  1. Dyrt Quiz • Short Response: Answer the following questions based on your knowledge of the drama. Write a sentence or two on a separate sheet of paper. • Describe one piece of evidence that Giles, Francis, or Proctor bring before the court to show that the girls are lying. • What does Abigail do to distract Danforth from Hale’s accusations that she is lying? • Danforth explains that “. . . a person is either with this court or he must be counted against it, there be no road between.” What conclusion can you draw about Danforth’s character from this line? • How does Hale excuse Elizabeth’s lie about Abigail’s affair with Proctor?

  2. Conflict RL 1: Cite strong and thorough textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text, including determining where the text leaves matters uncertain. RL 3: Analyze the impact of the author’s choices regarding how to develop and relate elements of a story or drama (e.g., where a story is set, how the action is ordered, how the characters are introduced and developed.)

  3. Quick Write • Conflict causes tension, and when things get tense, people do surprising things. Some of these acts can be heroic, some can be shameful, and others, simply unexpected. Write about a tense situation you've been in. How did you react? How did others react?

  4. Conflict • The struggle that grows out of the interplay of two opposing forces. • OR: a fight, a battle, a struggle to keep one person from getting what they want/need. • Your goal: to go to college • Your conflict: failing grades • The story: Do you achieve your goals or do the failing grades keep you out of college?

  8. Humankind vs. Self • Man vs. self • This is when the protagonist has inner conflict • Man vs. fear/self doubt/ narcissism/ insanity/paranoia • Examples?

  9. Humankind vs. Nature • Man vs. Nature • When a character has to struggle against a part of nature in order to survive. • Man vs. a murderous animal. (Jaws) • Man vs. the elements (Castaway) • Man vs. weather (Hurricane Katrina)
