Monday, March 9 Agenda

• Bell Ringer: Finish A2 (74-81)
• In WN or Notes: Previous Screen: A2S2 Writing and Hale Dynamic Char.
• • What was the author’s purpose in writing the scene (Act 2 Scene 2)? Why has this scene been cut out of basically all performances of The Crucible? What do readers/viewers gain from the possible addition of the scene, what do they lose/why is it unnecessary? Need min. two full paragraphs.  Give multiple reasons.
  
  
  • Think of Rev. Hale’s change from the beginning (pg 36) to Act 2 (re-read his entrance to A2 (pg 62) and how he acts/what he says at the end).  Why has his manner/appearance changed? Did he want to find witchcraft in Salem when he arrived? What does he feel about the trials now? What evidence in act 2 backs up your opinions and/or shows a possible change? –Write the evidence at least (direct quotes and pg #)
• Focus Points Discussion and more: 
• What happened with Abigail and the doll? Did Mary know what Abby was going to do? What makes you say this?

• Pontius Pilate? Why?
• Pg 79 Hale’s speech interpretation (write it down)
• What about what Hale said affected John most? Why? What does he think about himself?
• Re-read John’s last lines in A2 (pg 80-81)- Interpret what he means by that. (write it)
