I uploaded one more day's lesson to the folder on Learn@UW. The powerpoint is basically the same, and the activity is a pretty straightforward "lightning round" of arguing:
Split the class into groups, and have each group pull an argument out of a bag. Give the group 5 minutes to come up with valid counterarguments. Have each group share the argument/counterargument with the class. Repeat as time allows.
I left the list of counterarguments blank because I'm not being very creative right now, but my thoughts were to briefly give background information on a topic and then come up with ten or so arguments for them to counter in groups.
Enjoy the easy day today, and have a great weekend!
