Tuesday 5/10 ~ Practice Debate

CLASS DEBATE ~ We will practice our debate structure and FLOW notes using one of the topics below. Let's choose one and take five minutes to form your "opening speeches" with your team. Organize them by THEMESS please!

EQ: Did your FLOW catch their dropped arguments? 

• Should women be allowed in combat?
• Should animal testing be banned?
• Should Monte Vista stop having a dress code?
• Should it be illegal for kids under the age of 5 to play video games?
• Should violent video games be banned?
• Is Twitter really better than Instagram? (or Facebook, etc...)
• Do school uniforms help the learning environment? 
• Should cigarettes really be illegal for adults under 21? 

*Check for understanding: Did the team continue to address each of the main THEMESS throughout the debate? How did you do with your flow notes?


HW: Make sure you are ready for your real debate. Notice that Due Dates have been posted here and in the side bar.
