DEBATES CAMP
Our DearChildren members can practice their debate skills in this activity in the forms of both persuasive and presidential debate. They will form arguments for the side they are representing, and present those arguments against an opponent. This activity is a great way for students to learn more about presenting to other people and to feel more comfortable and confident in speaking in front of an audience. Public speaking is an important aspect in high school and college, and this activity will allow students to get a head start in the area of public speaking. It might also raise their interest in debate and motivate them to pursue debate in school.
