Select the Persuasive Speech Worksheet by Pattern of Organization: As you know, you will select one of the patterns of organization detailed in this module that best fits your material. Select and complete the worksheet titled the same as the pattern of organization you plan to use so you have the proper template to use. While this is considered a draft, it should be your best attempt at writing this speech. The more work you put into your speech draft, the more feedback your peers and me can provide to help you finalize your speech in preparation for recording it. Like the informative speech worksheet you completed, you will use your feedback to make changes to your speech draft and you will submit an updated version next week – it will be the 2nd draft.

2nd Draft (next week): Like the last speech, you will be expected to make revisions to your 1st draft and submit a 2nd draft of this worksheet/outline next week. However, if you do really well on this week's worksheet and you need minimal or no revisions, I will excuse you from submitting a 2nd draft of your worksheet/outline next week. So, rather than having to make updates and edits and submit an assignment next week, you would have the week off from submitting an assignment and have an additional week to refine your speech and practice it. If you have done well enough on this speech worksheet/outline draft, I will notify you by leaving a comment on this assignment and let you know you are excused from submitting anything next week. If you are excused from submitting a 2nd draft next week, the grade column for next week's assignment (assignment #10) will remain blank (represented with a dash). This will not impact your grade in any way.

Below are your worksheet options. Select the worksheet titled after the pattern of organization you intend to outline your speech.
