You will need it after you finish reading the play. Directions: Answer each of the following statements two times: once before reading the play and then again after reading. After reading the play, come back to this activity and answer the questions at the bottom of the page. Write Y if you agree with the statement Write N if you disagree with the statement. Before Topic: Salem Witch Trials After Reading Reading The play The Crucible is true story of what happened in Salem. Reflection Questions Nobody really died as a result of the trials. Several women were actually practicing witchcraft to try to destroy the Puritan religion. People were believed to be guilty until proven innocent in these trials. The witch hunt was started by a group of young girls. A common way to press the truth from people was to place heavy stones on their chests until they agreed to talk. Witch hunts could not happen in modern-day society. 1. Which of your answers in the chart above changed after reading the play? What changed your opinion? 2. Which change surprised you the most? How might this new knowledge make you see other situations in the future? 3. Did any of your answers stay the same? Does this surprise you? Explain. 29

9 Act Two Handout 1 Act Two: Countless Conflicts A conflict is a struggle between two forces. In literature, authors use many types of conflicts to add to a story s plot. This is true of The Crucible. Directions: Fill in the blanks below with character names to see the different types of conflicts found in this play. Person vs. Person conflicts are the struggles between two people. These can be physical struggles or emotional struggles. Person vs. Person Person vs. Self conflicts are the struggles characters have with themselves. Often the struggle deals with an important decision or shameful secret. Person vs. Self Person vs. Society conflicts are struggles between a person and a larger group. In this play, a character might be in conflict with the whole Puritan society, the church, or a smaller group of people like the accusing girls. vs. vs. vs. vs. Person vs. Society vs. vs. 33
10 Act Two Handout 2 Journal Topics Each of the following journal topics relates in some way to Act Two. The topics also deal with real-world problems. Your opinions about how characters act in literature show how you think about the same events in the real world. These journal questions are as much about you and your thoughts as they are about the play. This is your chance to share your ideas on the topics. Directions: Answer the questions below. John committed the sin of adultery with Abigail. This means he was not faithful to his wife. Does he seem truly sorry for his mistake? Does Elizabeth truly forgive him? In your opinion, can a husband or wife ever truly trust the one who cheats? Explain. Reread for clues on how this mistake changes their marriage. Would you give a cheater a second chance? Explain. The Puritans believe that bad luck comes to an entire community if just one member of their group sins. This explains their personal worries over their neighbors behavior. Is it true that one bad apple can spoil the barrel? Do the actions of your neighbors or classmates affect your decisions? If they misbehave, will you also suffer in the future because of them? Explain. Arthur Miller married film star Marilyn Monroe in
11 Act Two Handout 3 Wheels in Motion In Act One, Ann Putnam says, There are wheels within wheels in this village and fires within fires.

Each event seems to set in motion other, worse events. Directions: Think of things that happen in the play that fit this pattern. Fill in the events below to show how they are connected. Be sure to add details! Event One Event Two Event Three 35

13 Act Three Handout 3 Character Flaws Many of the characters in this play blame their problems on outside forces. However, the true source of their troubles is inside themselves.

You won t use every flaw listed. envy dishonesty guilt suspicion quick-tempered behavior lust immaturity greed grief self-doubt Character Flaw Example John Proctor Abigail Williams Reverend Parris Ann Putnam
