Here are some topics for you. Choose for or against, and argue your point....
1) Should horses be ridden?
2) Should dogs be killed for their fur coats?
3) Should kids be paid to go to school?
4) Should you be allowed to go barefoot in public?
5) If you find 100 dollars, is it yours to keep?
6) If a kid does a crime, should the parents do the crime?
7) Should aimals be used to test new products?
8) Should cellphones be allowed in class?
9) Should boxing be banned?
10) Do police belong in schools?
11) Should the government rate music?
12) Should teen criminals be locked up in adult prisons?
13) In disasters such as the Titanic, who should be saved first? (eg. women, kids, pensioners, rich, poor, blacks)
14) Should gunmakers pay the cost of gunviolence?
15) Should beaches have rules?
16) Should people lose their jobs if it helps the environment? (This is an OUTSTANDING topic! so much to do with it!)
17) Should schools have dress codes?
18) If you find a historic treasure, does it belong to you?
19) Should girls have their own schools?
20) Should schools have dress codes?

These are good because they are interesting topics, and you can go into them in as much detail as neccesary, or keep it pretty simple. I hope this helps, and if it does, i wouldn't mind ten points for a best answer! Hehe, no pressure! :)

Answer 3

There are a lot of topics to choose from. I just had this assignment in a college level course. You didn't specify that there were limitations, but steer clear of controversial topics such as gay marriage, death penalty, or abortion. The best in my class was over organ donation. There are a lot of resources available, and you could do a survey of some classmates or other students to see who is listed as a donor as a source. Good luck!

Answer 4

Dress codes in school
The case for organ donation
The need for recycling
Why the death penalty should be abolished
The need for gun control
The dangers of taking illegal steroids
How to pay off your credit card
Avoiding drinking or drunk driving
Why we should abolish school uniform
Global Warming - What we can do about it
Why we should wear seat belts in cars
Why you should become a blood donor
The dangers of gambling
Gay marriage
Euthanasia
Avoiding junk food

Answer 5

Depends on what you are interested in. I've done speeches on vegetarianism being a healthier choice, Why you shouldn't go to the zoo, why the FCC's rules are too strict in talk radio

Answer 6

either the NEED or LACK OF NEED for "Persuasive Speeches". Either convince them that such speeches are necessary, or not !!

Answer 7

I have to do the same thing!!
Only we didnt get to chose our topics.
Mine is on, Do police belong in schools?, I dont like it much because there's no information on it.
Mine's due dec. 1st and i think im pretty much doomed.

well, good luck with yours though.

Answer 8

Good luck on your speech and Happy Thanksgiving!!!
