A Demonstrative Speech is one in which you will demonstrate to your audience how to do something. It is easiest to decide on a topic if you start with a verb, such as: How to Do something. How to Make something. How to Fix something.
What is a demonstrative speech example?
Demonstrative or 'How-To' topics can be very wide but not all of them fit into a speech. For example, a speech on 'How to raise a Kickstarter campaign' would be a better fit for a speech as opposed to 'How to repair your truck'. Some things just don't fit into speeches.
