I'm teaching a class like this right now and I get sick of listening to political speeches, I'd like to see you argue that chocolate chip cookies are better than oatmeal rasin.  I heard a pretty good speech last year about why Seinfeld is the best sitcom ever - that was pretty interesting.  Have fun with it though, you don't have to pick something super heavy to persuade people of it, you just have to be professional.

Hey, I like this one. You're the first person who made me laugh today. Thanks, I needed a good laugh. But, I have been in other categories of serious topics today, so I needed a cheer up!

An easy one for the music topic would be to do it about how classical music affects the growth of plants or if it doesnt. For the dog topics it could be to reasearch about whether its true that their mouth is cleaner than the human mouth ( dont know why you would want to do that....but...anyways) . Another topic  saw once in a science fair was something with the simple atom. For the Atom one you can make an atom display and can explain about it and its importance and make a a poster about it too. Hope this gives you some ideas !! (seems easy ...na ? )

hey, i just won my election last week. DOn't make a funny opener. Make a funny speech. But be serious. I rapped at the end, it worked great. Also pick fun at your teahcers. Kids hear alot of speeches, but but being serious, then rapping, or singining, or telling a joke you will be remembered. Trust me, it works.

As a teacher the best one I ever heard was, "I squeezed the toothpaste too hard and it took me half an hour to get it back into the tube."\n\nAlso a good laugh was the boy who told me, "Last night while I was asleep my dog peed on the clothes I had ready for school and I didn't have any more clean clothes so my mom had to wash them and dry them before I could come to school."\n\nHOw about, "My dog ate my alarm clock"? That's a common one ...I see you already have it.\n\n"Our toaster is really old so it takes a long time to get all the toast made and this morning it was my turn to be last."\n\n"Last night our house was invaded by ants and it took an hour this morning for us to kill them all."\n\nReally, we teachers have heard lots of them, and we usually know that the real reason is that you overslept or something like that, so the truth is usually the best option .... unless you can think of something really funny that will give everyone a chuckle and if your teacher is the sort of person who will appreciate it ...they'll still know it's just a story but it might help .... if you don't make a habit of being late!!

I would include a few "social games" where people can interact and talk. (This usually leads to laughter and in turn fun).\n \nTry these website.

What's interesting to you may not be interesting to someone else.  So who is the speech going to be given to??  Think about the group you will be speaking to, then try to figure out what would be interesting to THEM (take into consideration things like their aprox. age group, their jobs, probably hobbies, etc.).  Good luck!

As a public speaking teacher for 30 years, I advise you to stay away from topics like abortion or Iraq.  They are overdone, too broad, and won't keep the interest of your audience - or else they'll be just plain angry if they disagree with you.\n\nI like "fun" topics for persuasion, such as either/or topics (Boxers or Briefs?  Chocolate or Vanilla?).  I also like topics of local controversy.  What's the hot topic around campus that people really care about?\n\nAny topic will keep your audience's attention if you choose your supporting information carefully.  Use anecdotes, humor, and a combination of logical and emotional appeals.

Cinco de Mayo, or maybe about Dia de los Muertos.  If it doesn't have to be on a theme related to the class, though, you could try doing it on something that really interests you, or that you know alot about.
