How Do I Write a Speech on Fire Prevention?

Writing speeches can be easier than it seems. With a firm grasp on the subject, any speech can be condensed to reminders stored on index cards, so cues on talking points are simple to view without making it look like your are reading a speech directly. Practicing in the mirror can help build confidence. Fire prevention can be organized into tips and points. It sounds natural to fill in explanation and narrative when you know what the talking points are by a simple glance at your reminder card. This approach also helps you stay within your speaking time limits.

      Gather your fire prevention information from your most likely sources. Use the Internet, library or visit your local fire station for handouts. Concentrate the information that stands out as most important by placing it at the top of your point list. Establish at least five points you wish to embellish or inform about.

      Take each major point about fire prevention and place it on an index card---one point per card. Arrange the cards in the order you wish to present them to your audience.

      Jokes make speeches more fun. Try on a fire engine joke to see if it works for you.

      Decide if you will need any props, such as pictures or items that clarify what you're saying or entertain---some of the best speeches are ones that make people laugh. Accomplish this by showing or describing a silly mistake that can cause a fire. Use jokes to make points, such as a child deducing that red fire engines must cause fires because every time there is a fire, there are red engines nearby.

      Know your time limits, and number your card reminders so they end when your time is running out. Do this by timing yourself during practice runs.

      Giving your speech to yourself in front of a mirror can help.

      Use your statement information cards like memorization flash cards if you need to deliver a speech with no card or word supports. Go through them slowly. Do this in order to help you memorize your speech more quickly.
