Le débat des 8e année

The division wide French immersion debate will take place March 12th, 2012.  Grade 7 & 8 French immersion students from Charleswood will be travelling to Ecole Viscount Alexander to debate against a team from either Van Wallegham or Viscount Alexander.  Grade 8's will be participating, while grade 7's will be in our audience.  More information about this field trip will be sent home closer to the date.  In the meantime, students are preparing and learning how to formulate arguments.  Here is a sample of the format that we have been working on...

L'argument - (Déclaration, raisonnement, preuves)
Je pense que la majorité des adolescentes son responsable, et ils meritient la liberté. Si un adolescente ne respecte pas son liberté, ils doivent facé les consequenes et appris des lecons. Les adolescents apprend de leurs fautes, et ils devient des meilleures personnes. Si ils abuse leurs libertés, ils sais de ne pas faire ce faute encore.

Réfutation - (Tu as dit, mais je pense, parce que, alors)
Tu as dit que les ados vont apprendre de leurs comme "mistakes" mais je pense que pas tout le monde vas apprendre, quelque personnes vont refaire et refaire parce que il y a des personnes qui sont pas vraiment intelligent. Alors dans mon opinion tu es incorrect.

*Merci pour les beaux exemples Sam H. et Rileigh

Electronic Devices

Students can use electronic devices, such as Ipod touch and Ipad, in class.  These will be used for educational purposes.  Wordreference.com has a great translation app that students have started to use.  Devices are to remain in their lockers when not in use.  At school use is limited to the classroom, and only if the teacher has given permission.  Phones with internet capabilities are not permitted for classroom use.
Please email me (sisaac@pembinatrails.ca) if you have any questions.
