The Crucible

We will finish reading, discussing and viewing The Crucible no later than Tuesday. Plan on our test over the play for Wednesday. I am attaching a review sheet here, but I will also give you one in class.

We will write our last journal entry for The Crucible on Monday; please be sure you have all five entries completed, as we will be collecting these on Wednesday.

We will begin work on a character analysis essay for one of the characters in the play on Thursday and Friday. We will also likely complete a few follow up activities to the play, adding a little more historical context to our understanding of it.
