Lovely work today everyone as we worked through tracking the changes apparent between Act I/II and Act IV of The Crucible in order to understand Miller's main arguments. Remember that in an allegory everything stands for something else, so it is important to recognize that the resolution of these characters connects to the resolution of the Red Scare in 1950's America.
For tonight you should read and annotate "Why I Wrote The Crucible" by Arthur Miller. Use this as a means to check and deepened your understanding of the play. It's not often we have an author tell us exactly what they meant to do. You should also begin to revise your drafts of your rhetorical analysis - we'll have another check-in on this work soon.

Today was an examination day. Not the most fun or exciting day in English class, but a necessary day for us to show what we've learned and how far we've come. I'll work to have these exams scored and back to you by next class so that we can do any test corrections before the end of the grading period.
For tonight, enjoy a night off. We'll get back into our books next class and begin with the second half of our books, remember that you'll have vocabulary due again very soon!
