Walk through 

your speech

Introduction

 Does it:

 grab attention?

 Introduce the topic?

Relate to the audience?

Preview the main points?

Introduce your theme?

Use transition words? 

My introduction ticks all the boxes.

😒🙁😐🙂😃

Body

How many subtopics does your body have? 

If you can't count them, you still need to work on your structure. If you have more than 3 points, it may be too much.

The subtopics are all hinted at in the final sentence of my introduction.

I am pleased with the body of my speech.

Conclusion

My conclusion reinforces the main points.

My conclusion could refers back to something I said before.

I finish my speech with a bang.

My conclusion ticks all the boxes.

😒🙁😐🙂😃

I still have a question about my speech.

When you perform your speech it could help to literally walk through your speech. Count the subtopics of your speech and write those words on small papers. Put them on the floor in the right order with at least a meter between the papers. Start at one topic and when you are ready for the next paragraph walk to the next paper.
