  4. Asking questions • Gets the audience involved in what you are saying • Fires up curiosity about your topic • Makes them active participants • Example: • Who here tonight is fed up with the way Washington is running our government? • Have you ever heard anyone say, “The devil made me do it? • Student Example

  5. Making references • Refer to your audience, physical surroundings, or other speakers • Approach allows you to be comfortable and conversational • Presents unity • Examples: • I see that Sally and John are in the audience.

  10. The thesis statement • Sentence that will tell your audience exactly what you will be speaking about • The focus of what your speech will address • Example: • “Today I am going to persuade you to vote for me” • “Today I will inform you about…” • Student Example

  11. The preview statement • Usually one sentence at the end of the introduction that gives the audience an overview of the major areas that will be discussed in the body of the speech • Roadmap telling your audience where you are headed • Example: • “Today I will review my qualifications for public office, my desire to serve the public, and what I plan to do for my constituents” • Student Example
