Step 1 Consider the scenario.
Imagine that you need to submit a proposal for an informative speech about one topic of your choice. If your proposal is accepted, you will have 30 minutes to present your speeches.
Step 2 Paste the table.
Copy and paste the following table into your document. Use this table to plan your speech. When you copy and paste this into your paper you submit, it should expand as needed. DO NOT send this info without it being in the table, please.
Step 3 Enter a topic in the topic column.
Enter a topic suitable for each scenario presented in Step 1 in the Topic column of the table.
Step 4 Enter the specific purposes.
In each of the three Specific Purpose cells, enter a specific purpose that matches the corresponding general purpose statement. This means that you could take this topic in at least three ways if you were to give the speech, so think of three specific purposes for your topic.
Step 5 Enter the theses.
In each of the three Thesis cells, enter a thesis based on the corresponding specific purpose statements. Your thesis will change according to the purpose, so all of them should be ones that correspond to each of the purposes.
Step 6 Identify and generate main points.
