Year 7 Speechs

In inquiry we have been studying the incredible human machine. We had to write a speech for homework and i chose to do mine on visual impairment.  

Hi I would like to talk to you today about visual impairment/blindness and the people who are visually impaired and talk about some of their incredible stories and how they have adapted to a life where they cant see. Being blind and doing everyday things that most people do is incredibly difficult and it affects your life massively, just imagine being so blind you couldn't even make out light well welcome to the world of the visually impaired. when you see a blind person most of the time you won't even know their blind they look like ordinary people and most of them get along with their lives well. but probably the ones that you see have a white cane and if you didn't know it's the  stick like thing they hold to feel out things so they know where they are going, well these are for the partially blind which is still really bad but they can still see but really badly. But the people that are fully blind usually have a guide dog which is usually a labrador and the dogs will guide them around so they don't end up being roadkill. Now I would like to talk about Daniel Kish and how he has learned to use his remaining senses to help him, he can do everyday things like ride a bike, do chores do chores and go for walks but what is most interesting is how he achieves it. He makes a peculiar sound with the back of his throat and the sound waves bounce off all the objects around him and they come back to his ears which tells him where thing are and say if it was a car how fast it was coming.
Probably the most common ways a person is visually impaired is from birth  and other ways is from accidents that has injured the eye and the other is certain types of eye cancer. Back in the old days if you were blind you were blind and there was no cure to it but now in the modern days there are surgeries and one of them is replacing the old lens that disables the vision to a new synthetic lens and the surgery is only $300 but that is not good for the the millions of kids or people in poor countries or areas or families becuase they can't afford it.

This is my ice cream van, i made and designed it in graphic design in tech,  its a really simple design and my logo is a tilted ice cream. I hope you like my design.
