Part 2: Bamboo in the Wind  Socratic Discussion Graphic Organizer


Directions: 
Use this graphic organizer to prepare notes for a Socratic discussion on Part 2: Bamboo in the Wind. 
Write FOUR of your own open-ended questions and prepare discussion notes and evidence. 

YOU MUST INCLUDE CHAPTER AND PAGE NUMBERS WITH YOUR QUESTION BECAUSE WE WILL BE LOOKING FOR TEXT EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT OUR THINKING.

You are more than welcome to prep for more than 4 questions; add more rows to this document as needed.  

It is highly recommended that you print this out, once completed, if you have access to a printer, as having a hard copy will be easier to navigate during the Seminar than reading from your computer.

Instructions:

You will write a poem that shows the contrast between Ling at the beginning of the novel (as a “little flower”) and at the end of the novel (as an “angry tiger”). You will choose words/phrases from specific chapters that clearly show the change in her character and then arrange them into two side-by-side poems.
Step 1. Choose chapters from the novel that represent Ling as a “little flower” and an “angry tiger.” 

Step 2. Choose a chapter from the novel and search for sensory details and figurative language that give the feeling of Ling as both a “little flower” and an “angry tiger.” 

Step 3. Rearrange the sections of text that you chose to create a two compare/contrast poems.
