A speech outline consists of the basic parts of what you're speaking on, just not in detail. There is a chart, but I will try to show you anyways. Say you're writing a persuasive speech on not texting and driving. Your outline may look a little like this:

In the U.S. today there are ___ amount of deaths per minute. ____%of those are caused by car crashes. ______% of these car crashes are cause by one or more of the drivers involved texting.

These are basic notes. When you're writing out your actual speech, you will elaborate more. You should always start with a general statement, and work your way until you've narrowed it down to your topic as I have above.

Now for your 3 paragraphs

Here, your paragraphs will have a main topic and then supporting ideas.

So ask yourself the question that a persuade e might ask.

i.e. Why should I not text and drive?

1. Puts those around you in danger

~Your family

~Your friends

~You may even ruin someone else's life

(again these are just notes or an outline, so you elaborate later.)

2. There ARE consequences

~a lifetime in jail

~Confiscation of license

~a Guilty conscience for the rest of your days

3. Think how you'd feel if you were the victim

~You lose a loved one

~It was caused by someone not paying attention and making an inane (unimportant) Facebook post

~Now are you feeling different?

Then your conclusion should be a summary, or a recap of what you've just said.

On the other hand, if your speech is expository, it is pretty much the same thing but I'll provide another example.

Intro: There are many inhabitants on planet earth. A great majority of the earth is covered by animals. These animals roam where no human has gone before. One of these animals is a star nosed mole.

1. They have exclusive access to things we don't

~They live underground

~They have exceptional smell

~They have perfect claws for digging

2. They are very smart animals

~They make their way through tunnels even though they are virtually blind

~They can sense danger due to their hearing abilities

~ They become independent after 30 days from birth.

3. They are very unique

~The star shaped nose, for one

~Their tunnels let out under water the majority of the time

~ They live among small invertebrates and bugs instead of with other rodents.

and then your conclusion. So, basically a persuasion is mostly statistics and opinion, (but you never say I think or I believe or any first person reference for that matter in one of these. It depends on the situation but normally you shouldn't) and an explaining speech is facts about your subject.

Hope this helped and good luck with your speech! :)
