End of Discussion

(a) Focused Free-Write: End of Discussion Reflections

Below is a list of questions that you can use to reflect on what happened in our discussion today, what you learned, and/or what you are still thinking about.

Feel free to answer any of the questions and know that there is no right way to respond. You can use complete sentences, a list, a flow chart, etc. to take down your thoughts. This is about putting down words, thoughts, half-ideas, noticing's, anything really to paper.
  1. What is an idea from discussion that felt important? What was it? 
  2. What was something that lingered with you today? Why?
  3. What surprised you about discussion today? Why?
  4. What was your role in discussion today? What did you do well? How could you improve for the next discussion?
  5. Was there a moment in discussion where you were really focused? Why?
  6. Was there a moment in discussion where you weren’t really focused? Why?
  7. Try to recreate one of the things your peers said today that gave you a new way to think about the text today.
  8. What was something a peer did or said today that you found impressive?
