Step 1

• Gather in small groups and take turns presenting your arguments and identifying your audiences.
• Try starting like this: “My opinion is that for students to be healthier, we should ask _____(your audience)_____ to ________________________________________________________.”
• Explain what evidence you have or need to research in order to support your opinion.

STEP 2

• The next step is to get feedback. Ask your group members:
  • Do you agree or disagree with my argument/claim?
  • What questions or feedback do you have?
  • Have I presented enough evidence?
  • Do you have any other suggestions?
• Repeat this process until all students have presented and received feedback from the group.
• Take notes on each argument you hear. Mark which ones you find persuasive, and why.
