Crucible Extra Credit - OPTIONALChoose one of the two Crucible extra credit assignments. Due Wednesday!! This is worth UP to 7 extra credit points toward your first quarter grade. Option 1: The Crucible thru EmojisNarrate the plot/characters of Acts 1-4 via emojis. For this option, you must include at least 12 emojis for each Act. Include your emojis and then write a paragraph in which you explain/narrate the plot events and connect to the emojis. You must do acts 1-4, so you will have a minimum of 48 emojis and 4 paragraphs. Example: Opening SceneBefore the play begins, Abigail, Tituba, and the girls were dancing around a fire drinking chicken blood and castings spells.Option 2: This Crucible Mixtape is Fire! How would the Crucible be told if it was set to music? Create a “mix tape” of 8 songs that relate to the characters/plot events from The Crucible. For each, include the song title and write a short paragraph explaining how the song connects to a character, plot event, or theme. Be sure to quote from the lyrics of the song in your explanation. Note: you don’t need to make and ACTUAL mixtape/cd. Example: Wrecking Ball – Miley CyrusWrecking Ball by Miley Cyrus is Abby’s theme song. She spend the entire play “coming in like a wrecking ball” and destroying the lives of John & Elizabeth, as well as the entire town of Salem. She seems to feel no remorse for her actions. Abby also refuses to give up on John and until the very end seems to think that John will leave Elizabeth for her. Her feelings toward John are best embodied by the lyrics:Don't you ever say I just walked awayI will always want youI can't live a lie, running for my lifeI will always want youI came in like a wrecking ballI never hit so hard in loveAll I wanted was to break your wallsAll you ever did was wreck meIn Abby’s sociopath mind, she probably thinks that John “wrecked” her, when in reality, she was the wrecking ball. ................
