I stamped the 12-23 study questions but did not collect them because I wanted you to have them for review before the Monday quiz. We discussed most of these as part of class discussion.
TODAY IN CLASS
Quiz: Make-up ASAP; SEE ME tomorrow.
- Background on the 17th Century material in the textbook; Crucible PowerPoints (see early blog links)
- Act One of The Crucible
During class:
First, review time with the red textbook (focus on pp. 3 and 8, 11-12, chart on p. 47 (Virginia and Massachusetts)
Returned brief "crucible" definitions and discussed. Be thinking now of how the definition will apply to characters and action in the play.
Collected the 12-23 portion of the Act One study guide questions.

Collected the 12-23 portion of the Act One study guide questions.
Then the quiz.
Then reading time on Act Two. See reading guide on the back of the hand-out. This act should have been started as week-end homework, but . . . no harm done today. But you had 15-20 minutes to read today, and the act is approximately 30 pages long. Twenty pages is an average 9th grade reading assignment! :)
5th period saw the vocab correct answers so that they could make corrections. I forgot to do that for 1st. So the vocab quiz will be first thing on Wednesday instead of tomorrow.
SO--FOR TOMORROW
Finish reading Act Two. During class you will work with a partner on some questions over this act.
