- Sharing/Debrief: Concentric Circles
- Tell students that in a moment you would like them to gather in two circles, one facing in and the other facing out, for Concentric Circles (Appendix 1). Students should face a partner they did not work with during the lesson.
- Give students 3 minutes for this final discussion question. If time permits, ask students to move to a new partner and continue to discuss this question.
• Collect students’ Close Reading recording forms for formative assessment.
• For the first round of Concentric Circles, ask students to share their gist statement. Circulate and listen to gauge students’ understanding of the first paragraph of the speech. It is not likely that they will have a deep understanding of the text at this point, but they should understand that Susan B. Anthony believed women should have the right to vote and that at the time of this speech it was against the law. Give students 2 minutes to share and take notes or revise their gist statements before moving to their next partner.
• Next, ask students in the outside circle to move three people to their right and remind them of the discussion question from the beginning of the lesson: “Is it ever okay to break the law? Why or why not?” Tell them that you would like them to discuss a different version of this question:
• * “Was it OK for Susan B. Anthony to break the law? Why or why not?”
