26.  The point of this debates is to get you to practice your critical thinking skills  Each debate will involve 2 teams of students (1’s are for Free Trade and 2’s are for Fair Trade)

27.  Even though you are given a trade which you might not agree with, you must use your critical thinking skills to come up with an argument anyway  Talk to your group (people with the same number) and use your article to finish your chart  You will have time to share your own opinion later in the class

28.  At first, all the 1’s will talk about their trade (Free Trade) and all the 2’s will talk about their trade (Fair Trade)  This will allow each side to come up with an argument which they will present to the other members of the group  You will have time to each take turns stating your case, and why your trade is better
