DEBATING IN OUR SCHOOL
DEBATING-3
We read CRIME AND PUNISMENT by
Dostoyevsky. After reading we discussed about the
plot, characters and setting in literature lesson. So we
put forward different ideas and decided on debating
about topic "People tend to commit crime from their
birth they cannot change according to the
circumtances ".
Two opponent groups presented and defended
their ideas to persusade the juries. Finally the juries
were convinced with the idea "People tend to commit
crime from their birth".
The students were awarded by the school
management.

DEBATING- 2
After reading, LES MİSERABLES, we gathered in the school
library to discuss the characters, plot and the settings in the
novel. Our parents and we put forward different ideas and we
talked about the message the writer tried to give the readers.
So, one week later we gathered for the debating activity to
discuss the topic "People tend to be convict from the birth or
they can change if they are given a chance" Our families,
friends, and teachers came to watch us. Our Literature and
English teacher taught us about the criterias of debating. We
gathered a lot of information and statistics about the topic
within a week to defend our ideas and give a persuasive
speech to the juries and the audience.
DEBATING-1
9th Grades were inspired with
the novel “The Lord of The Flies” and
they put forward different ideas.So we
organised a debating activity between
9th grades with the topic “Does
Physical Apearance make people
valuable”
This activity really helped me to improve my idea and to gain
experience and self-confidence. Before this activity, I hardly
speak in front of people, but now I feel I mustn't be too shy
while talking to the people. So debating is one of the few
activities that builds self-confidence. Also it develops the
capacity of critical-thinking. To me, debate is an opportunity
for objective analysis to develop new ideas.
