| Happy Thursday! We are reviewing and practicing Socratic Seminars. Then we will divide the room and get started with our first attempt at a Socratic Seminar. You will enjoy it! Please remember: Inner Circle - "Leaders of Discussion," you lead discussion by asking questions, supporting ideas, and refuting your classmates. Refer to the text to keep your thoughts academic. You may use your question stem cheat sheet to help you out. Outer Circle - "Observers of Discussion," you listen attentively while the inner circle leads its discussion. During this time, you will take notes, write down additional questions, and reflect on their conversation. *Everyone will be in each circle at least once. |
