Space for Debate Challenges: Debate like a Revolutionary!
On October 30 you will be participating in a debate in this class. Before this you and a partner will be writing a speech.
You will not get to choose the side you are on, but you will have to make an argument based on evidence. Debating is a
skill – so during the film we will have three “Super Debate Challenges” for you to participate in in order to hone your
debating skills. You can do the writing for the “Super Debate Challenges” below and on the back of this paper.
