Final Project/The Crucible

General Instructions: This project will be given a major grade for the six week grading period. You should also keep in mind that part of the purpose of this project is to have a "FINISHED" piece of writing to put in your portfolio. On some projects you may work in pairs or groups, but you must get my approval first, and the length and size of the project must be adapted accordingly. Also, each person must have a copy in his or her portfolio. All papers must be typed, double-spaced using a 10-12 point font. (I prefer Times, New York or Bookman).
