Inner/Outer Circle Discussion
How Does It Work?
 Each class member will come to class armed with a set of questions about the selection. (See
handout)
 The class will be divided into two groups: An inner circle, and an outer circle, and each group
will its own responsibilities.

Inner Circle Responsibilities:
 The inner circle does the discussing. They direct their conversation to each other, NOT the
outer circle.
 The discussion is theirs, and covers their own ideas and questions that arise in response to
questions offered by the outer circle.
 Be prepared to support your responses with examples/quotes from the text! Bring your
annotated copy of the text with you to the discussion!

Outer Circle Responsibilities:
 The outer circle provides the questions for the inner circle to discuss.
 When the discussion of the inner circle finishes a question, another student tosses out
another, and so on.
 If there is a lull in conversation, or a question was not addressed to an outer circle members
satisfaction, they should prompt the inner circle to continue, but
 Outer circle members MUST NOT take part in the discussion!!
 As the outer circle listens, they should take notes over the inner circles discussion, and write
down ideas and commentary.
