Team Debate is great for any school subject! My template has room for planning arguments, support, and evidence. It also has a sheet for the audience to track the arguments and score the winner. There is also a list of 5 tips for winning debate, written by a California debate champion - me!

Debates make topics real, meaningful, and relevant to individuals, and offers a chance to improve on verbal abilities and critical listening skills. Rules for basic team debate and structure are also included. Debate is a great lifelong resource! All you need is a topic, and this is ready to print and self-explanatory.
