Learning Target: RL.11-12.3 Analyze the impact of the author's choices. L.11-12.4.A Use context as a clue to the meaning of a word or phrase. L.11-12.6 Acquire and use accurately general academic and domain-specific words and phrases.

  4. Next: Socratic Seminar prompts for next class:
    • The events of Arthur Miller's The Crucible were real. Why do you think they happened? How could such well-intentioned people be so consumed by hysteria?
    • What kinds of hysteria exist today? Are there issues in the world so difficult to deal with right now that we only see them in movies, tv, plays, and books?
    • EA 2 will be a speech you write about an issue of personal importance. Writers like Arthur Miller who used fiction to address issues of their day, paved the way for leaders like Martin Luther King, Jr., John F. Kennedy, and Nelson Mandella speak-out about issues of their day. What are some things you see happening at school, on Maui, in Hawaii, the U.S., or in the world that you would like to see change?
Target Practice: I can make connections between events in The Crucible and issues that occur in the world today. Fist-5?
