Hello and welcome to my class.In today's lesson I'm going to teach you a very good and useful trick how to write essay and organize your opinions in a better way.

(一).Brainstorm

Here's a topic about going to bed early is better or staying up late  is better?

2分钟准备时间：1.可以列提纲 2.可以小范围讨论 3.语言不限（汉英均可）

Give your poinion one by one :1.每人必须表达观点 2.计时表达（不超过1分钟）

老师观察：1.words  2. body language 3.voice

老师记录：1.精彩的观点  2.全场最佳选手

Going to bed early  is better VS late is better. 这个辩题，整个分享完毕，选择Going to bed  late is better.的 仅有3名同学。但这3名同学起到了非常“引燃”的作用，他们的论点极其精准，且在众多正方论点中显得尤为突出且新颖，一轮结束，学生们的思维已经调动起来，活泛起来，要求再来一轮。

我：这会大家应该比较有体会了吧。所谓辩论，不是吵架，它的存在能够让你对自己的观点了解的更加全面、清晰。

（二）How to express and organize our opinion

不管你打哪个位置，你都可以这样表达和总结自己的观点。

1.State your general opinion about topic.

The only thing you have to do :Clear and restate the topic

For example:In my opinion,I believe it is better to go to bed early. I have 3 reasons why I think going to bed early is better than staying up late.

2.Give 3 supporting reasons.

One thing you must be sure : esay understanding

For example:

Firstly,science shows that an hour of sleep before midnight is worth two hours of sleep after midnight. In other words,you will fill more rested the next day.

Secondly,....... have a more productive morning ,that is because ..... higher energy level.

Finally.....weight management....

三个论据支撑我们的论点。如何找论据？ 专家观点、解释说明、举例子。

3.Restate your opinion.

（Always recap）总结重述

For example:So for these 3 reasons ,I believe  that going to bed is better than to bed late.

Brainstorm one more time:
