Ideas for a 7th Grade Philosophy Club

Thanks very much!


Emily is a seventh grade student who chimed in on an earlier post where she mentioned, “I am trying to get more people to join my philosophy club, but no one wants to. They don’t want the answers. I do though.”

Readers, can we help out Emily? In the comments, please share your suggestions for:

  • how to encourage 7th grade students to join a philosophy club
  • activities such a club could take part in
  • especially good philosophical topics or questions for 7th graders
  • books, articles, shows, movies, podcasts, etc., that would be of interest to 7th graders
  • other related ideas.
