  • Focus: Opinion Pieces, Debate Scripts & Persuasive Reasoning

    Students practice writing persuasive pieces and translating them into oral presentations. They learn to revise their arguments for clarity, logic, and impact, including anticipating and responding to counterarguments.

  • Focus: Team Debates, Public Speaking & Performance


    Students work in teams to research, strategize, and deliver full debates on engaging topics. The term concludes with Family Debate Night, where students showcase their skills in front of an audience, demonstrating teamwork, structured argumentation, and confidence under pressure.
