THBT Co-curricular activities help to increase students academic performance

Thank you Mr/Miss Speaker. A very good morning I bid to the honourable panel of
adjudicators, the ever accurate time keepers, my comrades who will fight for the truth, the
opposition team, and members of the floor.

Our motion today is co-curricular activities help to increase students academic performance.
Before I proceed with my task, allow me to define the keywords of the motion.

Co-curricular activities are components of non-academic curriculum that helps to develop

various facets of the personality development of the students. It helps facilitate in the
development of various domains of the mind and personality such as intellectual
development, emotional development, social development, moral development, and aesthetic
development. Creativity, enthusiasm, and positive thinking are some of the facets of
personality development and the outcomes of co-curricular activity.

Help assist / facilitate / to make something easier

Increase boost / heighten / raise

Students youths who enrolled and are receiving formal education at either public or private
schools

Academic performance the outcome of the education the extent to which a student has
achieved his/her educational goal. This can be measured by looking at the marks and grades
a student get on test and examination results

As I have outlined the definition of the keywords for the motion today, the government team
believes that these components of non-academic curriculum can assist in boosting the marks
and grades achieved by youths who are receiving formal education in either public or private
school.

With that, I would like to emphasize how we, the government team, stand strong with the
motion which is co-curricular activities help to increase students academic performance.

Before I proceed with my argument, let me first introduce the members of the government
team. I, as the Prime Minister, have defined todays motion and I will bring forward one
argument which is co-curricular activities help improve students problem-solving skills. Our
Deputy Prime Minister will rebut the argument that will be brought forward by the Leader of
the opposition team and present two more arguments which are, co-curricular activities help
enhance students self-management skills and co-curricular activities help students to
unwind. Last, but not least, our Third Minister will rebut, refute, and demolish all arguments
brought forward by both the Second Speaker and the Leader of the opposition team.

Without further ado, let me present the government teams first argument which is co-
curricular activities help improve students problem-solving skills.
