Section outline

      1. The introduction is very often the last part to be written. It is easier to prepare it when you know in detail what you are going to say in your speech. The introduction is, in fact, a statement which includes all the major points, so leaving it until the end makes a lot of sense.
      2. The structure of a speech has been summarized as follows: “In the first part I tell them what I’m going to tell them; in the second part- well, I tell them; in the third part I tell them what I’ve told them.” (Ascribed to a Mr. J.H. Jowett, who quoted an unnamed veteran preacher describing three parts of a sermon, published in Northern Daily Mail of Durham, England in 1908)
      3. The outline can be written as topics or phrases, or the different points can be written as complete sentences (for a more detailed version).
