What argument could this group have in order to support the 'meat tax'?

"Our next guest, though, begs to differ" Is this guest going to give us (an) argument(s) pro or against the 'meat tax'? How can you tell?

00:59

What is FAIR's argument to support the 'meat tax'? Do you think it's a strong or a weak argument? Explain why.

01:06

What topic for an argument pro the 'meat tax' is given here?

01:12

What support is given for the environmental concern people have?

01:40

What is the final topic of the argument the FAIR group presents?

02:32

Explain in your own words: what argument(s) against the 'meat tax' does this speaker present?

Now that you've listened to people speaking out about being pro or against the 'meat tax,' what do you think you should include when defending your opinion?

so what do I need to do in order to prepare for my speaking exam?

*State your own opinion.

*Explain why you think so.

*Provide at least two points of evidence (research/important speakers/certain groups of people)

*Provide a rebuttal (weerlegging, iets wat tegen jouw mening over dit statement in gaat).

*Provide a conclusion

          Assignment (15m) to be handed in at the end of class.

          You can Use DeepL or ask each other/the teacher for help.

1: Grab the statement you've prepared for today. 

2: Create a mindmap around the topic with as many words (in EN or in Dutch) about the topic as you can think of. Why will this come in handy?

3: Write down your own opinion.

4: Explain why you think so.

5: Provide two evidence-based arguments.

Quick check: Why do you agree/disagree with the statement you chose?

Quick check 2: What evidence have you found pro/against your statement?

Quick check 3: Formulate your 2 most effective arguments pro/against the statement
you chose.

Keep in mind the previous question you've answered, have you completed today's lesson goal? (At the end of this lesson I can formulate 2 effective arguments against my chosen statement)

1. Yes and I found it useful
2. Yes, but I didn't find it useful
3. No, I don't understand it
4. No, I can't really formulate 1 or 2 effective statments

I think I can formulate 2 effective arguments for a new statement now.

1. Yes, I can do it by myself now
2. No, I'd like a little more help
3. Yes, but I would like to get my work checked
