Today we learned about debate listing details from each point of view to see what perspective side you should chose we started off by taking notes from website on google classroom. we made a paragraph that was like A piece of information can be different in a way depending on the source because most people will gust make a concoction by only hearing one person's point of view. It is good to get your resources off of arguments, videos, and articles,etc for the debate practice starting your clam with reasons  and lots of evidence so you will know who's side you should really be on.
