Rainforest cards - for and against developing the forest. These cards can be moved around to provide arguments about developing the rainforest. A third pile should be the cards you decide NOT to use.

 

when you have opened the word document, you should decide which cards support rainforest development, colour them by using the paint pot tool, and move them up on to the sorting table. do the same for statements that  urge caution in developing the forest. Make a pile of cards you don't want to use at all. Save the file in your user-area.
