Crucible Powerpoint
Tuesday: See previous blog post for your first blog post's requirements
Wednesday: Begin hunting witches (and using research and textual evidence to create an argument) by reading "17 Signs You'd Qualify as a Witch in 1692" or "10 Signs that She's a Witch", annotating for interesting advanced punctuation usage, and completing a cited accusation of one of our Puritan Salemites. Choose roles for readers' theater.
Thursday: The accused decide whether or not to confess, then defend themselves, and we villagers vote on who among us is the real witch. Discuss Reading and Writing Rhetorically, then lread and analyze rhetoric in the 1692 sermon "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God". Find another witch - this time, include quotes from BOTH the article AND the sermon.
Friday: Accused, defend yourselves, and we will again vote. After completing the rhetoric analysis of "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God", we will begin readers' theater of The Crucible.
