Almost Astronauts

The Crucible

This week we will start The Crucible

The crucibleWe will watch short sections of this movie each week to assist us with the text reading.

Here is what I have planned for us:

-We will share our reading and respond in writing to excerpts from the text to improve our reading + writing skills

-We will learn about literary elements like setting, theme, and point-of-view

-We will also create a group PLOT diagram!

-Then we will head over to readwritethink.org and complete a character analysis

Get excited about learning!!!
