Use discussion detectives to seek good examples of the discussion roles being used.

Milestone Giving reasons to support views Critically examining ideas & views expressed Practice: knowledge (Building on immersion, learners have opportunities to acquire and develop knowledge in numerous ways) Re-cap the rights of a child. In groups children focus on some of the statements and illustrate what this looks like in school. Each group/child creates their own “one square” contribution to this – drawn and joins together with the rest of the class to create one poster. ‘The Rights of the Child at Filton Avenue’. In groups, learners research specific countries and their record on human rights for children. What differences do they find. Learners add this to their information for their debate.
