What is an Informative Speech?

• An INFORMATIVE SPEECH presents information in ways that will help listeners understand and remember what they are hearing.

Informative Speech

• No matter what you are informing your audience of, CONTENT is important.
• However, HOW the content is delivered is just as important!

Remember…

• Speeches are delivered LIVE
• Thus, you only have one chance to tell and show the audience what you want them to know/understand
• They cannot rewind you/your speech back or turn the page back to review your presented information

Topic Selection:

• Since this is an informative speech, you should choose a topic that interests you and you are familiar with.
• Hence, this why we answered the three questions on the back board

Topic Selection:

• Also, remember your speech only needs to be FIVE MINUTES long…
• Thus, you should not choose a topic that is too large/broad that it cannot be covered/ explained effectively in such a short speech
• (The maximum time a speech can be before a student loses points is SEVEN MINUTES)

Your Speech Type:

• Your speech is going to be an EXPOSITORY speech
• An expository speech gives information about a specific subject
• Example: How a gasoline engine works

More about topic selection:

• You should analyze your audience and tailor your speech to their interests and previous knowledge.
• Remember: Your audience members are your classmates; plan accordingly.
