One more day until the Room 3 and 24 Emmy Awards!!  I hope you've had a think about a dramatic acceptance speech, just in case...

Introduction to debating

Persuasive writing

Today we started to explore reasons for and against the proposed five star luxury hotel being built in Dunedin. We came up with a list of reasons to support the development and a list of reasons why you could be against the development.  Your task tonight is to discuss the idea of the new hotel at home.  Tomorrow you will have a clear view point and three good reasons to support it after speaking to your family about the issue.
(I have included the internet sites we collected our information from below.  There is also a lot of information in the O.D.T - there was a cartoon on the issue in today's paper also.)

Sites we looked at and discussed today for you to review:
