 * **Title**: || Hot Seat ||  ||   ||
 * **Subject**: || Social Studies ||
 * **Grade**: || 6 ||
 * **Time Frame**: || 2 20 Minute Sessions ||
 * **Summary:** || One student sits in the "Hot Seat" and is asked and responds to targeted questions by the class. This provides opportunity for students to practice asking good guiding questions, use clarification techniques, and asking follow up questions to get the information that they are looking for. ||  ||   ||
 * **Tasks**: || [[file:Hot_Seat.pdf]] ||
 * Objectives: || * Hot seat can be used to review and gauge understanding on any unit. ||
 * Assessment: || Questions are recorded by teacher or another student and students will practice asking and responding to the questions in small groups. Questions and answers could be recorded by students in interview format. ||
 * Resources: || * Video over Dia De Los Muertos
 * Edmodo ||
 * **Teacher**
 * Reflections:** || This lesson went okay in the way that it was the students' first time to attempt this format. I was a little disappointed that more students did not place their questions to the class page. However, I believe that part of this is due to my absence and not being present to remind them. I chose to use Edmodo as a platform to continue class outside the class. This could be a reason that some students did not participate. On one hand this allows them to utilize Edmodo and to interact with one another outside of class about social studies. It could be that in class would have been what I would consider more of a success, but this really put the responsibility on them. ||
