Connecting History & Literature
Work Time:
-Review Directions:
After you have selected group roles, begin completing the first two steps on your
own. When your group is ready to begin, allow the protocol facilitator to begin your
discussion.
-Elicit a Habit of Success in which students will follow during todays activity.
(Record as #habitofsuccess.)
*Be sure to honor the following Habit of Success:
-Have students take to decide on group roles.
-Students begin.
Group Roles: Protocol Facilitator, Task Manager & Time Keeper.
1. Students in the group all read the same material.
2. Students select a quote/passage that moves them based off the Guiding
Question: How does the setting contribute to the hysteria over witchcraft in
Salem? They document where the passage can be found, and notes on what
they want to say about it or why they selected it.
3. One member in each group shares by reading only her/his passage aloud;
every other participant in the small group comments about the sentence.
(They explain how the quote shows how the setting contributes to the
hysteria over witchcraft in Salem.)
The individual with whom the sentence originated may NOT read their
explanation of their choice until all other participants have made their remarks.
Hence, Save the Last Word for Me.
4. Once each member has shared, discuss how your selections connected with
one another. Discuss the Final Question: How does this lesson from history
connect to what we know about the effect of the setting in the short story
The Witch Who Came for the Weekend?
5. High Group Only: What might examining Salem Village tell us about authors
who write short stories? How has our understanding of the non-fiction author
deepened?
