Get a small group together (3 people minimum) and brainstorm for 5 minutes as many ideas for a brief speech as you can. Ideas may be single words like “banana” or “battleship”. You must have at least 15 ideas. Write each idea on a small piece of paper, then group members draw 2 speech ideas each. They then choose one of the two topics, take 1 minute to gather their thoughts, then deliver a 3-4 minute speech on the topic. The listening group members should then briefly critique the speech before repeating the process with the next member.
