Antebellum America Debate
Today, you are going to be prepping for a debate concerning the Antebellum era in the United States. As a class, you will all have the option to vote on which topic you want to debate. The following questions are the possible debate topics that you can vote on: 1) Was the War of 1812 justified? 2) Andrew Jackson: an American hero or villain? 3) Was the Mexican-American War justified? 4) Was the Era of Reform more revolutionary than the Revolutionary War? The winning question is:
Andrew Jackson: an American hero or villain?
Over the course of the class period, work with a partner or in a group to fill out the debate prep sheet on the topic that the class chose.
Remember, you need to fill out both sides of the debate! You may not get the side that you agree with.
