INFORMATIVE SPEECH WRITING

Directions: You must write out the outline for your speech that you will use for the speech and submit at the end of class, the day prior to speeches.
Be sure to include:

1. 1. Title of the speech.
2. 2. Specific Purpose
3. 3. Central Idea
4. 4. Method for presenting the information: (Event, Object, Process, or Concept)
5. 5. Identify the logical process: (Chronological, Topical, Space, Causal, etc…)
6. 6. Be sure to include your main points, sub-points, and enumeration
7. 7. Reference information – work cited info must be on the outline.

The outline should not be the sentence by sentence or play by play of the speech. It should include your main ideas, topics and your notes for speaking. The outline you turn in is the same outline you must use for your reference notes for your speech.

In addition, two classmates (communication) must proof and critic your outline; failure to do so will result in a reduction of 10% per proof-person of the total grade for the written assignment. Class time can be spent for this, but we will only have one class period for research/writing/proofing so work hard on your part!

*Also – don’t forget you must have a visual aid to use with your speech!
***And do not forget to practice!

For this speech be sure that you continue to fill in the "holes" for material and from peer editing in class.

Remember you need an introduction, body, and conclusion that discuss your main points and two sub-points per main point. The intro, body, and conclusion should discuss the points of your speech as follows: tell us what you are going to tell us about, tell us about it, and tell us what you told us about in your speech! It's a bit simple, but if you can read your outline and it includes your information you wanted to say - you are good to go!

Be sure that your central purpose and main purpose line up and we can take those thoughts away after hearing your speech!

Be confident, prepare, practice, and you can succeed!

For the speech: Have a written outline to turn in prior to your speech and have your own notes either in the form of a few note cards or with a single paper and bullet points.

Do not read your speech to the class! No Curious George speeches will be accepted!

You are welcome to use visual aids that you can pass around in class.
