Order order!

Fellow speaker,

Some ways to organize your speech for a speech designed to inform:
  • Chronological - give the speech in the order that things happened, with first things first, second things second, etc.
  • Topical - pick out the topics you want to talk about and clearly describe each topic for each section of the speech
  • Notable - give the topics according to the order of their importance, with least importance first and most important last

Organized,

Tim
