- Go though the Salem Witch Trials yourself!
National Geographic: Salem Witchcraft Hysteria
http://www.nationalgeographic.com/salem/Read the prologue on the site. Then “Experience the Trials.” If you click on the characters whose names in white and underlined, it will give you information about the book. Read about the characters and report briefly in a written chart about the similarities and differences between history and the play, or the new information you learned about each person. When you are ready to move onto each new little section of the story, you will normally have to click on the word or phrase that is written in red and underlined. After this, write about your experience in the trial. Then, you may take a couple minutes to look at the other links about Salem on this site.
