Choosing a Topic

     I chose the topic of wanting longer passing periods for my opinion speech after hearing someone else talk about the idea. Sometime leading up to my opinion speech, I heard someone say that it would be so nice if we had longer passing periods. I heard this belief and very much agreed with it. I decided that it would be a great opinion to share in my class because I feel like we can all relate to it. I anticipate selecting topics for future speeches by picking a topic that I find interesting, while also choosing one that the audience would enjoy hearing about. I personally have chosen topics that I have heard others talk about, and ones that interest my audience and me.

I'm excited to hear your next speech! I love the last one you presented, you did well!

I think its a good idea that you're basing your speech off something you heard in the hallways. I feel like that could personalize it more and make it more relatable.

I also agree that choosing a topic that both speaker and audience find interesting would be really beneficial to both factions. This way both parties may enjoy the speech!

I like how you got your idea from something you heard and related to. That makes for a great speech because you obviously care about it and you know that other people do to because of that you overheard!

I totally agree with you. I love how you mentioned wanting to be relatable to your audience. It is important to come up with a topic that is interesting to you, and will also draw the listener in.
