Tips for picking a topic:
• Don’t pick a topic that is too big of broad. You have a limited amount of time for each speech so you need to pick a topic that can be completed or covered in the allotted time.
• Don’t pick a topic that is too technical or obscure.
Places to find topics:
• Newspaper
o School Newspaper
• Television
• Magazines
o Discover magazine
o Scientific American
o National geographic
o Martha Stewart Living
o Newsweek
o Time
The general purpose is always 2 words
Ex. To demonstrate, to inform, to persuade
GPS- GENERAL PURPOSE STATEMENT
SPS – SPECIFIC PURPOSE STATEMTENT
SPS= GPS + “my audience” + your specific topic
Guidelines for writing the specific purpose statement:
The SPS should be a full sentence, not a fragment.
The SPS should be a statement, not a question.
Avoid figurative language in the SPS. (Ex. “best,” “greatest”)
Limit the SPS to one distinct idea.
The SPS should not be too vague or too general.
The SPS should be very specific.
Central Idea Statement:
CIS= SPS+ main points
In the spoken speech, the CIS appears two times.
1. At the end of the introduction to preview the speech
2. At the beginning of the conclusion to review the speech.
To inform my audience about ------ by first discussing------, second, -----, and finally ----.
As you add in the main point, simply put in the words “first,” “second,” “third” etc. as needed.
(This will help your audience follow along with your speech organization)
Example CIS:
SPS= to inform my audience of the three major uses of pyramids in ancient Egypt.
I. Pyramids were used as tombs for the burial of monarchs.
