1) Choose from two prompts - 10 seconds
2) When I say go, you have 90 seconds to outline your speech
3) Your goal is to speak 1 minute, 30 seconds
HINTS:
P.R.E.P. (Point. Reason. Example. Point)
Share the primary reason (or reasons, if you have more time).
Share an example (preferably in story form) where your main point or reason is supported.
Finally, conclude by summarizing your central point again.
Issue, Pros vs. Cons, Conclusion
Start off by framing the issue.
Talk about the benefits (use an anecdote - a personal story)
Talk about the drawbacks. (again, anecdote or example)
Conclude with your recommendation.
5W – In this pattern, you cover your topic by addressing the Who, What, When, Where, and Why elements. This is also issue oriented -
[1] Who is involved
[2] what the goals are;
[3] when it started, and the schedule for the future;
[4] where does it take place; and
[5] why are you involved.
Use personal stories. Stories are emotional, real, and interesting. If you stick to personal stories, you’ll find that it is much easier to speak (even without preparation) because the events happened to you.
