Speech is a natural ability of humans to communicate verbally, developed over thousands of years. It is difficult to attribute its invention to a single individual, as communication through speech likely evolved as early humans interacted with each other and developed language skills.
The form of speech depends on the intention of the author, of what he wants to do: tell, describe, explain, defend a viewpoint or a proposed action. We distinguish five forms of discourse: the narrative, descriptive, argumentative and injunction.
What is a good declamation piece for an elementary student?
Forget It If you see a tall fellow ahead of a crowd, A leader of men, marching fearless and proud, And you know of a tale whose mere telling aloud Would cause his proud head to in anguish be bowed, It's a pretty good plan to forget it. If you know of a skeleton hidden away In a closet, and guarded and kept from the day In the dark, and whose showing, whose sudden display, Would cause grief and sorrow and lifelong dismay, It's a pretty good plan to forget it. If you know of a thing which will darken the joy Of a man or woman, a girl or a boy, Which will wipe out a smile, or the least way annoy A fellow, or cause any gladness to cloy It's a pretty good plan to forget it.

Argumentative speech is a type of communication that aims to persuade or convince an audience about a specific topic or viewpoint. It typically involves presenting evidence, facts, and reasoning to support a particular argument while acknowledging and refuting opposing viewpoints. The goal is to influence the audience to adopt or consider the speaker's perspective on the issue being discussed.
What are different kinds of speeches?
If you mean "kinds of speeches that are delivered to an audience," then the one system of classification uses the following general goals:
1. to entertain -- the speech that has no purpose other than to get the audience's attention and to hold it;
2. to inform -- the speech that seeks to convey to the audience some information, understanding, or skill;
3. to persuade: (a) to convince the audience of the correctness of an intellectual position (uses mostly logical arguments); (b) to stimulate the audience to change attitudes or values (uses mostly emotional arguments); (c) to actuate the audience to take some course of action (uses both logical and emotional arguments).
Here are some examples of how those types of speeches can be used with one topic:
Photography.
1. to entertain the audience with an account of how you lost your camera, went through a series of adventures while looking for it, and eventually found that your cat had dragged into the hall closet and was repeatedly setting off the flash unit with its paw.
2. to inform the audience of the comparative features of film cameras and digital cameras.
3. (a) to convince the audience that paying for some specific features of a camera is a wise investment; (b) to stimulate the audience to value photographic art as highly as we generally value graphic art; to actuate the audience to pay more attention to the skill and art of taking family and vacation pictures.
Speech is the vocalized form of communication used by humans to express thoughts, emotions, and ideas. It involves producing sounds using the vocal cords and mouth, which are then combined into words and sentences to convey meaning.
Formal speech refers to a style of speaking that follows established rules of etiquette, decorum, and language. It typically includes using proper grammar, vocabulary, and tone suitable for professional or ceremonial settings. This type of speech is often used in official speeches, presentations, or public speaking engagements.
Oratorical speech refers to a form of public speaking that is characterized by its artful and persuasive use of language to deliver a message or idea to an audience. This type of speech often involves the speaker using rhetorical devices, such as metaphors, alliteration, and emotional appeals, to engage and persuade listeners. Oratorical speeches are typically delivered with energy, passion, and a clear sense of purpose.
A persuasive speech is a type of speech that aims to convince the audience to adopt the speaker's point of view or take a specific action.

An informal style of speech is casual. A person using an informal style of speech often does not format their language or adhere to strict etiquette.
How do you start off debate speeches?
1) I depends what kind of debate you are talking about and at what point in the debate you are in.
For the sake of argument lets say that you are in a competitive debate ie high school, college, you are on a debate team of some sort.
In the first part of the debate or you first speech you will tell a story. If you are debating about the aids problem in Africa and you want to convince the judge that we need to send more money then tell a short heart-warming tear jerking tale of a small boy who has lost both his parents to aids and now lives on the street fighting to survive.
Later on in the debate or for your later speeches give a road map. This tells the judge the order of the arguments that you are going to make and the reasons why you are winning the debate.
2) Well, I do debating in school and my teacher ALWAYS makes us start off with this...
Good Morning madam chairperson distinguished time keeper members of the proposition and members of the opposition (can address the audience also if you wish)
Then you could include some things like...
-personal experience(tell storys to improve your point)
-report statistics(this shows that you've researched)
-experts statements
-newspaper articles
-Qutations(hint hint ;)this is a good way to start off your speech)
during your speech ask the audience questions also you have to appeal to their emotions so also try to use descriptive words.
3) There are many different ways to start off a debate, but introducing yourself is the way to go! :) DO NOT PUT IN PERSONAL EXPERIENCES in your debate speech because that will make you lose marks.
It is unfair for the opposition to rebut your personal experience because that makes everything awkward.
For example, you were on affirmative team and the topic was 'The health system is not good enough'. If you were to include a personal story, like how your grandmother died because the medical attention was not good enough, then the negative team could not rebut this...
Include:
-signposting (if first speaker)
-rebuttals
-quotations
-statistics

Can you give an example of a short oration speech?
Just one example of a short oration (or, oration speech) would be Abraham Lincoln's 'Gettysburg Address.' Deliverable in less than two minutes, the speech is generally considered to be an oratorical masterpiece.
A speech is a formal address given to an audience, often delivered by a person to convey a message, share information, or persuade listeners on a particular topic. It typically includes an introduction, body with main points, and a conclusion.
