Description & Sample Pages

Agree or Disagree is perfect for young people ages 9-ish to teen (of all levels) who love to have their say and are game to develop their craft. (Adults enjoy the topics too!)

• It's packed with 110 classic, contemporary & creative debate topics, scenarios and questions.
• For educators, it offers a trove of prompts to practice persuasive, opinion and argument writing as well as compelling topics for small discussion groups.
• It's a fun and engaging way to exercise essential lifelong skills: the ability to reason, to persuade and to build an argument 👍

Overall, we challenge young people to stretch their thinking by:

• coming up with reasons that support their opinions
• providing examples to illustrate their argument
• connecting their views to experiences, news and history
• contemplating different circumstances
• considering the other side of the debate 

Age range: Starting at roughly grades 4/5. The topics and issues will also engage older youth and adults!
