"The Crucible" Introductory Learning Stations

Use these interactive learning stations to help introduce "The Crucible" and Puritan writing. There are a total of 8 interactive stations which explore the themes of witchcraft, Puritan life, relationship to Native Americans, the belief in the supernatural, gender roles, church and religion, the definition of "crucible," and McCarthyism. Students will interact with each station in a group and respond to a specific task for each station.
