Pick a topic 

You can give a speech on objects, a process, anevent, or a concept.

Its a good rule is to choose something you are

extremely familiar with. Also do at least some

research on the topic.

Remember, informative speeches simply inform

people. Don’t give opinion.

Narrow down your topic 

You should be able to thoroughly cover your topic inthe time allotted.

Pick out a specific purpose for your speech to guide

your presentation as well as guide your audience's

attention.

Develop your thesis 

The thesis is a statement that describes your (narrowed) topic.

Ex: “In this speech, you will learn about zippers” should

be "In this speech, you will learn how the zipper was

first invented."

Do your research & Knowyour Audience 

If there's one rule to writing an informative speech it'sthis: know your subject. Use reliable sources and

take notes as you go

It's a good idea to assume they know little about your 

topic. (Which is why you’re informing them, right?)

With this in mind, you may need to give background

information
