Today we are learning the different terms in debating, we are doing this because on the last week of term we are doing an election as a part of our social studies.
Debating- It is when people argue about something but in a formal way.
Pro vs con- The pro stands for the proposition and the con is opposition. The pro is also for "for" and the con is for "against".
Proposition- Proposition can either be true or false, it is a statement that provides support or evidence.
Opposition- They are on the other side of the proposition, They express their beliefs and they could disagree with the opponent.
Order of Debate- It is pretty self-explanatory because what it means is the sequence of how the debate goes.

To support my learning I ask you to comment as follows:
1. Something positive - something you like about what I have shared.
2. Thoughtful - A sentence to let us know you actually read/watched or listened to what I had to say
3. Something thoughtful - how have you connected with my learning? Give me some ideas for next time or ask me a question.
