Discussion texts

For our new English topic, we are finding out about discussion texts and analysing the features. Today we thought of various topics we could have a discussion about.

We thought that we could discuss:

Should we have Olympic games?

Should homeless people be given homes?

Should you go to prison for speeding?

Should we have more school trips?

Should animals be kept in zoos?

Please comment below with your arguments for and against any of these topics!
