Crucible Projects

The Crucible Projects worth 150 points


Due: October 7/8 (Please remember the English Department’s nasty late work policy.)

Choose one:

1. Memorize and act out three full columns of dialogue from the play. You may have no more than three students in your group. Each person should have about the same number of lines. Time should be spent practicing together, finding simple costumes and props, and planning for a smooth and artful performance. Each person needs to be loud enough and lively enough to be heard and understood by the class. The selection of the passage should show key elements of the play. Performance is due October 7 for A day, 8 for B day.

2. Write a two page biographical research paper on Arthur Miller, using credible sources. Use Times New Roman, 14 font, and print only on one side of the paper. You must use MLA for your in-text citations as well as a works cited page with at least two sources.

3. Write a sequel to the play. Follow up on one or several surviving characters from the play. Be sure that your story follows logically and plausibly. It needs to be in the form of a play. It should be typed and at least four pages in length, doubled spaced, no bigger than 14 font. You SHOULD sound like Arthur Miller. Your characters SHOULD sound like themselves.

4. If you are currently registered for an art class at Bountiful High, you may be eligible for this option. Plan on spending four hours on this art project. You and I will have to conference about it in great detail, prior to my approving it. Mrs. Magee or Mrs. Sides will be helping me grade your work. See me today if you are interested in this option.

5. Write a two-page research paper about the real Salem Witch Trials, using credible sources. Use Times New Roman font 14, and print only on one side of the paper. You must use MLA for your in-text citations as well as a works cited page with at least two sources. You may do a compare/contrast with The Crucible and the real story, if you wish.
