INTRO TECHNIQUE FOR THE GUM TOPIC: Introduction Technique: Anecdote “While sitting in my debate class, waiting for my teacher to start her lecture, I grabbed the table to scoot my chair in. I then realized that I was stuck to the table thanks to a nice, juicy, unsanitary, fresh piece of already been chewed bubblegum. ”

JUSTIFICATION • Where you tie in your technique to your speech • Should flow naturally if the technique is not random • Can be all of One Sentence • Shouldn’t be more than 2

CONTINUED INTRODUCTION FOR GUM: Justification: Don’t you hate when that happens? So that is why, if you ask me, ‘Should gum be allowed in school? ’ I have to answer no!

SIGN POST • This is where you tell them what you’re going to tell them • It’s like a preview to your speech • External Analysis • Aids in communicating your message

SIGNPOST FOR GUM: “I say no because of three main reasons. First, it increases distractions. Second, it presents a cleanliness problem. Lastly, it promotes bad habits for children with still forming minds. ”

You would then go into the body of your speech using a transitional phrase such as: “Let’s look at increased distractions first…” Explain the internal analysis (a’s and b’s) for each of the main points. DON’T RUSH! Make sure that you use a strategy, such as cause and effect.

INTRO TECHNIQUE FOR CONCLUSION “But until others agree with me, You better believe I will check underneath the tables before I scoot my chair in!” *Please note, you are not repeating the story, just referring back to it. Be Creative!
