Shaun is in the audience and knows. Amazing!! Crucible: When the girls mocked Mary Warren in court, the audience knew they were lying and that witchcraft had nothing to do with it. Ex- Abby was lying and the audience knew it.

Situational: A students studies for a test and expects an A, but ends up receiving a C. Ex- Someone who drinks is killed by a drunk driver. Crucible: Mary Warren accuses Proctor of being a wizard and Abigail did not expect that to happen.

Verbal: "Is the sky blue?" No, its green! "Of course its blue." Ex- Jared tells Shaun that he likes his green jacket. Crucible: Hale claims to be doing the work of the devil in sarcasm, when really he was trying to save the people and bring them back into God's light.

8. Damnation- John Proctor understood he was in a "Damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation when he was confessing. He knew if he confessed, he'd be a liar, but not confessing would condemn him to be hung.======

I think Proctor made the right decision. He showed that he was strong and was not afraid to give up. I can't say I would have done the same thing. I probably would have confessed and got it over with so I could go home. ======

Parris went through a change in the play. At the beginning, he believed what Abigail was telling him. At the end when Abigail ran away, he realized that it was a mistake to believe her. Another character that went through a change is Elizabeth.======

Yes I have experienced a change in life. When I was in middle school, I was a hunky, chunky monkey. Then one day I got sick with pnemia and was out of school for ten days. I lost ten pounds from being sick. I finally got better and continued to lose the weight because I changed my diet and exercised. This then made me want to get involved in sports and I am now in volleyball and track. ======
