Write a speech to deliver to your year group in assembly, arguing that smoking is bad for them.
Ladies and Gentlemen; did you know: Smoking is extremely bad for you; 20 percent of all early deaths are from smoking? Not only do you die earlier, but it can cause other illnesses such as lung cancer, heart disease, oesophagus cancer and chronic bronchitis.

Who would want to hang around a person who stinks and has yellow teeth?
