Directions: What to Do

This blog includes three posts (in addition to this one) that I want you to explore. The goal of these activities is to push us to a deeper understanding of the literary relevance of The Crucible and its themes. Here is what you will need to do know in order to successfully complete these activities:

1. Please complete the tasks in order. For example, the next post is the next activity I want you do complete. Just continue down the posts in the order they appear.
2. Click on the title of the post to be directed to the full post. Each post has its own set of directions. Make sure you read them carefully and complete the full task.
3. Each post will ask you to create a comment to respond to questions or tasks. Be sure you follow the directions of the comment expectations and also make sure you write your full name in each comment. There is no way for me to know who has commented if you don't do this.
4. Please do your own work. Any comment that seems to be worded very closely (or doesn't represent its own thoughts) will be scrutinized. It's okay to look at what other people are saying, but it is not okay to mimic their thoughts. Let your thoughts come naturally. If your own thoughts are similar to the thoughts of others, that's fine; however, your thoughts should not conform to the thoughts of others.
5. If you do not finish all of the activities in this blog, please work on this outside of class. You can access this blog from any computer with internet access. The web address is www.exploringthecrucible.blogspot.com
6. If you finish all of the tasks early, please be sure you are finished with the reading of Act II. You could also work on the green sheet which is due on Friday. If you are done with both of those things, go ahead and start reading Act III.

If you have questions while you work on this, feel free to email me at sampsome@wauwatosa.k12.wi.us
