Oliver Erdmann Mr. Zhou The Chinese History, People, and Culture 20 January, 2020 Day 9: The Great Debate On the last day of the China J-Term, we had our debate on wether China would rule or fail in the future. In the beginning of the day, we had an hour to gather our last research, finalize our slides, and practice our presentations. After that hour we had our great debate. Once both sides had presented we debated about the information and, in the end, there wasn't a verbal recognition of what side won but most of us were agreeing that China would fail. After that we had lunch at school and then worked on our J-Term presentation. Everybody was in charge of making a slide and most people were speaking in the presentation. After we had finished making the slides, we practiced it and timed it to see if we met the standards. Once done with that, it was the end of the day and the end of a fun filled J-Term.
