Today, students did some more practice with direct/indirect objects. Then, we reviewed the debate structure that we watched in the "Sweatdogs" clip from yesterday: affirmative opening, negative opening, affirmative rebuttal, negative rebuttal, affirmative closing, negative closing. Students broke off into their debate groups and decided on group jobs and then began to make a list of reasons to support their argument. Miss Devine then presented groups with more research to support their reasons and groups extended their lists. Tomorrow, we will look at opposing facts in order to develop the rebuttal arguments and groups will practice their debate presentation. Debates will take place on Friday.
Homework: Complete the rest of the direct/indirect objects grammar packet. There will be a mini-quiz over this material on Friday
