My Project

Next school year, our debaters will be learning and arguing about US policy in the Arctic. To start the year, we will use the movable white board to brainstorm out our affirmative and negative cases. Debate is an activity that requires a lot of writing and rewriting! Having a high-quality, movable white board will allow us to brainstorm and map out our arguments. The map will allow students to visualize the Arctic and understand the geopolitics of the region.

Debaters are special because of their confidence and tenacity.

In order to take our skills to the next level, we have to build student's content knowledge of the debate topic.
