Socratic Seminar

Good Morning!
*Independent Reading -- please read until we are ready to begin

*Socratic Seminar on "The Road Not Taken" -- you have written four open-ended questions on the poem. I will get the seminar started by asking a question.

Rules for the Seminar Process

*You do not need to raise your hand to talk.  Focus on the main speaker and wait your turn.  LOOK AT THE SPEAKER.
*Respond to each other, using each other's names.
*Remember that one person speaks at a time.
*Speak voluntarily at least two times.
*Make clear statements and REFER TO THE TEXT.

NOTE:  The Socratic seminar is typically done in a circle, but we will try it without one.  I am going to insist, however, on the use of a microphone.
