Hmm....
First I am wondering if this is for a school project (( Public Speaking? ))
I remember when I was in school and I had to do the same kind of thing, my speach was on why it is "unfair to force introverted school age youth to speak infront of their peers"
The goal was to be very humourous while also giving facts and figures on the percentage of "shy" youths per age group, and the "unmentionable evils" forced upon them by requiring them to stand in front of their peers for 5 minutes and stammer through a boring and poorly presented oratory. ((It can lead to ridicule if one should faint or be sick, have a boring topic, or even lead to ulcers in those who truely fear public speaking))
It is my firm belief that humour is the best medicine when standing in front of a large group... and if you are clever enough, maybe you won't have to do it next year.
Just my thoughts.
