ROMEO + JULIET 3/25

WHAT IS THE SOCRATIC METHOD?

SOCRATIC CIRCLES! RULES OF ENGAGEMENT THIS IS NOT A DEBATE! The goal is to determine the best possible answer by revealing and discussing differing perspectives. This activity involves two circles, an inner and an outer. The inner circle discusses the question at hand while the outer circle (remaining mostly silent) takes notes and prepares comments to be interjected at the end of the main discussion. The circles will switch roles as we move from one question/idea to another. Remember this discussion is guided by answering questions and questioning answers! Feel free to challenge your peers!

SOCRATIC CIRCLE QUESTIONS Is Shakespeare still relevant today? Why? Given ultimate freedom would you choose to keep Shakespeare in high school? Don’t just answer “yes” or “no” make an argument you can support. Again with complete freedom, is there a way to “change” Shakespeare’s works to create relevance? How would you create relevance? In your own opinion describe the relationship of power and freedom. Do we see this relationship in Romeo + Juliet at all?
