Act II Reading Webs with SMM

BellringerWhat does John mean when he says, “I’ll tell you what is walking Salem--vengeance is walking Salem”? ~ Act II.

What does it reveal about the true motive of the girls?

Recap: We completed close reading webs for Act II today. These will not only help you with your test tomorrow, but also future papers, and character analysis.

In Summary: Elizabeth still has doubts about John's intentions with Abigail when she asks him to reveal Abigail as the fraud they both know she is. John has hesitations, as he knows this will also reveal his affair with her, which makes him a fraud as well for maintaining he is a good Christian.
When Mary Warren returns home from court, she states the jail count is up to 39 people, and has saved Elizabeth; however, she hands her a poppet she made in court which is later used to frame her. 
When the officials come to arrest Elizabeth, John says that this is all vengeance; people out to get their neighbors to settle old scores. 

Below are the notes we created in class today. I'm posting both class' webs, so you can compare notes. 




You all did such a great job today! I am so proud!

See you tomorrow!
