This class will teach students how to engage in a debate like forum. Students will be asked to present their case on who they feel is the greatest at the specified position. Students will be asked to not only give opinion, but give reasoning as to why they feel the player they chose is the greatest at that position. The topics that will be covered in this class are the greatest of all time NBA players. The class will be structured in a way that gives each student time to give their opinion as well as supporting their argument with stats if the students desires. My teaching will be to just moderate the conversation. I will be there to make sure each students feels heard and accepted with their opinions. I will also make sure that students are able to listen to other students in a respectful way that allows everyone to feel heard and respected in their opinions. I will be engaged on all topics in our lessons and give questions during the discussion that increases thought provoking conversation throughout the lesson.
