In this activity, you will use thesis statements as starting points to generate questions from which you can derive the main points for speeches.

Perform the following tasks:

Step 1: Review the information presented in the lesson that discusses using a thesis statement to determine the main points to include in a speech.
A well-constructed thesis statement raises a question in the mind of the audience. To generate the main points to include in your speech, identify the question and the potential answers.

Enter the thesis statement, question, and main points into your word processing document using the format in the example shown here.

Example:
Thesis Statement: The government should (or shouldn’t) provide health insurance coverage to all citizens.

Question: Why should the government provide health insurance coverage to all citizens?
Main Points:Health care is prohibitively expensive for citizens without health insurance.
The first question you are asked when you call most doctors’ offices in the United States is, “What type of insurance do you have?”
People without health insurance may be unable to get the health care they need.
