STUDY THIS SPEECH: On Purpose/Off Purpose
STUDY THIS SPEECH: A Matter of a Few Degrees
These are great speeches!
IN YOUR NOTEBOOK: While you are analyzing the speeches write down your answers to the questions below.
INTRODUCTION
- What is the Attention Grabber?
- How do they prove credibility?
- Do they Preview what will be discussed
BODY
This is where the main points are presented. How many did you find in this speech? (probably 2 or 3) And what are they?
CONCLUSION:
How do they wrap up the speech?
DRUM ROLL. . . Impromptu Time!!

Your family is going to LOVE this. 😉
YOU get to practice impromptu speeches by creating your own spur of the moment at home infomercials. You’re Welcome. =)
HERE’S HOW:
- Take 1 minute to walk around you house find a random item.
- Take 3 minutes to plan your speech,
- Give a 3 minute speech to someone in your family.
REMEMBER to use the basic “PARTS of a SPEECH” (Introduction, Body, Conclusion – see above)
TRY TO GIVE ABOUT 6 SPEECHES! But keep track of how many you were able to do before you family notices. Write down what you “sell” in your notebook, keep a list.
BONUS POINTS if your family DOES NOT figure out that you are doing this for an assignment. (Vanbucks)
AND THAT’S IT!!
I hope you gained something meaningful from both speeches and from inundating your family with your infomercials. =)
Get ready for more fun with Impromptu speeches this Thursday. There will be prizes.

See you soon!
