This is my favorite tried and true lesson I do in the first week of school. It is engaging to a wide range of students and sets the stage for a classroom in which many answers may be correct. It is the perfect introduction to what eventually evolves into Socratic Seminars in my classroom. Used in English, History, Debate, Theater classes and more!
