Tropicana Speech - How to Develop

Tropicana speech tips on developing and delivering effectively the classical three parts when giving speeches. Each should have three parts, according to the basic speech science theories:

  • an Introduction to grab the audience's attention;
  • a Body, which is the main message and delivers most of the information, supported by arguments, facts and evidence;
  • a Conclusion, which brings everything together and makes the final point or call to action.

The students who participate in this public speaking contest are told not to memorize the Tropicana speech, but rather to just mentally organize the basic structure and know their speech topics ideas inside and out so they can deliver the most natural sounding presentation possible.

If they have something of great importance that they want to have memorized, they should just use a small notecard or paper with brief notes to jog their memories. In this way, they can make constant eye contact with their audience and especially with individual members of the public, which is extremely important for the delivering of an excellent talk and for developing more self-confidence of my students and pupils.

I call this simple but effective technique the Tie a Tie to Your Audience Method and it is highly recommended by every public speaking instructor or speech science professor. This will also enable the participants to speak with the enthusiasm that's needed for an effective performance.

Now some words about the essential speech contest topics tips I use to give to my pupils. I always advise participating 4 through 6 graders:

  • to speak with power so their voice will carry, but without yelling;
  • to speak as if they are talking to their best friends;
  • to understand that it's okay and even effective to pause for a moment to think about a point instead of saying um or something like that;
  • and not to say thank you at the end of the public presentation, since the audience should thank thém for a job well done.
In conclusion: developing Tropicana speech contest topics and the participation to the competetions are rewarding and character-building experiences for all: participants and teachers. Do think about using the contest next time in your school class curriculum.
