We will finish reading Act III this week.  Pay attention to the logical fallacies made by different characters.  Also, be sure you can follow Danforth's reasoning about why he believes Abigail and the girls are telling the truth.  How does Proctor attempt to change Danforth's mind?  Be prepared to characterize Danforth.  Why is he unswayed, even after Proctor brings forth such damning testimony?

Benchmark schedule this week.  I may or may not see you Tuesday-Thursday.  Friday we will be finished with Act III.  If you are absent on the day/s we did meet, then it is your responsibility to read the text on your own.
