I Think We All Agree

As I was reading most of the posts about the Socratic seminar, I think we all agree that it was not only educational but a fun way to spend the class time. Personally even being in AP English last year, I've always liked the Socratic seminars because it lets me express my opinion and it allows my peers to answer, reject, or discuss what I have said. I mean, props to Adam for arguing back with me, and Heidi for supporting my reason; it was very entertaining. It was a great discussion. Just one person's opinion can spark anyone's interest in the class. I also believe that this is the prime goal of the class. To be able to get a entire class of seniors to seriously discuss a very highly respected book is nearly impossible. So good job Fletch!

I think that we should have these more often. Maybe not just about books but just a subject that Fletcher would like us to know more about and understand more in depth. I think that the Socratic seminar is a great way to get the whole class involved and be able to get a better understanding of the things they may not think about themselves while reading a book or an article.
