This lesson is about debating. Students will learn debating is simply a discussion in which participants articulate, justify, and clarify their positions on a particular issue. Students will learn there is a polite and proper way to debate, and learn to accept a difference of opinion among peers. The topic of this debate will be focused on endangered animals throughout the world. Students will be discussing these endangered animals, how and why these animals became endangered, and forming an opinion. Animals to be discussed will be gorillas, sea turtles, tigers and rhinos.

Teacher expertise and credentials
For the past decade, I am proud to have worked as a New Jersey public school teacher. I am not only able to observe the academic growth of students but also assist them in becoming problem solvers, independent thinkers, and goal setters. I feel confident that I will be able to transfer these acquired skills to the students of Outschool. Through hard work and dedication, accomplishments are attainable, and I look forward to sharing that mindset with all students. I obtained my Master of Education from Centenary University. I am well versed in both the Common Core and New Jersey Student Learning Standards. I have taught all subject areas in both fourth and fifth grades, and currently teach second grade. Reviews
