MUG #49

My parents and I watched in awe.
We watched on a hot August evening.
Erratic bolts of lightning illuminated the sky.
The bolts of lightning were from a distant storm.



Today we read more of Act I of The Crucible and took notes.  Please review your Persuasive Techniques handout.  Pay attention to each character's PURPOSE.  Who is his/her AUDIENCE as he attempts to achieve that purpose?  What APPEALS does he/she make?  (logical? emotional? ethical?)  What techniques does the character (SPEAKER) use to enhance his/her appeal?
