  1. Planning, Practicing, Performing Learning objective: To be able to plan, practice and perform a debate. Keywords: Plan, practice, perform

  2. Recapping last lesson: • What is debating? • What makes a good debater? • What is a motion? • How do we create a good motion? • What do proposers do? • What do opposers do?

  3. What are we doing today? • Today, you will work in fours to debate a motion. • Two will be proposers, two will be opposers. • You will each have two minutes to make your argument. • You will be planning, practicing and performing your debates.

  4. Changing sides: • In this game you have to be able to argue two different points of view – at the same time! • You will be given a motion and you have to think of an proposing statement. • You will then have to think of an opposing statement.

  5. Changing sides: • The motion: • Celebrities do not deserve their high salaries. • Write down one argument you could make to PROPOSE this statement.

  6. Changing sides: • Next we are going to try speaking our arguments. • Each person will be asked for a proposing and opposing statement, so make sure you’re ready! • Your motion is…

  7. Changing sides: • The motion: • The hours in the school day should be lengthened. • Write down one argument you could make to PROPOSE this statement.

  8. The motion: PE SHOULD BE ELIMINATED FROM THE CURRICULUM.

  9. Start by working in pairs. • You will start by working with your partner to think about your argument. • What are your opinions? (They must support your part of the debate.) • What evidence can you use? • Bullet point the main parts of your speech. • Think of a variety of different points.

  10. Some ideas to get you thinking: 20% of children are overweight – does something need to be done? What matters most – enjoyment or results? What skills do you need for the outside world? Should all lessons be about sitting down and writing? Are academic achievements the only ones that matter? Is creativity important? What do you learn on a sports pitch?

  11. Now work as a four. • Follow the debating rules; take it in turns. • Put forward your arguments. • Be confident! Believe you are right! • Practice this debate together a few times.

  12. Let’s hear them! • As we watch these debates, remember that the audience must be silent and not interfere – it is against debating rules.

  13. To finish off: • What did you do well today? • Write down three things. • What would you like to do better with? • Write down one thing.
