Lesson Four:  Student led Socratic discussion

This lesson affords students the opportunity to lead a Socratic discussion with a small group of peers regarding the song for social change of their choice.  The purpose of these discussions is two fold:  1.)  students will practice analyzing instrumentation, rhythm/groove, lyrics, imagery, and symbolic language to decipher the meaning of a song.  2.) students will construct knowledge through thoughtful questioning that will inform and enrich the exhibits that they create and their upcoming classroom presentations.
