Arguments

We are working towards creating well-crafted, logical, written arguments.
In class we can practise on different topics. Here is a list of topics we will cover so you can start thinking about them and preparing your points to back up your position...

Should New Zealand develop nuclear power stations?

Which is better for Kiwi teens? Co-ed or single sex schools?

We should all be vegetarians.

Uniforms should be banned.

NZ should reintroduce "carless days."

We should re-introduce corporal punishment at schools.

Holiday Homework

It has been a very busy Term One. Some of you have managed your workload brilliantly and completed all your assignments [apart from the art one which fizzled, but which we will complete in term Two].
For those of you who struck technical difficulties or simply didn't manage your time well enough, please be sure to include these things on your blog over the holidays:

a) Interesting posts with information images and references [url's] to where you found the info.

b) Traits of a quality learner - write in you own words some of the traits of a quality learner and list references. Include an image.

c) Optional - with a self portrait you have drawn, painted, etc., scan and post it.
