📖 Core Concepts: What is a Debate?
A debate is a friendly talk where two groups share their ideas about a topic. One group says "Yes" and the other says "No".
We use good reasons and examples to support our ideas. It's like telling a story but with facts and feelings!
| Team | Role | Example Topic |
|---|---|---|
| Affirmative (Yes) | Supports the topic | "Mangoes are the best summer fruit." |
| Negative (No) | Opposes the topic | "Watermelon is better than mangoes." |
Each team speaks one by one. We listen carefully and say our points politely.
