I thought that some of you might want to use the Weschler/ McCarthy script for your Crucible essay, but of course it isn't available on line.. so I scanned it into the computer... but of course blogger doesn't let me attach pdf files... so I had to use another site in order to post them.. which means that if you want to access them, you'll need to click on the links provided in the 3 unlabeled posts containing the links W and M p1, p2, and p3.
If anyone finds other sources that might be helpful,or if you'd like to swap ideas about possible things to relate to the crucible, please feel free to post them. I look forward to your ideas.
I also found this and thought you might be interested:

On another note, if you get stuck writing your paper, please go back to the journal we did in class on Monday. You should be able to pull a thesis out of the work you did on an event that's similar to the Crucible. It's best if a theme/ message from The Crucible can also be applied to the event (then you won't have the "so what?" factor). You should be able to pull your topic sentences out of the specific commonalities you found (consider aspects of setting, character, and plot). Apply everything you've learned about essays so far... and since it's an at home essay, please make sure that it's in MLA format. You can review it using the links in the sidebar. If you have any questions, please post them. I will be camping for the weekend, so won't be able to answer questions until I return, but I encourage you to help each other in working through questions and confusions.

so can we write about how the Crucible comments on McCarthyism?
ReplyDeleteYes. If you read the directions on the handout, it should clarify.
