__ Procedure __ After giving them about 10 minutes to respond to the prompt, hold a brief discussion, preferably at least 5 minutes. What does the painting mean to you?
 * Introduction: ** I will ask the class to take out their journals and a pencil to respond to the artistic rendering “Salem Witch Trials” by ObsessiveManga98.

Modification: If the class contains students with visual impairments, I could choose to play a song for the journal prompt rather than have them respond to a painting.


 * Independent Practice: ** Tell them to continue working on their //The Crucible// Act IV Creative Writing Assignment. They will have access to computers and printers.
 * Conclusion: ** Remind them that the assignment will be due tomorrow, so if they do not finish it in class, they will need to work on it at home. If they finish early, ask them to find you so that they can find out what assignments or quizzes they are missing.

Assessment: No assessment today!
