Literary Lenses Socratic Seminar Discussion Activity
I love, love, love Socratic Seminars because they force students to think deeply about the text, they give students control over the conversation (which means they are SO much more active and invested), they provide an opportunity to be amazed at what my students come up with, I can’t stop smiling afterward, and they’re easy to grade! I hope you love this as much as I do. I usually complete this activity after my students have been introduced to the various literary lenses and have had practice

Close Reading GATE or Advanced Character's Actions vs. Words
I am always looking for specific, student-friendly ways to help students dive into a deeper reading—a more analytical and critical thinking view—of any text.
This activity (and discussion) works well in my 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade GATE literacy groups, but there’s no reason it cannot be used up through 10th grade. The students will simply think at different levels; however, the format remains the same (see Common Core Standards below).
