The Witchcraft of Salem Village Cycle 2, Day 6
Personal Opinion Essay What do you think about the Salem witchcraft trials? Pick one of the following questions and give your own opinion, based on what you have read and on what you, yourself, believe: • Who was responsible for the witch craze and why? • What could or should people have done to end the witch hunt earlier? • How would you have reacted if you or someone you knew had been accused of witchcraft? • Is seems like people were tried by a court of public opinion. Could people have used that “court” to change the course of events? How? • What lessons should people learn from the witchcraft epidemic? How do they apply today?
