Monday, 8 March

In class we discussed the movie version of the Crucible. We discussed what seemed to be motivating the characters. We developed a list of questions to help guide us through the reading of Act IV:

Why wouldn't Giles give a name?

Why did people believe the accusers?

Why wouldn't Proctor sign?

Why wouldn't (some) people lie to save their lives?

Was Elizabeth right or wrong to lie about the affair?

Was Giles simply stubborn?

Each student wrote about at least one of these questions.
