2. Preparing to Debate - Today you will be gathering with other students who have chosen the same option as you, to prepare as a group for the debate next class. Each group needs to following:
A. You need to present the viewpoints of your option on the economy, international security, international relations, health and environment, and culture/values. Use your "Options" handout and graphic organizer. Assign a member of your group to become an expert on each of those issues. The expert should write a paragraph that will be read to the class during the debate.
B. You need an Opening Statement that introduces the class to your option. You should also provide an attack against each of the other options. Use the "Options" handout, but be sure to write it in your own words. It should 30 seconds to one minute when read aloud (approx. 1/2-1 page typed).
C. You need two examples from the past when the US took an action that matches with the goals of your option. This will be used as evidence that your option has been successful in the past. You need to write a paragraph that summarizes the event, and explains how/why it supports the views of your option.
