IMPORTANT When viewing this slideshow the top slides are the most recent – the work we are currently doing. The slides at the bottom are work or activities we completed in the past.
These are some comments we looked at after our own debate regarding the wearing of School Uniform.
Students explore the issue of school uniforms, developing arguments around it from different points of view. Discussion: School Uniforms People have different opinions about whether or not school uniforms are a good idea. You need to decide whether you agree or disagree with wearing a school uniform. You must not ‘sit on the fence’. List all your ideas and/or reasons why you have decided for or against school uniform. Lets share our ideas…. A debate! “Yippee” said Kathleen
COME ON OVER Sometimes we want to talk someone into thinking about things the same way we think about them. For example, you might try to persuade your parents to let you stay up late to watch a movie on TV. When we are trying to persuade someone we have to think of some good reasons for them to agree. You are going to pretend that you want to have a friend come over to your place after school. You have to try and convince your parents that it would be a good idea. You will need to try to think of some really good reasons for having your friend come to your house. Try to think of things your parents might not like about having your friend over and what you could say to them about those things. You can have a few moments to think about what you might say to your parents and how you might say it. Then you can imagine that I am your parent and tell me what you would say. Allow time. Now imagine that I am your parent. Try to persuade me with your good reasons, and remember that I might not want to have your friend come over after school. Room 8 Students – Roll played this scene in pairs. One was the child (the persuader). The other took the roll of the parent (to be convinced). Introduction Middle/paragraphs Conclusion GENERAL FEEDBACK: Was that only 4-5 children could convince their parent to have a friend over. Overall, the children from Room 8 enjoyed the activity because it gave them an opportunity to ‘think’ before going to ask parents for something. THINK: Pros and Cons of the event.
