Feet Wet Speeches

For class today, you will be giving one-minute speeches.

"Feet Wet" speeches are designed to be low-stakes and fun way to get over anxieties related to giving a speech in front of the class. You will choose your topic, and I will give you all one minute to prepare a speech to the class. Then, you will come to the front and deliver your speech. Easy!

In order to find fun and low-stakes topics (and to keep it fresh and random for me), we will be using the Would You Rather? question set.

Remember, these speeches are supposed to stress-free and there is no right answer. Focus on having a strong introduction, two or three main points, a strong conclusion, and filling up one minute.
