The fourth Workshop Day - Thursday 27.10.2016
In the morning we had lessons about debating skills. First we were told theory behind it, we heard what is a convincing argument and we had little ”warm-ups” by thinking how to use toothbrush in many ways. The German students showed us a ”show-debate” so that we would have an example how to do it. After that we had ”micro-debates” with 5 group members.
Some thoughts of our students about the Debate -morning...
- It would really good excercise if everyone had the same level with English skills.
- It was sad that only a few of the German students participateds
- It was fun to debate
- First it was hard to think what to say, but after you got started it was fun.
- Debating skills are very important skills in our lives
- This excercise was a good practice for our debating skills.
- It was great fun, but very difficult because I can´t debate.
After a nice school lunch we took the train to Lutherstadt-Wittenberg. There is another Europaschule, same kind of Europe-school as Walther-Rathenau, that we visited. After that tour around the school we walked to the Wittenberg´s castle´s church were Luther started the reformation. Then we went to the church where we had worked.
Here are some thoughts of our students about that....
- The school looked very peculiar out: garden in the roof, trees growing out of the windows...
- It was interesting to visit the church were Luther had worked.
- The whole trip was very boring
