The HIVE debating continued this week with a rousing game of “Take a Stand.” Students were presented with a topic statement and had to think about whether they strongly agreed or disagreed or somewhat agreed or disagreed and why. They then had to move their sticky note to the correct column on the virtual whiteboard. Students rotated through a speaker list to share their reasons, back up their choices, and offer rebuttals. The students also gave some great feedback from last week’s debate. Here are some samples:

Debating is our AcadeCap monthly focus for January. The online tele-learning format did not stop the HIVE students from participating in an engaging first debate. Everyone had some great persuasive arguments and rebuttals. Students are looking forward to the second debate. The high school students did a wonderful job of planning, creating outreach materials, and developing the debate formats. They will each be taking a turn to facilitate a debate. Here are some of the advertising posters designed by the students. |
