Speech Structure: Building the Body and Polishing the Conclusion
After the introduction we always should have the body in the speech. The body is the most important thing of all presentation.
Outline
Introduction:
1. Questions and curiosity take the students to a new level
A. Both these things are magnets that draw us towards our teachers.
B. Teachers can be robbing themselves of student's questions because of technologies.
C. Through the students questions, teachers have information that they can use to tailor robust and informed methods of blended instruction.
2. Student's questions are the seeds of real learning, not some scripted curriculum that gave them tidbits of random information.
A. Curiosity helps to understand what works and what doesn't.
B. Don't afraid to make mistakes
C. Through intense reflection we should gother the information that we need to design and then work with it confidently.
Body:
1. Curiosity comes first
A. Questions can be windows to great instruction, but not the other way around
2. Embrace the mess.
A. Trial and error can still be an informal part of what we do every single day.
3. Practice reflection.
A. What we do is important. It deserves our care, but it also deserves our revision.
Conclusion:
1. If educators leave behind this simple role as disseminators of content and embrace a new paradigm as cultivators of curiosity and inquiry, they just might bring a little bit more meaning to their school day, and spark their imagination.
A. To spark the interest of children, so that they are interested and asked questions.
The second task is to write a conclusion for the following speech.
Establishing and developing effective communication is important in order to be heard and change your environment according to your own thoughts. No one will guess what you want or what you think if you don’t tell them, and nothing is going to change if you do not propose a change. The purpose of my speech is to discuss three important skills that will help you communicate effectively. Such skills are not to be afraid of speaking, express exactly what you mean to say, and listen while you are not speaking.
The first aspect to communicate effectively is not to be afraid of speaking. Anytime you need to say something, go ahead and do it. Most of the times people are afraid of speaking because they are not sure if it is the right thing to say or the right moment to say it. Be sure, say what you want to say, and do not regret it. If you speak you will be heard and taken into account. You are important so you need to be heard. There is one thing you should not do somehow: Do not say something that will hurt somebody’s feelings. Unless that something has to be said inevitably, say it, but as softly and gently as you can. Never hurt anyone intentionally. Always think twice before saying something. You choose what to say, just be sure to say the right thing at the right time. If you do that, you won’t regret a thing.
The second main aspect of effective communication is to express exactly what you mean to say. Pick up the words that will express exactly what you are thinking of. Do not forget that one half of a word belongs to the listener and the other to the speaker. The listener gets their own version of what is said. However your job is to express yourself clearly, so that you can avoid misunderstandings. Although, avoiding misunderstandings is a hard task (not impossible), when it is achieved you will be expressing yourself effectively. Everybody will be able to identify exactly what you say, what you think, and what you want. Words are double edged weapons which can be used either to defend or to attack. If you make a good use of them, you will be able to do almost everything.
The third main point to effective communication, and probably the most important of all, is the listening part. Listen and do not interrupt when it is no longer your turn to speak. You will surely learn new things from listening to others. If a person is speaking, it’s because she or he wants to be heard. Effective communication is based on both listening and speaking. If communication were based only on speaking, it would be an absolute tyranny. Nevertheless, communication is the means through which you express yourself in order to be heard and change your environment according to your own version of reality. Thus, it would be impossible to change anything if there were no one to listen, learn, and accept new ideas. Listening is a gift, and good listeners are always appreciated because there are only a few.
Conclusion: To sum up my speech, I would like to you remember these simple things. Every person has his own opinion and wants to say and be heard. Just be more attentive to others and respect other opinion. Listen and you will be heard.

The second task is to write a conclusion for the following speech.
How to Communicate Effectively
