Dear Juniors,

Enjoy your weekend! What did we do in class today, Mrs. Crampton?
Well, let's see.....

1. We started reading THE CRUCIBLE during our last class period. We also obtained all the information regarding the characters and vocabulary for ACT 1. Today I shared ACT 1 from the film THE CRUCIBLE so that each student could obtain a visual image of the characters. This was helpful, as everyone in class was able to answer some of the study guide questions for Act 1.

NOTE: If you missed class, I would suggest that you rent the film and watch it up to the "crying out" scene. The clip for Act 1 is approximately 20 minutes.

2. We then continued to read. Brian and Becky did well with acting out the scene between John Proctor and Abigail. Thanks for the great laugh, you two!

HOMEWORK:
1. Please make sure that you read/annotate/notate Article of the Week #2 using all your colors, but primarily RED!
2. Please respond to your ACT 1 study guide questions for TUESDAY!

Cheers,
Crampton
