School gets more and more nutty by the day.
Today in Challenge, Mrs. Hoffmann wasn't there, so we had a sub. He told us to discuss Abel Chapter 15...so we didn't. Instead, we sat around in a giant circle and had rapid-fire debates for the entire hour. A proposition would be forumlated, and someone would argue the affirmative and someone would argue the negative. There would be a one-minute constructive statement from the affirmative, a thirty second cross examination of the affirmative by the negative, then a one minute constructive statement from the negative, a cross examination of the negative by the affirmative, and then a thirty second rebuttal from each side. Propositions for today's debates included:
1. Spaghetti is better than rigatoni.
2. In a fight to the death, a grizzly bear would win over a gorilla.
3. Voldemort will kick Harry Potter's ass in the 7th book.
4. Man went to the moon.
5. Mexico is better than Canada.
6. Kitties are better than puppies.
In addition to the general awesomeness of these debates, the best part was probably Alan's argument as the affirmative of Debate #2. Using airtight logic, he conluded that because grizzly bears don't die, they are 100 percent likely to triumph in a fight to the death.
Mrs. Hoffmann will love that report from the sub.
Then in Lang, Cmeyla told us to sit around and read, or do something constructive. Caitie Hawley pulled out a deck of Uno cards, and Cmeyla went, "Um, that is NOT an option." And thus, we were foiled. But whatever, we will totally play Uno before the end of the year.
