Assignment 2

Now that you have finished the first act of The Crucible, you need to select one of the following writing prompts on which to write a one-page, double-spaced, typed response. While I don’t expect you to go through a brainstorming or outlining process for this response, it should be obvious that some thought went into the assignment. This assignment will be turned in with portfolio 1 in lesson 5.

Please select one of the following prompts to write your journal about.

  • Choose one of the anticipation statements you ranked before you read and expound on your thoughts.
  • Fear, or any emotion, can be a dangerous and powerful thing while experienced in a group. Describe a time when you allowed yourself to be carried away because you were feeling an emotion in a group setting.
  • The world has experienced many times when fear overcomes reasoning. What text-to-world connections can you think of?
  • Why do you think Abigail has so much power over the other girls? Is this a fairly accurate characterization for Arthur Miller to make—that, in a group of friends, there will be one individual who will be so strong as to almost bend the will of the others? Have you seen this happen in your experiences?

Please format your assignment in the following manner. Assignments not labeled correctly will not receive credit.
