Public Speech

AttendancePlease raise your hand and say “HERE!”

Nice job last week giving your layout speeches!Just remember to …

Speak a bit LOUDER! Look at EVERYONE in your audience! Use a few HAND GESTURES!

Since the beginning of this course, you have learned about …

1. Body Posture2. Eye Contact3. Hand Gestures4. Voice Inflection(pages 28-38, DVD #3)

Let’s look at page 28!What is voice inflection?

Voice inflection means changing your voice in order to emphasize important words in

your speech.

You can change your voice in one of three ways:

1. Stress a word or phrase2. Stretch a word or phrase3. Pause before a word or phrase

Let’s listen to three examples on page 28!

Why is voice inflection important?

Just like gestures, it makes your speech more interesting and

energetic, and it helps the audience understand your speech!

Look at the bottom of page 28!Let’s listen to

two radio advertisements!

Which radio announcer uses voice inflection?

Let’s listen again!

This time, write down the words that the radio announcer

emphasizes.

After listening, check your words with your partner.

Now, let’s look at page 29!Listen to the six sentences and write a check mark next to the type of voice inflection that the

speaker uses.

Let’s listen again!

This time, underline the words that the speaker emphasizes.

What kinds of words should be inflected when you give a speech?

Let’s look at pages 30-31!

Usually, we emphasize words from these five word groups:

1. Numbers2. Action words (verbs)3. Descriptive words (adjectives

and adverbs)4. Comparison words5. Negative words

Listen to each sentence and underline the inflected word or

phrase for each of the five word groups.

Which word or phrase did you underline?

Now, listen again and repeat each sentence using voice inflection

for the inflected words that you underlined.

Let’s practice more!Work with a partner.

Choose who is Student A and Student B. Stand up! Student A: Look at page 32. Student B: Look at page 34.

Student A:Read the sentences on page 32. There are two sentences for each of the five

slides.

Student B:Listen to the sentences your partner

reads. Then, repeat the sentences using voice inflection AND gestures.

Now, change roles! Student A: Look at page 33. Student B: Look at page 35.

Speech Preparation(page 38)

Step 1: PLAN. Make a storyboard on a sheet of A4.

Step 2: PREPARE. Illustrate the steps using photos or

drawings (I recommend using photos!).

Step 3: PRACTICE. Practice all of the physical skills,

especially gestures and voice inflection.

STEP 4: PERFORM. Use your visual to explain.

HomeworkPrepare a two-minute demonstration speech teaching your classmates how to do something. Use the guide on page 38 to help you.

Examples:how to make your favorite food or drinkhow to ride a motorcyclehow to play a gamehow to shop on the Internethow to put on makeup
