BBC Compacta class 7th


1. Your school is organising a debate competition on the topic: "All School Bags Should be Banned!" You have to speak 'in favour of'/'against' the motion. Taking ideas from the hints given below, draft your speech in about 120 words.  Hints :

In favour of the motion:                               • Bags contain too many books and notebooks.                                                       • Heavy bags adversely affect students' health, especially spine.                              •   Books and notebooks can be kept at schools.                                                             • Age of digital books – one digital device enough for all subjects.                     •  online courses/ learning - so bags not necessary   

Against the motion:                                        • Bags also carry stationery, tiffin, sports shoes....... not just books                               • Bags help students be more organised and responsible                                              • Digital devices expensive and not available to all.                                               • The weight of bags could be reduced      • Bags with wheels should be introduced
