5th hour finished viewing a few more PSAs (see yesterday's post). A handout of some introductory rules for Socratic discussion was distributed and discussed, and then we broke into 2 or 3 large groups and discussed as a way to test-run and refine our own ideas and to take in good ideas from others before it's time to write. First, we discerned together the claim of the Pocahontas clip and the Over the Hedge clip and then the time was spent exploring possibilities for the EQ. The handout was provided to prepare to write and then we got started -- to be finished in class tomorrow.
