Check out Mrs. Neer's Speech Sample Outline below!
Notice that I do NOT use full complete sentences in several areas. This is an outline to guide my thoughts. Because I have had A LOT of practice in public speaking, this would be enough for me to guide my speech.
However, you may need to write out every word you're going to say and practice, practice, practice. That is OKAY! You can use flash cards or a trick from Mrs. Neer to you: blow up your font to about 35 pt or so and print your speech (or handwrite it in BIG letters). Practice until you no longer need your paper to help you.
****Your speech should be approximately 1 minute in length****
