different types of drums one drum is a cajon it is basically a snare drum but you sit on it and use your hands but sometimes you can use soft drum sticks. 

In this speech I have shared 3 reasons why you should become a drummer. There's lots of different beats you can learn, you can learn how to play songs and the purpose of a drum.  This is why you should start drumming.

African Elephants

African Elephants are mammals which means they are warm blooded and herbivores so they are plant eaters. Loxodont africana is there scientific name. The 2 species of African Elephant are Savannah/Bush and Forest Elephant. A family of Elephants contains females, their babies and other female Elephants. The male Elephants live on there own or live with other males. Female African Elephants are called cows, Male Elephants are called bulls and baby Elephants are called Calves. There used to be over 120,000 African Elephants but now there are 600,000 to 700,000 African Elephants. 

African Elephants can weigh up to 2.5 to 7 tons and 12 to 24 ft in length. Their trunks can make heaps of noises, not just trumping noises. The trunk has the most muscles. Also have huge tusk to hunt for predators. In their body they have over 40,000 muscles. They have huge teeth, there molars will grow six times in a lifetime and grow 10 to 12 inches long and weigh more than 3.6 kg. 

African Elephants can live in multiple places mostly found in sub saharan Africa. Some are found tropical and subtropical places, dry lands and by water holes. Water holes give them access to water so they can drink water and have water baths. 

African Elephants can live up to 70 years or older. With there tunk they can do heaps of things like dig holes, bath them. When African Elephants greet each other they touch trunks. When they're happy, joyful, excited or ready to fight they make grunting noises. In their lifetime they make 70 sounds and 160 signals. The noise that they make the most is a trumpeting noise. When a baby african elephant is born they weigh up to 120 kgs, they in there mums tummy for 22 months till it is born. 

Some Elephants have been extinct and I think elephants should not be extinct because they are innocent creatures and deserve better than they get.
