for our demonstration speeches in high school, i brought in my saxophone (and a few i borrowed from the school for the demonstration) and showed them first how to play it (sort of), and then the difference in the different voices, and also some of the styles of the music saxophones are used in.

a friend of mine demonstrated “how to get ready for school” and had a TON of props…shower curtain, cereal, sleeping bag, the works. it was fun to watch, and definitely something to remember.

as for the informative speech, talk about something that you’re interested in, or kind of curious about yourself. that way, when you are doing the research for it, you’re learning stuff that you care about. my informative speech was on body art (tattoos, piercings, etc). i actually learned quite a bit about it.

hope this helps!
