This resource has been designed to effectively teach Romeo and Juliet through the Socratic discussion method, a student-led approach that fosters critical thinking, communication, and deeper textual understanding. A Socratic Circle is a structured discussion where students explore ideas through open-ended questioning, rather than simply memorizing facts. In this resource, you will find both a Teacher’s Guide and a Student Guide to support effective facilitation. Student Guide: Includes space for students to summarize scenes, answer critical questions in advance, and develop informed personal responses. It also features an observation page for peer feedback, ensuring students refine their discussion skills. Teacher’s Guide: Provides answers and key discussion points to assess student understanding of the themes, plot, and character development in the play. By using the Socratic Method, students engage deeply with Shakespeare’s language, improve analytical skills, and build confidence, essential for GCSE English Literature success. Included in this resource: 1 full Teacher’s Guide PDF 51 pages (includes socratic questions and answers as well as scene by scene summaries) 1 full Student’s Guide PDF 79 pages (includes information on how to engage in a socratic discussion, sentence starters, observation sheets, spaces to write their scene summaries and socratic questions with space to answer). **51ºÚÁÏ Notice: **This resource is for personal classroom use only.
