The Crucible

How do you know who is like what,

And who is who,

And what WHO is all about?

Consider the various methods of characterization:

1. Look at what the character SAYS.

2. Look at what the character DOES.

3. Look at what OTHER characters SAY about that character (remembering to keep in mind the source and make judgments accordingly).

Directions: For each of the following characters, write two very descriptive words (characteristic adjectives such as “generous” or “inquisitive” or “diligent” or “cold-hearted”). Then find evidence from the text to support your claims. Next, determine what qualities might motivate this character to act as he/she does.
