Agenda

1. Act 2 Passage Analysis

   • Directions: Closely read each excerpt from The Crucible. Decide which excerpt you would like to analyze for tone. Connect these devices to the character’s and/or Miller’s purpose.

2. View the logical fallacies presentation and take notes on the logical fallacies you see in The Crucible.

3. Complete the Logical Fallacies in The Crucible: Acts 1 & 2 assignment.

   • Directions:

     • In your table groups, choose one character from the following: Mr. Putnam, Mrs. Putnam, Mary Warren, Hale. Each person should have chosen a different character.

     • Next, individually focusing on your character, review the text and list examples of logical fallacies/faulty logic that you can find. List these in the left column. Think about what this logic must assume for it to be true.

     • Use your notes from the logical fallacies presentation to help you.

     • In the right column, indicate who your character is responding to.

     • You should have every character filled out when your group is finished.
