English I Honors students recently participated in a debate activity. Students were divided into groups and given magazine articles on various topics regarding the American educational systems. Topics including reading for pleasure, using meditation instead of suspensions for discipline, and taking notes on paper versus computers. After analyzing the articles for bias students were assigned to agree or disagree with the topic and each group choose a representative for a class debate. Group representatives did a great topic arguing for their side of the issue. The students are now ready to take their analyzing and arguing skills into the research paper unit.
