Dear Teaching Companion,
I just want to thank you for your amazing teaching guides.  I have now used four of them, and I couldn't be more pleased.  They have probably saved me hundreds of hours by now, and, maybe more importantly, I have never had so much fun teaching.

Naomi Keene
Buffalo, NY
 

Over the past two months, I have noticed a dramatic change in my life.  I finally have time in the evening to relax.  This is no small thing.  Since I started teaching two years ago, I haven't been able to say that very often.

I owe this dramatic change to your teaching guides, which allowed me to leave my work at work.  I have taught my last two units using your guides, and I have been supremely pleased with the results.  My students are learning, I am having fun, and, perhaps most importantly, I am spending much more time on my personal life.

Thank you for making this possible.

Susan
 

My Husband and I want to thank you for making our lives immeasurably easier!

We are both secondary school English teachers, and before we started using your teaching guides we were in a bit of trouble.  Our evenings were completely dominated by all of the prepping and marking that come with teaching English.  Now, with your help, we have way more free time and are way less stressed.

I am not exaggerating when I say that your teaching guides may have saved our marriage.

Thank you,

Alicia and Brian

Important Characters in The Crucible

In Order of Appearance

Reverend Samuel Parris is the poorly respected minister of Salem's church in The Crucible. He is disliked by many Salem residents because of his greedy, dominating nature. The man is more concerned about his reputation than of the wellbeing of his sick daughter, Betty. He is also less concerned about his missing niece, Abigail Williams, and the lives of the dead and condemned on his conscience and more about the money taken. He is related to the history of Salem— in real life his niece and daughter were the first to accuse others of witchcraft and he owned the slave, Tituba, who was the first to be accused of witchcraft and who survived prison.

Tituba is Rev. Parris' slave. Parris seems to have owned and possibly purchased her in Barbados. She cares for the children and prepares a potion for Abigail that will kill Elizabeth Proctor. Additionally, she attempts to raise the spirits of Ann Putnam's dead children. During the first scene of the play, she is turned in by Abigail and responds by claiming that four women in Salem are witches. She is not seen again until the final scene of the play in the jail. It seems that by this point the events have troubled her to the point of hallucinations and hysteria.

Abigail Williams is Parris' niece. She is 17 years old in The Crucible play and during the trials. Abigail was once the maid for the Proctor house, but Elizabeth Proctor fired her after she discovered that Abigail was having an affair with her husband, John Proctor. Abigail and her uncle's slave, Tituba, lead the local girls in love-spell rituals in the Salem forest over a fire. Rumors of witchcraft fly, and Abigail tries to use the town's fear to her advantage. She viciously accuses many of witchcraft, starting first with the outcasts of society and gradually moving up to respected members of the community. Finally, she accuses Elizabeth Proctor, because she believes that John truly loves her and not Elizabeth. Abigail thinks that if Elizabeth is out of the way, she and John can marry. John says in the play that Abigail "hopes to dance with me upon my wife's grave." She is manipulative and dramatic, as well as darkly charismatic. She attacks anyone who stands in her way (i.e. Mary Warren, Goody Proctor), regardless of who they are. She later flees Salem during the trials and, according to legend, becomes a prostitute in Boston.

Ann Putnam is the wife of Thomas Putnam. She has one daughter, Ruth, but has had seven miscarriages. She is a twisted soul of forty-five. Ann is accusatory and harsh to many, but also very hurt by the deaths of her babies.

Thomas Putnam lives in Salem village and owns a bit of land close to Giles Corey. Giles accuses him of trying to steal it, and says that Putnam got his daughter to accuse Giles' wife of witchcraft. This possibility is strongly supported by the play, and thus Putnam is one of The Crucible's true villains.

Betty Parris is the nine-year-old daughter of the Salem villages' Reverend Samuel Parris and was the first to become ill after being "bewitched" as most people thought. She said that Abigail drank blood to kill Elizabeth Proctor. Betty was seen in Act I and III of The Crucible .

Mary Warren serves as housemaid for the Proctors after Abigail Williams. The Crucible portrays her as a lonely girl who considers herself an "official of the court" at the beginning of the trials. John Proctor abuses her and hits her with a whip. She nearly confesses that she and the other girls were lying about witchcraft until the other girls pretend that she is sending out her spirit upon them in the courtroom. This event, which could have led to her death, propels her to accuse John Proctor of witchcraft and to state that he forced her to lie about herself and the others.

John Proctor is a down-to-earth, forthright farmer. He tries to be a decent husband and citizen but he is no saint. He had a sexual relationship with Abigail Williams when she was a servant at the farm. He does not attend church as often as he should, which is shown when he cannot easily recite the Ten Commandments. Although he speaks his mind and stands up to Parris, he has no wish to be a martyr and he is careful about what he says when he senses real danger. He does show courage and boldness in his opposition to Parris and Putnam and he fiercely resists the arrest of his wife. Proctor is cautious when it comes to denouncing Abigail, particularly when his wife, claiming to be pregnant, is not in immediate danger. However, he feels he owes it to his accused friends to expose Abigail as a liar. He works hard to build a defense for those accused and manages to persuade Mary Warren to tell the truth, but this success is short-lived. As a last resort, he suffers the public shame of confessing to his adultery with Abigail to no avail. In prison, he eventually confesses so that he can live with and care for his family, but finally he decides to die rather than lose his good name and admitting to witchcraft; he thus refuses to sign the paper. He does this for the sake of his children's future reputation and because of the example of Elizabeth and others who have refused to confess. He will not deny himself. He has doubted his ability to be a good man so far, but with Elizabeth's example and support he realizes he can be true to himself and accept death.

Reverend John Hale is a well-respected minister reputed to be an expert on witchcraft. Reverend Hale is called in to Salem to examine the witchcraft trials and Parris's daughter Betty, who has fallen into a mysterious illness after being discovered participating in the suspect rituals. He originally believes that there are witches in Salem and advocates the trials, but later realizes the widespread corruption and abuse of the trials, and struggles to convince accused "witches" to lie by confessing and live, rather than to tell the truth and die. (Secondary Lead. 330 lines) Elizabeth Proctor John Proctor's wife, and a resident of Salem. She is accused of witchcraft, and is only saved from death due to the fact that she is pregnant. Abigail hates her for being Proctor's wife, and for keeping Proctor's heart. By the end of the play she feels that Proctor's affair is due to her own faults, much to Proctor's dismay.

Deputy Governor Thomas Danforth is a pretentious and selfish judge, who is extremely loyal to the rules and regulations of his position. Public opinion and his acute adherence to the law are most important to him. He seems to secretly know that the witch trials in Salem are all a lie yet will not release any of the prisoners because he is afraid of being viewed as weak and having his theocratic reputation undermined. When Proctor knowingly defies his authority by refusing to lie and sign a public confession saying that he is guilty of witchcraft and accusing others, Danforth immediately sentences him to hang along with the other prisoners including Rebecca Nurse.

What Teachers Who Know Are Saying...

Thank you so much for the guide on teaching The Crucible.  I can't believe how easy teaching can be when you have everything planned and organized for you.

Sincerely,

Andrea Byrne

Thanks again for all the help.  I'm not sure I could have survived this semester without you.

Leslie Kershaw, Cherry Hill NJ

Your guide made teaching The Crucible enjoyable and remarkably easy.

Thanks

Ryan Angus

Thanks for all your help!  Teaching The Crucible was never my favorite, but your plan made it so easy it was incredible.  I was really pleased with my purchase from Teaching Resources, and I will return for more resources in the future.

Mason

I appreciate your lesson plans so much.  Thank you for making them available.

Brianna Gomm

Dear Sir or Madame

I would like to thank you for making a tough semester bearable.

For the past few months I have been dealing with lots of adversity in my personal life.  I haven't had enough time to plan for my classes as I normally would.  Your plan for teaching The Crucible took care of all the planning for two of my classes.

Your lesson plans were excellent, and I was amazed at the variety of activities, worksheets, and assignments included with the teaching guide.

Your guide helped me get through a difficult time, and I now have a plan I can use for the rest of my career whenever I am teaching The Crucible.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Julia Hunter 
 

A great teaching guide.  I look forward to using your resources in the future.

thanks

Brock Russell

Thanks for answering my questions.  Your teaching resources are very helpful.  Over the past four months I have used three of your teaching guides, and I must admit that I have never been happier as a teacher.  I'm spending more time relaxing with my family, and less time slaving away on lesson plans.

Thanks for all your help.

Sasha Singer
Burlington, VT

My wife asked my to write you to say thanks.  I have been able to spend way more time with her and our two kids this year because of your teaching guides.

Thanks from the Websters

I use a lot of digital resources for teaching, and I just want to let you know how pleased I am with your teaching guides.

It is so nice to be able to instantly access a complete unit plan with a calendar, daily lessons, worksheets, answer keys, etc.  I think this is the way education needs to move - with teachers sharing resources with each other to ensure the best possible experience for teachers and students.

Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for the great material.

Alan Blake

Thanks again for all the help.  I'm not sure I could have survived this semester without you.

Leslie Kershaw, Cherry Hill NJ

As a first-year teacher, I really appreciate the Teaching Companion resources.  It is so nice to be able to download a complete teaching guide in mere moments, and have everything I need to walk into a classroom and conduct a full month of lessons.

I have recommended your teaching resources to every teacher in my department, and I assure I will be back for more teaching guides in the near future.

Thanks again

Anne Tamboline
 

Thank you so much for the amazing unit plan.  You must be a great teacher.

 Susan Whitley

Thanks for making teaching fun again!  Your unit plans have really turned things around for me in the last few months.

I honestly haven't had this much free time in years.  I come home and actually get to spend time with my family instead of prepping all night.

Thank you

Sincerely

John Watt
Oak Bay Secondary
 

I am writing simply to say thank you for creating such  comprehensive teaching guides.  Your resources have literally saved my career.

Thank you so much.

Diane Montgomery

These are amazing lesson plans.  I love finding ways to make my classes more fun and engaging for my students, and your lessons did exactly that.

I was especially impressed with the detail in the daily lesson plans that come with your complete unit plans.  The step-by-step instructions made everything so easy.

Thanks again,

Lesley Singer

Hey, just wanted to say thanks for the lesson plans, and thanks for answering my questions so quickly.

Trisha Lambert

Thank you for all your help!  I'm not sure I could have made it through this school year without you.  My personal life was really hectic for the past few months, and I had no time for prepping.  Your unit plans let me come to work knowing I had everything down and ready to go without having to spend hours on it at night.

I will gladly recommend your resources to other teachers.

Sincerely

Elisa Nightingale
 

Hello, I recently bought your Shakespeare Package and I am happy to report that it was everything I hoped for.  Keep up the good work.

Josh Benet

I'm so glad I found these resources.  I am a new teacher and I can't tell you how important it is to have access to curriculum designed by professionals who have been doing this for more than two years.

Thank you

Ainsley Zimmerman
 

Thanks for responding to my email so quickly.  I'm really happy with the teaching guide, and with your service.  Do you have any other guides you can recommend?

Patty Ming

I love teaching, but sometimes it can be incredibly demanding.  I got tired of staying up until 1am prepping for my next day. 

Then I discovered Teacher's Companion.  Your Teaching Guides helped me break the cycle.  I could finally relax and spend time with my family at home and come to class knowing that my lessons were planned, my handouts were ready, and my curriculum was sound. 

I would recommend these Teaching Guides to new and old teachers alike.

Dale Earnshaw 

Thank you so much for the amazing unit plan.  You must be a great teacher.

 Susan Whitley

Hey there people over at Teaching Companion, Just want to say thanks for the amazing teaching guides!

I bought the 12-plan package, and I have already used three of the plans.  They are truly great teaching resources.  I've added a few things here and there, but for the most part I follow the plans as they are laid out, and I must say that I have never felt better about my teaching practice.

Thanks again for a great service.

Andrea Dalton
 

Top grades for your teaching guides.

Sarah West

Thanks for the high-quality resources.  I haven't bought many things online, and I was sceptical, but ultimately I have been very please and impressed with these materials.

I will return to your site next semester to see what you might be able to help me with then.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Blanchet

Okay, thanks for answering my questions so quickly.  And again, I really appreciate your teaching guides.

Brent Bishop

Many thanks for your help and guidance.  I am new to the game and need all the help I can get.

Your teaching guide allowed me to focus on building rapport with students instead of planning lessons day and night.

This is a great service for beginners like me.

And like Arny said, "I'll be back!"

Brad Copeland
 

A great teaching guide.  I look forward to using your resources in the future.

thanks

Brock Russell

Dear Teaching Companion,
I am writing to thank you for providing such a vital service for teachers.

I retired from teaching two years ago after twenty-three years at the secondary level.  But I have recently returned to the classroom as a substitute for English teachers on extended absences (two weeks or more).  I had long-ago given away the bulk of my resources, so I found it necessary to either create new ones, something I did not relish, or find an alternative.  Your teaching guides provided that alternative.

I have now used three of your guides, and I am continually pleased with their quality.  I think teachers too often spend countless hours trying to reinvent the wheel when they could simply stand on the shoulders of their colleagues.  It does not matter whether your lesson and activity is entirely original; what matters is to what extent it enlightens and educates the students.

In any case, thank you for helping an old man who still loves to teach but hasn't the energy to plan.

Bob Leavy
Cambridge, Massachusetts

Great teaching guide.  And thanks for answering my questions so quickly.

Robert Dunn

Excellent lesson plans!  I have used two of your teaching guides, Romeo and Juliet, and To Kill a Animal Farm.  Both were great. 

I think my favourite lesson of all was the intro to Romeo and Juliet with the secret messages activity.  That grabbed the students and seemed to put them in the right frame of mind for the entire unit.

Thanks a bunch.

Don Sheldon

I appreciate your lesson plans so much.  Thank you for making them available.

Brianna Gomm

Brock Russell

Hey,
I just want to say thank you for the excellent teaching guides.  I am a new teacher and frequently find myself searching through piles of free lessons on the web.  Your teaching guides are great because they have everything in one place.  I'm pretty sure I could put something together myself, but it would take hours and hours of searching, and even then, it wouldn't be as good as your one of your guides.

Andy Higgins
 

My wife asked my to write you to say thanks.  I have been able to spend way more time with her and our two kids this year because of your teaching guides.

Thanks from the Websters

Dear Sir or Madame

I am writing to thank you for your help.

Your teaching guide was exactly what I needed.  I followed your daily lesson plans and found that everything went smoothly.  I also appreciate your quick responses to my questions.

Thank you

Sincerely

Lillian Rose Lister
 

Excellent teaching guide.  I will definitely check your site for my next unit.  I love teaching, and I don't mind doing some work at home, but I don't have time to plan everything from scratch.

Thank you
