Instruction:

- Theme:

DK has 3 closed ogresses. We need to kill them first in order to weaken DK.

- Rules: Debate game

+The ogresses will try to confuse us or convince us to see things in a prejudiced way. There

are 3 topics in this debate round. If human can:

avoid confusion and prejudice give objective and reasonable arguments

The ogresses will die, otherwise, the humans will die

have 3 minutes to discuss in group and 4 minutes to respond.

points of view and more important, critical thinking.

+ Try to find out the essence

+ See things from many aspects

+ Do not try to contradict the ogresses immediately without listening carefully and

understanding what they say because it is prejudiced of you to do so

+ Showing that youre seeing things in a more comprehensive and righter way may be

better than trying to attack the ogresses arguments to prove them wrong

Topics:

1. People should care for their own life rather than for the others

+ Life is a harsh natural competition. Thus, caring is not necessary. Its already so good of

us not trying to harm others like what animals do.

+ Everyone has their own life. They must be responsible for it. If one lives in misery and

poverty, it means he doesnt struggle and the result is adequate. Thus, people should spend

time building a cozy life for us rather than being distracted by them.

+ Life is too short and people dont have enough time and energy to do good for everyone,

who is not related to their lives. People should spend time and energy enjoying their own

lives.2. Earth hour is nonsense

3. War is a motive force of progress

Action

DK is going to revenge. If humans fail to defeat him, they will die. As DK is stronger as men

are bad, humans need to do good for today and tomorrow to weaken him.

- Rules:

In 20 minutes, all groups have to do at least 15 significant good things for people.

Different groups/ members from different groups may cooperate with the others

A good job is counted only when acknowledged and noted down by a facilitator.

Some suggestions:

Save the environment (clean the floor/ school yard, turn off unused light) Plan a project that is able to create positive impact on society (neednt big in scale) Make an useful and environmental friendly item Draw a picture/ produce a song/ roll call that is catchy and educative Help/give useful advice to a person to overcome a difficulty/ misery Say sorry to a person you have hurt and is forgiven by him/her Make a short presentation in front of at least 3 people. Topic is open. The audience

must gain something from the presentation.
