Using the 'Socratic Discussion' approach (as described in Teachit resource 19717), students examine Eric's story in detail. This is a whole class speaking and listening activity that involves forming two circles of students - an inner circle who will discuss and an outer circle of observers.

Fabulous way to introduce debate to a class who are vocal but not disciplined. Fantastic for getting pupils really engaged in debate process. Would adapt well to use with Of Mice and Men too.
