Civilization Debate Tournament #2. What an amazing single elimination tournament this one was! The 1st was great, but now they knew what they were doing, and got rid of their speaking fears. After they debated on what was the most important element when finding a place to start their new civilization, they got to debate on the first thing to do now that they found their place. Each student took another pre quiz to find out their choice on what to do first, (Choose Jobs, Choose a Leader, Build Protective Walls, Build Houses, Choose a Central Location, Split up the Land, Make Rules, & Make Peace with the Locals) I formed each group from their choices and the debate was on. I had celebrity guest judges for each battle royal. I cannot wait for Civilization Debate III.
Individual competition for the new place to start a new civilization. Each student had to choose 3 different places in North America to start a brand new civilization. They had to get the coordinates of each place and give reasons for each choice. Each student then had to pick the best one of their 3 and convince the championship team of the first debate that their #1 choice was the best place to start their new civilization. Then the Championship team had to make their choice after 3 rounds of narrowing it down to the very last one which was crowned "The Champion". Each winner is pictured below, and received a choice of a delicious treat. I enjoyed the entire process and especially liked the interviews conducted to narrow the field down to the eventual champion.
We had a major Royal Rumble Debate Single Elimination Tournament. There were 8 different groups that had to present arguments on why their element was the best choice in selecting an area to start a new civilization. The 8 elements were, (Food-Water-Fertile Soil-Gold-Trees-Good Climate--Non Aggressive Neighbors-Protection from the land) Each group was formed by their answers given on a Civilization Starter Survey given before we started the tourney. Everyone enjoyed themselves and gave some incredible and effective arguments. Each member of the winning groups got to come into my room during lunch and play games as well as getting a well deserved Fall party cakes and Trees. Each cities winning group has their pictures and winning elements below.
