Overall I thought I had contributed to the Socratic Seminar, I was capable of asking meaningful questions and add interesting ideas to the conversation. I thought I provided good information my group like the many examples i had pulled from The Book
Thief. Although I had shared a lot with my group i had wanted to share with group about my thoughts of censorship and why humans will never accept their voice being silenced. I believed the idea that help me best understand the topic was Shivani’s question about if living was easier in holocaust. When i heard Shivani’s question something trigger in my mind that inspired me to think deeply if i was in the shoes of a jew. I believe this question was power because i imagined if i was one of the jews who lost their family.
I learned a lot from the seminar for example i had a idea what it was like living in a jews’s shoes and the value of life. Just because of one questuion i was able to think of life in another prespedctive at the same time life has a new meaning.
