Stem Cells Debate Lessons Bundle (Updated)

The Common Core calls for students to be able to not only cite textual evidence, but to use evidence to engage in argumentative and counter-argumentative activities. What better to accomplish such a feat then to have your students debate!

This packet includes a Stem Cell Research PowerPoint (in pdf form), which goes with the Stem Cell Research Common Core Task Lessons, which leads up to a Stem Cell Research Debate. These lessons are a part of a genetics or reproduction living environment unit. There are Stem Cell Research Fact Finder Differentiated Handouts, which are great for a jigsaw activity, Differentiated Pre-Debate/Debate Handouts for high and low level learners, Role Cards, and a Common Core Aligned Debate Rubric. All sheets are in pdf form.

These lessons are for approximately a week of instruction, if all of the research is done in the classroom.
