There will be a Quiz tomorrow (Friday) on the Prologue of Act I The Crucible.
HINT: When you're re-reading take note of the setting, characters, descriptions, and the Author's opinion of the characters and events (remember he wrote the play over a hundred years after the actual events occurred) and the themes "Group vs Individual" and "Freedom vs. Order"

Homework Due Monday
Bring printout (paper copy) of your homework to class or email before Monday.
What to do :
1) Take notes on the Crucible (pg. 166-170). Demonstrate your reading comprehension. It is often helpful to think of a story as episodic, or not just being one big story but having related parts or episodes.
Some helpful questions to consider when you are taking notes.
Setting: Where did the episode happen?
When did the episode happen?
Characters: Who was the episode about?
Who were the people in the episode?
Who was the most important person in the episode?
Problem: Did the people have a problem?
What was the big problem that episode was about?
Action: What did the people do to solve the problem?
What were the important things that happened in the episode?
Resolution: How did the people solve the problem?
How did the episode end?
Theme: What lesson could we learn from the episode?
What tied the episode together?
Was there an overarching message?
2) Create a personal vocabulary list and write definitions for them. Attach the vocabulary list as a separate section to the end of your notes.
