This weekend...Big Prep for debate!!

This weekend you are responsible for thinking about your particular role in the upcoming IRA debate.

For openers/closers, your job is to begin outlining your argument for why your group's position is right AND why the other side's argument is flawed. You should start writing out your argument, using the notes you've taken so far AND pg 16 in the packet.

For Q/A's, your job is to begin writing out questions and answers for the groups you have been assigned. Definitely think about word choice, language, and whether you are asking the questions to your FRIENDS or FOES. I expect you will create at least 8 Questions and Answers. You might also want to review pg. 16 for some guidance.

Also, there is a link to other supplemental materials that might help your group. This is completely optional, but if you are interested in finding out more info on treaties, for example, and/or other documents that might be useful, check it out!  There is information about all groups, so this might be an opportunity to see the other side's arguments.
