| Most teachers integrate some kind of debate and public speaking
into their classrooms, no matter what subject they teach. Most
teachers would like to do more of this integration, and many
are in the process of forming and advising debate clubs for
discussion and debating competitions. The purpose of the resource
section of this website is to provide standards-based, classroom-tested
resources for teachers and students in the middle grades. As
new resources become available, they will be listed in this section of our website. Handouts, graphic organizers, and other materials can be found in our Curriculum Center. |
