I am giving a speech on stage fright/speech anxiety. I have to do a class exercise, any ideas???

I have to have a 5-7 minute class activity after my speech and presentation. It has to do something with stage fright/speech anxiety. I was thinking to do something like HEAVEN..and they would have to describe them selves with each letter of the word. Then they would have to publically tell every one about them selves. Please help with anyother ideas PLEASE!!!

I would try to show that stage fright is (typically) increased when the speaker is talking about something unfamiliar or formal, and decreases when speaking about something familiar and casual.

You might also want to show that (typically) it is easier to speak when you are not forced to look at the people you are speaking to. This is an age-old trick of public speaking, to look just over the audience’s heads while speaking.

There is also a trick that is taught, to try and imagine your audience in their underwear. But, you probably won’t get much cooperation!

Good luck!

Hope this helps!
