The foundation of a really great speech is a really great outline. Great speakers are prepared speakers. They don't ramble with too many words, lose focus, or run out of things to say because they created an outline with a clearly stated (1) introduction of a topic, (2) main points that support the topic, and (3) a conclusion with a call to action. In this class, students will create an outline for a speech. They will learn how to deliver interesting speech introductions, develop at least three significant main points for their speeches, and write conclusions that summarize the main points of their speeches. *** This OUTLINE is a speech preparation tool I use in my public speaking classes, including: Public Speaking for Pre-Teens (Ages 9-13) Public Speaking for Ages 10-14 Public Speaking for Teens (Ages 14-18) with a TED Speaker Advanced Public Speaking With a TED Speaker (Ages 9-14) Advanced Public Speaking With a TED Speaker (Ages 14-18) 1-on-1 Public Speaking for Teens: Tutoring with a TED Speaker 1-on-1 Public Speaking for Kids: Tutoring With a TED Speaker Public Speaking for Kids - Private Tutoring with a TED Speaker Public Speaking Workshop for Ages 10-14 (3-Day Workshop / 45 min. each)
