As the files for this unit plan are too large for the TpT platform, you will find a word document when you complete your purchase, containing a link to the google drive folder dedicated to this unit plan. As always, if you have questions, custom needs, or notice an issue in the files- please send me a message and I will address your concerns. apryltaylor922@gmail.com
This unit plan should include everything you could possibly need to engage in a 5 week Congressional Debate unit. It will keep your students engaged while ensuring they improve their research process, argumentation strategies, and public speaking abilities.
This unit is intended to be used in a Speech and/or Debate course but could certainly be adapted to a Civics, Government, or English class.
If you are looking for something less detailed to use with your team, I recommend purchasing my “Your Guide to Speech and Debate Bundle” or, as always, consulting the NSDA website to find great information about and resources for events.
