Taranaki Debating Competition 2015 By Miss O'B

Writing Debates for Taranaki Debating Competition 

In Term 2 Room 5 has the Taranaki Debating Competition. We have two teams in it this year. One Year 7 (Emma, Rhys, Maz and Jazmine) with the the moot 'That the moon should be colonised' we are against the moot in this argument. One Year 8 team (Molly, Xavier, Charlotte and Julia) in it this year with the moot 'That the internet should be banned in schools' we are also against the argument in this debate.
 Here are some photos of our collaborative online research we are doing to complete our debates. We are using Google Drive to share our work with each other and so it is accessible at home and at school. Through this system we can also give each other feedback at the touch of a button.
 Watch this space for our results. Go Toko!
