-After this debate i think that i can talk,i can talk infront of everybody.I felt that i have changed from when i realise i wasn't like this I felt different a change for the better.
-To practise oral,maybe because i didn't get to practise this way at home or any where else i felt a little nervous that first but after i raised my hand and talk well...it wasn't that bad at all.
-Not really.I think English and Literature is fun in some kind of way,and i have always think that english is interesting~Never ending words,no-matter how old you are how good you are,knowing all the words in the world is something kind of impossible.It is a never stop learning subject.
-The author uses alot of discribing words and always gives us clues on what is happening next and they discribe what the characters are doing,thinking,gives us the idea of the place the surrounding,the look sometimes they write stories with interesting storyline or with jokes and even imagination from the characters-all of this makes a book the best and hard to put down.

Reflection on Hatchet Debate

Within 1 hour, 39 pupils spoke out and shared some of their thoughts on a given topic and in so doing allowed others to have insight of their own beliefs and values - think of the 'Perfect Home' discussion.

I would like to applaud the 39 individuals for bringing such a professional quality to the debate - all contributed to its success and the 'energy' that resulted from this concerted effort will be converted into greater motivation for 6 Grace.

Please take time to reflect and share your thoughts on the following:

How did this debate affect my perceptions of myself?
In what ways did the debate fit my learning style?
Has it influenced the way I perceive English and Literature?
What did the debate show us about the 'tricks' authors use to captivate the heart and mind of the reader?

I had such pleasure hosting the debate and I felt the true magic of 6 Grace.

Please post your thoughts. Thank you.
