According to our book there are four components of an
introduction and three components of a conclusion. The components of an
introduction are first an attention getter, second a purpose and thesis, third
credibility and the fourth component is a preview of the main points. The
components of a conclusion are first review of the main points, second reinforcing
the purpose, and third providing closure for your audience. For my speech I am doing
Heart Disease, so for an attention getter I can use a story of a family member
that has died from heart disease or maybe a surprising statistic or fact. For
my purpose and thesis I will explain that I am going to talk about heart disease
and why, to establish credibility I will state how and why I am informed enough
to talk about it and for the main points I will go over what main points of
heart disease will be talking about. For my conclusion I will restate the main
points that I wanted to get across. I will reinforce the purpose and I will
provide closure by having an ending statement.
I like your little outline that goes into detail of the intro and conclusion. You did a great job of the description of it. I also like that you will be using an example from personal experience. That means that you have a pretty good connection with your topic. Your idea on how and what order you will be doing your intro and conclusion is great and very well organized. I will be doing the same probably. Seems that it is the way that makes most sense.
