Get your students thinking critically and creatively with our debate topics! This fun and interactive online card deck game helps young learners practise their speaking, critical thinking, and reasoning skills.
How to Play:
Select the topic: Choose a debate topic and decide on your debate teams.
Choose a side: Each player or team selects a side to argue for (e.g., for or against the topic).
Prepare for the debate: Allow the teams time to prepare their arguments, either in different areas of the classroom or in breakout rooms online.
Present the arguments: Players take turns presenting their arguments. Encourage students to elaborate on their opinions, support their statements with reasons, and listen to opposing views.
End the Debate: Once everyone has presented their arguments, have a group discussion on the topic and come to a conclusion, or vote on the strongest argument.
Use this game to boost your students’ confidence in speaking and promote lively, thoughtful discussions in your lessons!
