Lesson Plan #2

Lesson Plan #2: Debate
Prepared by: Sean O'Connor and Mike Bermejo

Goal
To create a fun but prosperous learning environment by having an educated debate in the classroom. This will reinforce topics learned in One Hundred Years of Solitude while teaching group lecturing skills and debate skills.

Objectives
-Description of assignment, classroom rules
-At this point, we will bring up certain topics from the book that are controversial and ask students for their viewpoints.
-Naturally, a debate should ensue with students who have a different thought on the topic.
-This is when myself and Mike will take an opposing side in the debate in order to add a little fuel to it.
-Judging from the characters in the class, we are sure that the debate will definitely be lively. However, we will take close measures to make sure that things do not get out of hand.
-If needed, disciplinary measures can and will be taken.
