Persuasive speech plan
Speech title: Keep a good stance!
Audience Adaptation Plan
1. Audience attitude: I believe that most of my audience knows much about how to keep a good stance but they do not pay attention to it. They do not take it as a habit. A bad stance may not impact on them now, but gradually they will feel the pain that a bad stance should bring to them. My purpose is to let them know the importance of keeping a good stance.
2. Reasons: I believe that the five examples that are most likely to convince my audience are keeping a good stance when sitting, standing, sleeping, moving things, and controlling weight.
3. Selecting an organization to meet audience attitude: I have organized my speech in a way that my audience will know the importance of keeping a good stance and what will become if they have Scoliosis.
