Ниже — подробное пошаговое решение на английском языке с образцами текстов и языковыми пояснениями. После каждого раздела будут короткие пояснения на русском, чтобы проще понять, как использовать материал на занятиях по английскому. Step 1. Imagine you are going to stand for MYP elections. Give reasons why you would make a great MYP Texts you can use or adapt: - Reasons (bullet points) - Opening statement (short paragraph) Reasons I would make a great MYP representative - I listen to others and collect ideas from all groups, not just from my friends. - I communicate clearly and calmly, so classmates understand what’s happening and what the plan is. - I work well with people from different backgrounds and ages; I’m inclusive and respectful. - I take responsibility, follow through on commitments, and keep my promises. - I care about the IB MYP aims: intellectual curiosity, service, reflection, and integrity. - I can stay organized and manage time during projects, debates, and events. - I want to create opportunities for every student to have a voice, including those who don’t usually speak up. - I’m motivated to bring about positive changes like more student feedback, visible action on ideas, and community service projects. Opening statement (example you can use in a campaign speech) “Hello everyone, I’m [Your Name], and I’m running to be your MYP student representative because I believe every voice in our school matters. If you elect me, I will listen to your ideas, questions, and concerns, and I will bring them to our teachers and leaders. I plan to run monthly student forums, create a simple way to share ideas, and organize inclusive projects that help our school and community. I will be a reliable bridge between students and staff, speaking with honesty and acting with integrity. Together, we can make our MYP experience more engaging, fair, and inspiring.” Языковые заметки (language notes) - Use modal verbs to express commitment: I will, I promise, I plan to. - Этос/логос/патос: emphasize credibility (I’ve led ___), logic (clear plan), and empathy (every voice matters). - Включайте нейтральную формулировку: “I will listen to all students” вместо обвинений или субъективных заявлений. Step 2. Run an election campaign. Prove that you’ll make the best MYP inside your group. Have debates. Campaign plan (structure and activities) - Define your platform (what you stand for): student voice, transparency, inclusion, service, environment, wellbeing. - Know your audience: all year groups, different homerooms, clubs, sports teams. - Campaign materials and channels: short announcements, class talks, posters, a clear one-page platform. Avoid social media in-school unless allowed; use approved channels. - Slogans (2–4 options): - “Your Voice, Your MYP” - “Together We Learn, Together We Grow” - “Representing All Voices in Our MYP” - Timeline (example): - Week 1–2: Nomination and platform development - Week 3: Campaigning with respectful presentations - Week 4: Debates and Q&A - Voting day and results Debate structure (how to conduct) - Rules: respectful language, no personal attacks, allow each candidate to answer, give time limits. - Format (recommended): - Opening statements: 2 minutes per candidate - Q&A: 4–6 questions from peers, 1 minute to answer each - Cross-questions: brief follow-ups (30 seconds each) - Closing statements: 1 minute per candidate - Language tips for debates: - Use examples: “In a recent project, I…” - Show evidence of leadership: “I’ve organized ___” or “I’ve helped ___ members share their ideas.” - Be concise and confident: “My plan is…” rather than long-winded explanations. Sample debate script (short example) - Moderator: “Why do you think you are the best choice to represent the group?” - Candidate A: “I’ve listened to many classmates about the need for monthly forums, and I’ve already started a suggestion box in the library. If elected, I will organize these forums and report back every month.” - Candidate B: “I will focus on inclusivity by holding open all-year forums and ensuring every year group has a voice in decisions that affect us all.” - Moderator: “How will you handle a question you don’t know the answer to?” - Candidate C: “I will consult teachers and peers, then share a plan within 24 hours. If needed, I’ll nominate a deputy who can help.” Step 3. Organise elections. Vote for the best speaker to represent your interests and ideas. Election organization plan (practical steps) - Nomination period: students submit their candidacy with a short platform statement. - Campaign period: candidates present their platforms to peers using approved channels. - Voting day: hold a secret ballot in a quiet, supervised area; ensure everyone votes once. - Ballot design (example): - Ballot paper: 1) [Candidate A] 2) [Candidate B] 3) [Candidate C] - Instructions: “Mark your preferred candidate with an X.” - Counting votes: - Use simple plurality (the candidate with the most votes wins). If a tie occurs, have a quick run-off between tied candidates. - Have neutral monitors count votes to ensure fairness. - Announcement and handover: - Sample announcement: “Congratulations to [Winner], who will serve as MYP Student Representative for the next term. Thank you to all candidates for participating and to everyone who voted.” - Transition: schedule a short handover meeting between the outgoing and incoming representatives to pass on files, ideas, and ongoing projects. Language tips for Step 2–3 - Phrases for campaign and debate: - “I will/I pledge to…” - “My platform includes…” - “I believe that… will benefit all students by…” - “If elected, I intend to…” - Phrases for inclusivity and collaboration: - “Everyone’s voice matters.” - “We will work together with teachers, staff, and students.” - “We will listen, reflect, and act.” - Ballot-related language: - “Please vote for the candidate who best represents your interests.” - “All votes are secret and will be counted fairly.” Example ready-to-use texts (put together as a mini-package) - Opening statement (Step 1): “Hello everyone, I’m [Your Name], running to be your MYP representative because I believe every student voice matters. I will listen to your ideas, hold monthly forums, provide a simple way to share suggestions, and ensure every year group is heard. I will work with teachers and staff to translate ideas into real actions, and I’ll be a reliable link between students and leadership. Vote for me if you want a student leader who cares about inclusivity, transparency, and a better MYP for all.” - Brief campaign slogan options: - Your Voice, Your MYP - Together We Learn, Together We Grow - Representing All Voices in Our MYP - Quick debate question (to practice): “How will you ensure that students from all year groups feel represented in decisions that affect the MYP?” - Sample ballot text (Step 3): - Ballot 1. [Candidate A] 2. [Candidate B] 3. [Candidate C] - Instructions: “Place an X next to your chosen candidate.” Russian-language explanation (для быстрого понимания) - Что учесть в английском тексте: использовать более формальные конструкции (I will, I intend to, I pledge), показывать конкретные действия (monthly forums, feedback box), акцент на инклюзивности и ответственности. - В тексте дебатов важно избегать обвинений, держать фокус на действиях и планах, приводить примеры и обещания, которые можно проверить (конкретные сроки, форматы встреч). Если хочешь, могу адаптировать эти образцы под конкретный класс, расписать точный план по датам и подготовить полный набор материалов: серию коротких речей (opening, rebuttal, closing), готовые вопросы для ответов на дебатах и шаблоны бюллетеня для вашего класса.
