Your Perspective Can Justify Someone’s Behavior.
This unit, although it’s not easy, I personally think it is so far the most interesting unit. We interpreted and analyzed Arthur Miller’s work The Crucible in details through various activities, the dramatic reading, TIEA analysis, and blogpost connections allowed us to inspect the darkness of humanity, it was also very thought-provoking while doing the activities, we tried to shift our perspectives to Miller, and his characters’ perspectives.
Lying is a major theme throughout this unit, we have been trying to justify or invalidate lying under different scenarios, such as justifying Abigail’s actions in TIEA and blogpost, but as the unit came to an end, I realized that if we change perspectives, everyone could be either a victim or a convict, this idea was in both my blog posts and comments.
Here’s what we did throughout the unit:
1. Dramatic Reading (My Character was Reverend Parris).
2.Guilt and Responsibility TIEA Analysis
3. Summative Blogpost Abigail, Convict? Victim? or Both?
