Lesson 1 Plan
Topic:
This house supports a mandatory Coronavirus vaccination policy
Explanation:
Companies and countries around the globe have been racing the clock, and each other, in order to be the first to develop and distribute a successful Coronavirus vaccine to aid the world in returning back to normal. Just a couple days ago, the UK announced that they would be rolling out the first round of vaccines in a matter of weeks. The US has said that they are not far behind. Other countries, such as Canada, are taking a more cautious approach, as none of the vaccines have been found to be above 95% (which is very high) effective. Beyond this, some vaccine sceptics are wary of the vaccine and its potential side effects, whilst other ‘anti-vaxxers’ are against a vaccine entirely! Should governments around the world implement a mandatory vaccination policy? Should children be allowed to return to school unvaccinated? What about travel? Is this a justified global health policy, or abuse of government power?

Preparation for Lesson 10:
Hi everyone! I’m looking forward to our final class – and seeing as it’s the last one, we’re going to do things a bit differently. As you already know, we’re going to have a more formal (‘sides’) debate next class. However, we’re going to make it even more like a ‘real’ competitive debate by preparing for the motion in real-time! So, read some of the below articles (and watch the videos) to prepare for class, take notes, and brainstorm what possible topics of debate they could be relevant to. I’ll be releasing the motion at the start of class, and you’ll have 10 mins to prepare your points with your team. The more material you have, and arguments you come up with based on the reading, the better prepared you’ll be for the motion. At the end of class, we’ll be playing Pictionary! In order for you to participate fully, a good grasp of background context, examples, and arguments will be helpful – so please do the reading!
Thank you for being such a wonderful class, and I hope to see some of you again soon 🙂
TIP: Don’t automatically read/watch the first 5 links. Have a click through the links to see which ones are the most interesting to you (your favourite could end up being near the end of the list)!
