Debate

In class we had to debate on our topic which is lowering the drinking age. We had to throw coin to choice whoever will get cons or pros. We picked Ella for the coin and they picked Evan for the coin. Evan called it tail and we called it head. Evan won. They discuss with eachother to pick the best one for them. They picked cons. They looked so prepared like us. I was actually nervous that they would win. After awhile when everyone was done with their stuff we had to go first as a team. Hanna had to go up and talk about her debate on the topic. She had a lot of evidence and proof which actually help us to start very good on our debate. It took her 2 minutes to finish her arguement which was good for our team. Now it was other sides turn to come up and debate on our topic. They started very good and prepared but it was really short compare to ours. The. We had to represent our rebuttals to go against each other by proving some evidence. Our member Ella started so good and prepared but there was a problem. It was me, I thought that she was doing that for 2 minutes. Last one confused my mind. I forgot to tell her how much time left. I felt really sorry for my team mate. That would've affect us to lose the debate. I was sad because of the thing that I have done. Then it was other side's turn to share their rebuttla. They started good but then they confused about what we said because they started to agree on our side. When they were done, I promised myself that I will do it this time perfectly instead of forgetting it. David came up and started to talk about his rebuttla. He had a lot of evidence which helped us to spread the topic little bit more. He looked prepared for the topic but I think he was nervous that is why he had to stop sometimes and breathe. It took him 54 seconds to finish his debate. We were doing so good so far because we talked about almost all the evidence we got. Then it was their turn. Their team member started good but then he forget what he was talking about and started to fight with our team mate. It affected their team to look bad on our side. It was time for the closing statement. Our team member Adler came up and started to talk about all the debate evidences and researches. He did so good on it which helped us to finish our debate strong. Then it was other team turn. Evan came up and started to talk about his side but he used his iPad more which he should not do. It affect them to communicate with our team because I believe that eye contact is really important for the topic. In addition, I believe that our team did little bit better than other team because we looked more prepared and we had a lot of evidence which help us to win the debate. Other team did great too because we have to congratulate them too because it is not that easy to get up there and talk about it.
