1) How does your participation in the Socratic Seminar help you empathize with your students when it comes to classroom discussions? 2) What activity will you try in your classroom? by Missy Hernandez https://padlet.com/hernandezmi/1gzx4gw899ef en-us 2019-02-19 22:50:37 UTC 2019-02-20 23:03:11 UTC hello@padlet.com Reflection https://padlet.com/hernandezmi/1gzx4gw899ef/wish/333421052 1) This gives me a personal reference to what it feels like and the difficulties they are faced with.

2) I would like to try a short Socratic Seminar in my classroom as a workshop for students.]]> 2019-02-20 22:42:32 UTC https://padlet.com/hernandezmi/1gzx4gw899ef/wish/333421113 Reflection https://padlet.com/hernandezmi/1gzx4gw899ef/wish/333421308 I can empathize with students because speaking in front of a large group of peers and sharing my ideas is uncomfortable to me.

Hopefully after some time doing socratic seminars inner/outer circle, students will get more comfortable and the ones who have anxiety will eventually feel more comfortable speaking up. https://padlet.com/hernandezmi/1gzx4gw899ef/wish/333421347 2019-02-20 22:43:48 UTC https://padlet.com/hernandezmi/1gzx4gw899ef/wish/333421347 I love using this in class because the kids are able to really look at how each other are as human beings. https://padlet.com/hernandezmi/1gzx4gw899ef/wish/333421529 2019-02-20 22:44:48 UTC https://padlet.com/hernandezmi/1gzx4gw899ef/wish/333421529 Socratic Seminar mctillmonb https://padlet.com/hernandezmi/1gzx4gw899ef/wish/333421635 The activity helped me empathize how nervous I can get before I talk about a topic. 
The activity I will try is the turn and talk with framing times.]]> 2019-02-20 22:45:16 UTC https://padlet.com/hernandezmi/1gzx4gw899ef/wish/333421635 Reflection https://padlet.com/hernandezmi/1gzx4gw899ef/wish/333422300 My personal experience with the socratic seminar helped me to feel what my students may feel during discussion: fear, anxiety, impatience, boredom.
Now, I feel I can better plan for these instances and discuss them as part of the norms before trying it in my classroom.]]> 2019-02-20 22:48:36 UTC https://padlet.com/hernandezmi/1gzx4gw899ef/wish/333422300
