Components
The components that go into an introduction of a speech are the following things: attention getter,purpose,thesis,establishing credibility, and a preview of the main points one is going to be speaking about. I took notice that all of these elements are used in our speech outline examples as well, it all makes sense. By including an attention getter, the speaker will do exactly what it says, get the attention of people, in this case, the audience. For my speech, my attention getter is going to be, "How many of you have filled out a FAFSA before?" For those who have and for those who havn't, well I think it will grab their attention because they might feel anxious towards the subject, or maybe not, I might need to work on it.The purpose of including a purpose and a thesis is for the audience to know what the speaker is going to talk about and why they are going to speak about it. Including your main points in the introduction is very pivotal because you will allow the audience to know about the main things you are going to be talking about, that way they will know from the beginning and not have to guess what your main points are throughout the speech.

Hello Ms.Jeter! Polling questions are always effective for an attention getter since it makes the audience think about what you are saying.
ReplyDeleteDo you know exactly how you are going to use each of the required components for the intro and conclusion? How exactly do you plan on building your credibility at the start of the speech and throughout? Also, from hearing past speeches, what were the most effective attention getters you noticed? Did you notice any highly effective conclusions? :)
