Submission Required
Students examine 4 short prompts about power, equality, and leadership drawn from Animal Farm themes and contemporary propaganda examples, then physically place themselves on a claim spectrum and defend a first reaction in discussion. The class tracks which reasons rely on emotion, fairness, fear, evidence, or overstatement on a shared anchor chart. Students leave with one controversy they are willing to argue.
