In the formative Socratic seminar, I think I did well in keeping the discussion moving and contributing with different ideas and opinions. Throughout the discussion, I was able to build onto other people’s comments and I was thoroughly prepared for the seminar. However, I feel like I could work on linking ideas to the theme of the novel and also making eye contact with the speaker. For the next Socratic seminar, I will focus more on exploring the effect of all language choices and making sure that I am not monopolizing the seminar.
