What Makes a Good Introduction Barb Mikulski made a great intro.

Good and Bad Intros Good illustrated by Barb Mikulski’s speech. A quote. Anecdote. Interesting facts. Maybe even a Rhetorical question. Bad Just reading it. Not smiling. Not having an attention getter. illustrated by Barb Mikulski’s speech.

Who is Barb Mikulski? The Senator of Maryland. A democrat. She was born July 20,1936.

The Occasion Her speech was given at the 2008 Democratic National Convention. It was made on August 26, 2008 at 5:00pm.

Her Introduction I'm senator Barb Mikulski from the great state of Maryland. The Democratic women of the Senate are a force for women, a force for families, and a force for change. We’re proud to introduce you to our checklist for change. You know how we women are. We make our to-do lists. We check off our accomplishments. We get things done. And that’s exactly what we Democrats are going to do when we take back the white house.

How this was an effective intro It grabbed my attention which is what an introduction is suppose to do. It was written in an organized way.
