Wednesday - Final Socratic Seminar Preparation
Wednesday in class students shared their data information onto posters. The class went on a "gallery" walk to augment their own data charts. Students had some time to complete a pre-write for both Socratic Seminar questions and began writing their final copy for the seminar. You will have to have your two questions answered in essay form due at the start of class Thursday. Failure to have that completed will result in you missing the seminar, completing your work in the Mall, and your assessment will be scored on your written response. You would miss out on the academic dialogue that will be taking place in class. Also, if you are absent both days, your score will be based on your written response to the questions.
