Wow. No, I don't see the bottom of your mouth, Daniel. No one wants to see the bottom. No one. No. With three, I don't want to see your mouth. And welcome, welcome, welcome. Hello, both of you. So lovely to have you here. I'm teacher Lisa. It's so nice to have you with me. And three b, can you tell me what do you like to do? If you're not in school and you've got to do whatever you like for the day, what do you like doing? I will watch tv for a little while, then I want to go.

I'll will, I'll, I'll, I'll work on my lego all day. You you like to let lego? What kind of legdo you mean? Show us, please, Daniel, show us it was off or off up to this magical room of the lego. Yeah well that means for for lego he's he's frozen though. He's taking himself to a non WiFi place. Oh no. Okay, he's put back up there again. Okay, my mom's taking it out. Oh bless her. Sorry for thank you. One more and one like one, two. Wow, that is so cool. Look at another look at that. We're going we're going around the thing. Oh my goodness, look at this that is so cool. I they call her Yeah, Yeah, Yeah and this one too. Your poor mother's like your poor mother's bringing out all your lego bless her. She thought debating what's the lego? Oh, I love these. That is so cool. Okay, right. Wow, you two are very interesting. I am so interested in what you're able to do, right? Shall we have a little look now? Daniel and three, have you debated before? Yes, in our old class, in your old class class. And what kind of things did you debate in your old class? No, I'm who's smartest. So. Say, three and Daniel. Three and Daniel, you two have debated against each other before as well. So you've had classes together before. Are you two friends, do you know, into the. Oh, even better. So there's rivalry here to be able to make the best debates. Oh, so excited for what this class is going to bring. So three, tell us what is a debate? I like you so big big sweet riand the other person says something is wrong and then you say say that you are the opinions that why you should be right and then whoever whoever ever whoever said steps to the thing is wrong. Yeah. Why am I so big? It's so big. Okay? I'm are now very big, Daniel, okay, well done. So exactly that. Two opposing sides with her opinion. And in this class, what I want you to do is I want you to build your speaking time. I want you to build your research, okay? So I want you to use things like search engines. I want you to use your mobile phones. I want you to ask people, maybe in your house for opinions, okay? To build your case, you will debate on both sides. Sometimes you won't agree with the motion. That's okay. But we're going to learn how to debate on both sides. You never know what team you can end up on. Okay? So if you guys have already debated, we're not going to watch this video because we're going to watch a different one because I'm going to take this one away because we don't need this one because you guys already know what you're doing. So that's great. We can just get straight into it, okay? The best. Okay, so Daniel Daniel, you just said that cats are the best. Why do you think cats are the best? Because they're cute. And when they map, you know it sounds so cute. And and if you have mice, they can catch the mice for you and you don't need the whatever machine that gets rid of mice. Okay? All right. Oh my. You don't need to traand also you don't have to take the cats outside for a walk. It just if, if if you let it, it can just sit on this on the sofa all day. I, to be fair, Hey, naconwhat about you three, do you think cats are the best? Or do you think dogs. Not ughters or cat I think. Lizards are the best. Lizards are the best. And why do you think lizards are the best? Sure. This is a cool. This is a cool. Okay. Well, I disained no, I wanted to three sides too, because I also think ful. Oh, you also think lisers are the best, okay? But if I had three, if I had dogs or cats, are you picking a dog or are you picking a cat? Both both you can't have both three. Go to pick one. Cats, you're also going to be on the caat team. Okay. So you're with Daniel, you're on cats. And why do you think also cats then. Because cats are cute and also we have A, I also have a cat in the basement. That's pretty funny. A basement cat. Oh, well, I disagree with both of you. Yeah, I think dogs are the best. They're playful, they get out of the house, they're able to give us affection. Yeah. They are always happy to see you. Cats are so independent tly. Why? Why they done for three? Why? Because it's roboand. It ended up under their face and you just go like, what's the ball? What? Okay, three cats. Cats are rude. They they don't always give you affection. They sometimes ignore you. They sometimes go missing for days. Cats can be really rude. I think dogs are much more lovable. Dogs are disgusting. No, there's no such thing as ruand appples. There's nothing each. Other is buomb. Oh no, they do do that. They do it. And Daniel, what were you saying this? The animals can't be rude in the animal kingdom. Why do you think that? Yeah, Yeah because Yeah because there's no ruin the animal kingdom. Like they just they will they will just ignore you because. They don't really understand you I say. And even and even though dogs are good pets, they they still don't them shyou, okay, all right, so if you think train doesn't make a difference, what are you going to say? Three, there's also one thing that cats can do and dogs can't. What is that? Catch mice. Oh, okay, good good points. Okay, Daniel, they can get well done. I'm gonna give it to you. You've you've beated me. You've beated me. Yeah, well done. It was too against five. So as you know, topic, okay, two teams, someone on the affirmative, someone on the negative today, you will also have time to prepare. We will chat and then you will have time to prepare and then you will present. Yeah we're looking to get you to three minutes of speaking. It's okay if we don't today, but it would be great for us to get to three minutes, okay? So our topic could be anything affirmative yes. Negative, no. Yeah and we need to prepare. Make sure you're write it and get the unicorn. Make sure you're writing your debates out, okay? We want you to be clear and confident so you can write what you're gonna say, okay? You can use a search engine. Yeah find out things. Maybe there's an expert, maybe you have parents in the room that you could ask what they think and use that in your debate. Yeah, my mum or my dad or my grandma thinks this. And that makes your debate much stronger. Okay, presentation. Speak clearly, sensibly. And listen, I'm on my own, but I'm smarter than Daniel. Well, we're not debating that today. We're not debating that today. Dui' M1 hundred. I' M1 hundred times smarter than you. Well, dear, if age comes into it, Daniel, and three, if age comes into it, I'm the smartest. Okay, today's debate you're have even smarter to me. We going have some good debating in this class. I can say. Okay, today's debate Daniel and three, it is homework a waste of time. So let's get your first thoughts. What do you think? Three, if I gave you this meeting, you ate home with Daniel. Okay, wonderful. You. What do you think? Three. Okay. Why, why why? Three. Why is it not a waste of time for. Because when you learn it can you can learn stuff. Learn. So okay, me give me more than stuff. What kind of things could I learn if I've got homework? Chinese, math, English, science, a. Biology okay, logy and what why do you think but three, isn't there sometimes too much homework? Isn't there homework you're given that sometimes you already know the answer to why do you think it's not a waste of time? Because you sometimes, even though you know it, you can do it. You can do do lots of times to practice. You might you might know it, but you might not do it good enough. You may need to improve. Okay, this is a really good answer. I love this. Three. Read. What about you? Done? No. Do you agree with three? Do you disagree with three? No, I don't. Okay. Why do you disagree? Because sometimes they just give us too much homework like like in Chinese. They they give us writing and then they they also give us like something that we don't need to do. It's like from to next week. Yeah. See why you yes, it's okay. We're just trying at the moment. We're just trying. We can have I want us to think about all of it. I want to say, Oh, I want both of you to think about both sides. Okay? We've got to think about all of this because sometimes isn't homework needed. Daniel, if you're not sure about something and you need to practice, surely homework can help you at times. But we we could also we could also learned it in class and. And next next class we could like. Like review. Yeah Yeah review it. The the first the first thing of next class is like class work, class homework Oh, so you think maybe instead of having homework we could have an extra class or something instead Yeah what would be a good go in three classwork? Or it could also be or it could also be good if like we have homework for one day and then we skip a homework for another day and then we have homework work for one day. Okay. Okay. One note two. Yes. One note two. Yes. One note two. I like that answer. Okay. So this is what I want in our debates. Yeah, because when we're debating, we want to offer a solution. I think it's a waste of time because there are better ways to do it. Yeah. But three, it's a good idea. Daniel Scott, but that means that you don't you know, teachers have got to give it to you on a certain schedule. It also means if you have homework in class, you've got more class work to do. Do you think it's okay? Or do you think, actually, sometimes we need homework, we need people to take it home and do it at the weekend? What do you think? Three. Yeah, okay. Why why do you disagree with Daniel? Why is this plan not a good plan? Because it's the weekend and then we got four days no homework. Okay, without so three, do you think less work? Okay, three, do you think people are smarter if they do homework? Yeah okay why? And for example, some of these math problems, you don't even need to like use pens to write it down and how to do it. You can just find out those like, Yeah I'm like nolike. This one is equals 999 and the other one which changes only one number equals 9999. You could just use these to make them okay, so we can add, if you don't do homework, Yeah practice if you don't do homework, you might not you might not know this. And soon you'll waste even more time of working out how to Yeah amazing thing. I hear the same thread. Can practice no things off by heart, as we can say with no things off by heart, because you practice and practice and practice and practice, practice and practice. Daniel, then Daniel, Daniel, Daniel, Daniel. But what's the problem? If I've got too much homework, what am I missing out on? Why does homework start to feel like a waste of time? If I've got too much homework, what can I be doing? We we have too much homework maybe and we have too, too, too much homework. Like we we could, we we could like we could do one. It will be, it would be 20, twelve, twelve midnight. And and you did not even finish half homework. So it's too mor homework. You could end up tired. And then what do we all do? You forget? No, you could get bad help. We could get bad health. What do you think? Three, you agree or do you think, no, we just need to manage our time better. What do you think to me? No, okay, why do you not agree? Why do you think this is a silly, silly argument? Ben three, why do you think? No, Daniel, why are we working till midnight? We shall not work until midnight, even though if our homework is not finished, we cannot make less sleep. It's very bad to our health. We need a work life balance. And that's maybe part of homework. Yeah, maybe the homework itself isn't useful, but maybe learning when to do it, how much to do with it, what time to spend on it, maybe that's also the skill you're learning as well. But Daniel, I'd like to know if I'm doing too much homework, what am I not able to do? I've got so much homework. What if I didn't have any homework? What would I do with my time instead? And like maybe I have a really, really important, something more, even more important than learning thing to do. And if you did not even finish a homework death, it will like lead to something very bad. And and also and also, you wouldn't have time if you had like have a dog or something. And and if you need to go to the hospital and you come you come home, you come home, and it's already very late to you, you also you also Yeah, you could also you could also do Homer tuement last night. And and if in doing Homer Tumin night does not mean you control you, you don't control your time. Well, sometimes you have things that last very, very late and when you come home, you sit not even, you do not even finish your homework. You have other things to be doing yet. Maybe they're just as important that well, nice rebuttal, dwe. Very lovely. However, three, okay, I can have too much time on my hands and I could do lots of things like video games or watching tv, which may not be great for me as a student. So what else does homework teach us other than just knowledge? Three, what else do you think homework can teach us? Can make us have to don't have too much time on these video games and stuff that hurt your brains and eyes. Yes, well done. The also three, do you think it's a nice thing you can do with your parents? You bring homework home. You're not sure. You ask them. You could. You can get them involved. Do we not think that it's a great time to be spending with family doing your homework? Yes, I think it's a great opportunity for family members to be too, for the family members to work good. And now, Daniel, do you agree? Do you think it's a good time for family? Or do you think it actually takes away from spending time with family? Does you do homework? Sometimes the homework is independent and you have to be like in the in your room for like even an hour or even like like two hours or three hours. And. And you actually have less time with your family and there will be outside what you are you we have to do something, something, something and it's really important. It got exactly but if any is three got here too much. We have 1 million pieces of paragraphs to write and 2000Chinese characters so kind did to copy. It's really so much work. Okay, you know, I would say though, Daniel, I'll take brief point. You could say, come in here and ask me, come and spend three hours doing my homework with me. Could you not say that, Daniel? Or when someone saying, no, I want it a cleaning. Okay, really well done kitten. Yes, Daniel got anything out? If you've got something bad and and maybe sometimes if you do your homework too much, it will also huryour eyes okay. Yeah relaxing Yeah we're not getting sleep eping okay, you both have got some fantastic ideas. Yeah, I think work well done right guys? I think that we've already kind of decided us our sides without even realizing it. We're gonna have a little watch of this to help us think about it. So three today you're gonna be saying no, it is not a waste of time. Okay Daniel, you're gonna to be saying yes it is a waste of time. That's the teams we're gonna to be on. Let's have a look at here and hear what this lady has to say maybe can help you in your debate today. Here we go now to the great homework debate. How much is too much and when should it begin? Is kindergarten too soon? A growing group of educators says schools shouldn't give elementary age kids any homework. Okay, kice Christine Lazar looks at that debate and what the research is showing. Yeah, let's go you go ahead and get started this. Hey, if it's sloppy, we're gonna do it again is Raina Furman's least favorite part of the day in her see me valley home. I just don't know if doing all this work and having it be all work, all the time is healthy. The full time working mom, a ten year old Logan and eight year old Caleb, says she spends her late afternoons struggling with them to get their homework done. I don't want to say that it's not good to have responsibilities, but I just feel like they can get them elsewhere. Wonderful first grade teacher Nikki Hansen at bay laurel elementary in calabasis thought so, too. So this year she proposed to do away with traditional homework. The kids just need a break. They need time to unwind, just like we do at the end of a long day of work. Hansen found a plan online called unhomework. It's an outside the box way to get kids to continue their learning at home, and it's up to each family if they want to do all of it, or none at all. The other three first grade teachers have signed on as well. Assignments range from taking an outdoor walk to interviewing a family member. Even pick your favorite song and come up with dance moves to it and teach a friend. And it's something that the kids are excited about. Principal Steve cypress says reaction has been mostly positive for the majority of families. This was a welcome a welcome piece, a welcome ediand, much appreciated for some. The question is, is my child missing out on that practice? No, they're not, says educator and homework expert una Hansen. Hansen, a mom to too, has consulted with local schools on their homework policies. We don't have any compelling research to support the kind of homework most elementary school kids are bringing home. Instead, hanansen says, traditional homework in elementary school can cause kids to burn out and dislike school. And if taking time away from the things that actually do help them grow and develop, you know, having chores, taking care of the family pet, helping with dinner, playing outside and reading for pleasure is the one thing that benefits kids academically, even at a Young age, at led, the nation's second largest school district, homework is recommended starting in kindergarten. Led's homework policy is ten minutes per grade level per day, four days a week. It's a guideline supported by both the national pta and the National Education Association. Dr. David baka is an administrator of instruction and believes as long as it isn't excessive, homework has its benefits. In general, it's reinforcing the learning that took place that day and beginning to teach students responsibility. Over at bay laurel, the first grade teachers report their students are keeping up and complaining less. And Furman says she asked her son's teachers for less homework and they're still on the honor roll. Christine Lazar, k Cal nine news, okay, so some really good debates or band against. Okay, so a lot of things that we've already discussed about Yeah think about in today's debate, are the tasks useful? Do you find every piece of homework useful? Three, you were talking about earlier that yes, they can be Daniel, you're stating no. Are you given too much? We've got four hours of homework locked in bedroom, seeing no one. Have you got too little homework that maybe actually I'd like to learn more. I'd like more interesting tasks. Okay? And does it bring people together or does it puyou apart? Okay. Before I set you your preparation, I've got a drato show you. So in China, with a spend on average 14 hours a week at the age of 15 on homework, Italy has seven hours, usa does six. The uk, where I am, we only have five hours and sometimes only three. And Finland only has three hours of homework a week. Okay? So just let those fit in. This is their results. So as you can see, they're going crazy with the homework, with that homework. But look, China is performing better, but Finland is the second performing country and it only has three hours of homework a week. So something to think about. But three, think think, right? Is it because finfinla's homework is more targeted? So think about is Finland's homework being given that although it hasn't got as much, their homework is much more beneficial. It's much more, it's better. Whereas Daniel, maybe for your argument, think about has homework really improved people's grades that much? Yeah. So have a think because you're going to want to use maybe this graph in your debating today. We've brainstormed, okay? We're going to start to prepare. So as you know, we don't interrupt in our in our debates. We raise our hand. Yeah make notes as people are talking. You want to rebuttle. I'm going to be asking any questions, okay, I'm going to chair it. So remember speaking slowly and clearly, but you need time to prepare your debates. So have you both got a way of writing up your speeches today? You've got pen, piece of paper, computer, phone. So make sure you're prepared. Three. Daniels, prepared. Lovely. Okay, you've got time. So ap, I'm gonna give you a good eight minutes now to start preparing your debate. All right. What I'm gonna to do though is I'm gonna grab. I'm going to grab. Some structures for you. I don't I have any books. That's a way you don't have any books, so you don't have any pen and paper. I don't have any books. I think that's okay work. So I'm going to put this on the board for you, Daniel. So in here you can use these structures in my opinion, firstly, secondly, thirdly to make your points. Yeah and you can end within conclusion. In conclusion, I think that homework is a waste of time because okay, so you can structure your debate in this way, right? You want to be speaking for about two and a half minutes if you can, if not three. But don't worry if you don't make it to the three. Use graphs, use what you've seen in today, use the video, use that graph you've just seen to help you. Okay, I'm also gonna to put this onto the board for you so you can see everything we've talked about. Yeah, you're gonna to need that. I don't think I have have all my head. That's okay, that's fine as long as you're going to think about it and put and put it together. Daniel, I just want to give you time. Use research, have a little look, use the tools you've got around you. Yeah this is not a class where you could only have to think about what you just what you're saying. Maybe have a look. Is there an expert? Have you got an evidence to back up your point? Okay, so use that set again three add out you don't that's okay two way three I've got a I'm going to do something for you now which will help you and you can I'm telling you I'm gonna pop Daniel leave Daniel in here and I'm gonna start this there we are I shall be back now Daniel I'm just popping into the other group for 2s okay hello now even in this room Daniel can't see what you're doing so over here I'm going to grab for you I Oh you need to see in the other room to do it where's Daniel Daniel's in the other room hang on I God to swap you around right let's swap you let's swap you so that you can then use the research if you need to. Okay. What's that I'm going to show you now? So I'm going to pop Daniel into the breakout room so then we can chat without him hearing. Okay, okay, lovely right so three, let me pop this in here so you can there we are now you can research stuff. Yeah how much do people spend on homework each week here or what are the good things about homework? Okay, so you can have a little look you can use this then three to talk about something in your debate. Okay, so you can have a look at that. All right, okay, I'm popping on eight minutes, so I'm gonna to go and check on Daniel and I'll be back. Hello Daniel. Now she can't hear us. Now you can have a discussion. So Daniel, what are you going to be talking about in your debate? Like I'm going to be talking about why homework is not not why homework is is is a wastep time. And I got evidence because like my my my classmates brother is in fourth grade and and his mom said he did homework up to ten, ten P M. And that was so late. Amazing and examples of Daniel. We need to put this into structures for us. In my opinion, homework is a waste of time because firstly, Yeah firstly I have a fourth grade friend who no, Oh no, no, my classmates brother is in fourth grade. So I have a classmate who's brother is in fourth grade. If you was doing homework till ten up till 10:00p.m., till 10:00p.m., which meant, which meant homework was given to too many. And and and according to the charts, China is China is China. Every wawas given 14 hours of homework. And the chart shows that China is. Yes, and even though, and even though Finland was given three hours of homework, it still was this, it still was was the in the second place. And no, what is that? One in the second palace? Excellent. Okay. So second place in what we could say in the results table. Yeah. Okay, Daniel, I'm going to go and check on three. Think about your second and third point that you want to be raising. Okay, I'll shall be back. Okay. Three, how are you getting on? What kind of things are you thinking about? Daniel? Can't hear you. So what's going to be your first point that you're going to make? So we can say in I believe or actually you'll need to because you're so I believe that homework is not a waste of time because. Because homework offers good things like he can. Like we can we can help us learn more. Okay. So firstly, what's going to be your first point that you're going to make? And you can use look, we've got some research here. You can use this as well, can't we? Well, homeoffers good things like reinforcing classroom learning through patients. Well done. So we can say, firstly, experts say experts say reinforcing classroom learning through practice improves time management and responsibility. Thatbe a great one, wouldn't it? Yeah. So then you've got an expert opinion in there. Okay. Excellent. Okay. What could be your second point that you're going to make? Secondly, when you homework and you ask a family member, you and the family spend more time together and the family can spend more time together helping each other. Excellent. Day three. Have a think about that third point. We're just gonna check on Daniel and have a think about what third point you're gonna to make. Yeah maybe think about an example. Maybe think about that chart. Yeah is there anything on here that you could use or is there anything that you could think of from the video? What does it help us learn? Why does it help us learn? Yeah. So maybe have a little think about that as well or I'll be back. Really a promise. Right? Here we go. I'm going to join this group. Okay. What have you got for your second. But if you if you have. If you, if you have too much homework and like and after school, you have something really important to do when you come back home and your homework is not even finished, and you you would do your homework till 12:00a.m.. That that that would cause bad things to your health. Yes. Yeah, that would mean that I wouldn't sleep and could cause bad things to my health. Okay. What's going to be your third and final point here? Third is is that if you do too much homework, like like if you have too much homework like a paragraph, you have to do it independently and you will cut off your time with your family and you will spend less time with your family. And that would. That would make you want to that it. Will make both your family that will make your, that will make both your family and you unhappy. Well done. It's gonna feel sad. Be unhappy. Excellent. So then you can have in conclusion, I think homework is a waste of time because because because of all the reasons up there. Okay, waste of time and what we could say something because at time because we are at because we feel trapped rather than free. Okay, so my opinion in homework is a wawe feel in the cage full of homework. Okay, but okay Daniel, let's make sure we've got this. So this is gonna be your debate. You've written it out. Okay, I'll just make sure that three is ready. Daniel if I pop it into the chat for you, which I'll do when we're back on the other side, okay? Or you could take a photo Daniel, you can take a photo of your debate because that's your speech, ready? Yeah. So you can take a little photo if you want to or a screenshot. I'm going to go check on three and then we're going to come back together. Okay, three, how are you doing? Have you got your ideas for your third point? No, Yeah, I can't think of saying, okay, so Daniels kind of gone down this route of he's talking about families, we're talking about their practice. Okay? Why do you think think about all those beautiful things you said earlier? Why do you think homework is so important? Three. Because when you do it, you can help even if you know the things. You can help. They can help you practice things. It can help break. And why is that not a waste of time if you already know it? Because if you're not so good at it, you can also practice Yeah practicing practicing. Why do you think if we're practicing things we already know though? Then you can be even better, you can be even better, more skilled at the, at the subjects you find easier. Okay? And then we can say three, conclusion, homework is not a waste of time as it makes us more intelligent. Okay, right. Three, let's take a little screenshot of this. We don't want Daniel to see it. So if you want to, you can do a little screenshot. Three, if you've got your phone, you can make a little picture of it and then you've got your speech here ready? So I don't know if you want to take something. So you know it's there. You've already got your speech. That's okay. That's all prodent. That's all right. Three, what I'll do. I don't know where this wing my chat is going to be. Wait, Yeah, take a little piwithout me it. You didn't even mean in it, right? You got it. Okay, I'm going to grab Daniel. I'm going to you got it? No, it's. That's okay. Let me know when you've got it. I'm going to bring down your work. Actually, it's not very great. Oh, great, got it. That's better. Hey, we're going to break down aniel back. Okay. This yes is way. Hello, right? I'm very excited. I then got it. You didn't get it. It's okay. It's all right. Three, I'll pull it up for you. It's fine. Right? Are you ready? Our first debating together, right? Daniel is on the affirmative team and we'll go first. Because you are saying, yes, it is a waof dive. Three, on the negative side, because a signo, it's not a waste of the dive at Daniel. I'm going to put three minutes on the clock. What you've prepared. Don't worry. If you don't manage three, that's okay. You may I? I know. Wait. I think I, I think I need to take my picture. I need to think, I need to look my picture of the homeallmarks. Okay. Wheris my picture. Oh, here it is. Where's where's my picture? It's just here. Okay. Can you hear me? Can you hear me? I can hear you. I can hear you. Okay. See me? Because I can't see it. Okay, right, Daniel, go. Yeah if you hear me, that's good. Off you go Daniel. Okay, in my opinion, Oh my, it's a waste of time because we we don't as we don't learn anymore. Firstly, I have a clamate's brother which was in fourth grade and he did homework up to ten P M. Which meant homework goes too much and he cannot get any rest. And secondly, if you have too much homework, Oh no. And the chart shows that China is given 14 hours of homework, and even though Finland was given three hours of homework, it was still in the second place in the results table. Can you hear me? Yes, Yeah. Secondly, if you have too much homework after school and you have something really important to do, your homework is not finished when you come back. And you would work on your homework till 12:00a.m., which means you wouldn't get enough sleep, and we would do bad things. Your house, man. Thirdly, if you have too much homework, you have to do it independently and you will spend less time with your family, getting cut off your with your family, and that will make you and your family sad because you don't get to spend any time with them. In conclusion, I think homework is a waste of time because we feel trapped in the cage full of homework instead of running on the grass field playing something. Okay. Done. Wow. Done, Daniel. That was amazing. Easy. Minutes, it's okay. It was good. It was really good. Weldone, Daniel. Daniel, great structure, nice examples, good use of the results. I liked how you made it really exaggerated at the end. Yeah, nice conclusion. Okay. Three, are you ready to counter argue on the negative team over here? Are you ready for three? Don't worry, you're gonna to be amazing. I'm gonna put you all here because I don't know if you can see it on your watch, so I'm gonna to pop yours here. Okay, so you've got all those notes you've made all okay. Three, your time. Not because it's because it offers us good things, like it can help us learn more. Firexperts say, reinforcing classroom learning through practice improves time management and responsibility. Second, when you do homework and and you ask a family member, and the family can spend more time together helping each other. Thirdly, homework is so important, not because because no, you know, it's the things that can help you practice even though you already know it's it practicing can still help you as because you can be even better, more skilled and in the subjects you found easier. In conclusion, homework is not a waste of time and makes and it makes us more intelligent. Well done. Three fantastic. Okay, nice expert opinion, nice structure in this. Okay, well then listening to you both was really interesting. Yeah it was amazing. Well the guest three actually I really prefer no homework and again Frank, actually I would prefer no homework. Do you prefer no homework? Well three, you've put a fantastic argument out and I'm going to ask you a couple of questions before I make my decision. Okay, so we're gonna open the floor and okay, Daniel, you were talking about this idea that you can end up with too much independent homework and not enough and that means you don't spend time with family. Daniel, do you not think that there is homework that your parents could not be helping you with? Yeah, did not hear that clearly. Okay. I'll ask you again. So you talked about in your debate that you had lots of independent homework which took you away from family, but isn't there loads of homework that you could be doing with your family? And of what if the teacher says he, dad, you must do it independently, okay? But is there not homework that you can do with your family? Or do you think every homework needs to be independent? And sometimes homecan push you away from family because because it's like if you do many homework. Yes, let's not put who's on the board. No, Daniel, and you've done so well in your debates, guys. Let's take this, stay concentrated. We'll have a little bit of time at the end. But Daniel, waiting to tell me, do you think all homework is independent or do you think there is homework we could be doing with our family? Do you think three has a point or do you think three's point is wrong? Like almost are you holding hands? Three Daniel and three Daniel. Three, let's stay concentrated with still enour debate. Okay, Daniel, what do you think? Do you think that there is homework we could do with family or do you think all of it is independent? Almost all of it. Okay. What do you think does have a point? Yeah. Mostly you can ask a parent. So three things. Mostly you can all well, three, you talked about in your debate, okay, you said that, not the one about the this bit you said, where have you put it? I think you've deleted it. So three, you talked about this idea that homework can help us practice subjects and practice like without a teacher's help. Why do you think that's important? Three, because if you do it without a teacher's help, then it's all yours and then you can become coming. Very well done. That's a fantastic point. Daniel, do you have any questions for three? Yep. Anything she said that you would like to rebuttle or ask her? Yes. Why why does we want to go on the yes homeoh? That's a good question. Yes. Three, why have you changed your mind? What changed my mind? So Yeah, why do you want to now go on? No, I said, why did you? Why did you go under? Yes. No, why did you go on? No homework, kids, not a waof time. Yeah. Why do you think. Because I know you would probably say yes, and so I say no. Well three in future in okay, okay, well done. Well done and well done three. And Daniel, some really good debates structure, expert opinion, research, independent working. It was really nice to see you both talking. Yeah it's nice that you couldn't hear each other. So you have to make those debates bits for you. So to get to that next bit, we need to be listening to each other's debate or we need to be asking each other questions. Yeah to rebuttle to make that argument not seem as good. All right. Three, in future, if you also disagree, then you can tell me that. And then it will come down to to a coin toss on who gets to debate on which side. Okay? So if you agree sometimes with the debate, then we will do it fairly. All if good. Ever feel like you can't say I also agree? Yeah because there's lots of ways we can do these debates. All right, okay, space debate. Daniel Weldon. Daniel Yeah you've just picked three to the post. Yeah it was the example you gave about the fourth grade brother. Yeah. So that got you that that win today. Three. I still can't believe he done it. But three, the expert opinion you put into your debate was fantastic. All right? So I want you to keep building that skill, research your debates, have fun with it. Have lots of fun, bring lots of opinions to class. Okay? It doesn't matter if we're arrival wrong, it's about discussing it. Yeah. And youtoo absolutely didn't. Sinful. What a fun lesson we've had a look at a next week teacher is the best job. I want you to prthat I want you to prepare both sides. You are going to debate on both sides. You're also going to debate me next week as well.
