Try and throw in a video or something. Also, get the class involved in some way since it makes time go by much faster and you will keep their attention. I had to do 2-3 of these in my "AP Speech" class and it's not really that bad at all.

You should join up with Toast masters. They are clubs all around the world, which will work on public speaking. They got people their to help people to overcome their weak points in speaking. I wanted to go, because I suck at giving a speaking about something I have no interest in. http://www.toastmasters.org/

Well, for starters don't call it the "south precivil war" when you do your speech. Call it the Antebellum South.

Yeah don't try to speak like a fucking politician. Speak in your own terms that are innate in you. Speak the way that makes you feel comfortable.

You need to keep their attention by throwing them videos and food. That's how it works.
