Fresh Off the Boat
Jessica vs. Debate Teacher

Jessica confronts her son's Debate teacher to learn why he cannot join the debate team when he is a better fit for it than other students. The teacher states that the Debate team is only for 5th graders and that Evan is too young. As their argument continues, the teacher turns it into a teachable moment by telling his students the aspects of debate that are occurring in the moment.

    I used this hook when introducing how to write arguments. It was a perfect hook. I don't watch this show but apparently it's trending on tik tok, so many were familiar with it. It was fun, sharp, concise, and compelling. It added a lot to my rather dry, but essential, lesson.
