Hello there,
So we meet again debators. Now that you all have had a taste of defending a point/perspective in a debate-like activity, let's take our skills to the next level. Today we are going to do a debate preparation activity called ARGUING BOTH SIDES. As you enter the room and read this blog post please grab a piece of blank paper and fold it right down the middle from top to bottom. Across the top please write "Why Cell Phones Should Be banned in School". Label the left column "Reasons" and the right-hand column "Examples".
When you have this set up you are ready for circle. Please check out the learning targets for the day and figure out how you might want to go about hitting them.
READING: I can evaluate the argument and specific claims in a text; assess the reasoning and evidence for relevancy.
WRITING: I can write arguments to support claims with clear reasons and relevant evidence.
Yours Truly,
C
