The goal to be able to co-operate and express their opinions in groups.
I shortened the activity to fit into one class period.
Make groups of 5 or 6 students and give each group one topic.
Divide them into “for” or “against” sides. Make sure they are evenly spread so all topics are covered.
Students have to write four supporting statements as a group, then they each memorize their chosen statement.
They present the statements in “for” and “against” groups and others evaluate their presentations.
ALT judges their speaking and contents, giving constructive feedback on each presentation.
The OTE gives the most persuasive side a point or a sticker.
