Socratic Seminar Question-Writing
WORLD CONNECTION QUESTION:

OPEN-ENDED QUESTION:
Write an insightful question about the text that will require proof and group discussion and "construction of logic" to discover or explore the answer to the question.

“AND IT MAKES ME WONDER” QUESTION:
Anything you want so long as it’s interesting. Not plot-based boring stuff, but something cool and relevant.
Example: After reading A Tale of Two Cities-I found myself uncomfortably comfortable with Madam Defarge’s need for revenge. I know it hurt the Darnay’s and that it was unjust, but I understood why she did it and can totally understand why she does what she does. Did you guys ever find yourselves feeling sympathetic for a character or cause within the novel that you feel like you shouldn’t have?
