Students in grades 6-8 in Ms. Kom's Writing Class held a March Madness Debate. For this project, students were assigned a college team and placed in a bracket where they debated against a peer by writing an argumentative response with a clear claim, evidence, and reasoning. It was a fun and competitive way to practice argumentative skills. Each student that made it to the Final Four received extra credit towards their overall grade. There was a champion for each class: 6A Ari Brunelle, 6B Ashtyn Crissler, 7A Cam Auth, 7B Addison Kom, 8A Addison Edgerly, and 8B Ariana Gourneau. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
