Students in Mrs. Becker's English class are getting crafty with The Crucible! To explore characterization, the students are using textual evidence to create masks for the main characters. One side represents what the character shows the world, while the other reveals what they keep hidden. Very creative! 📚🎨

An action-oriented sports graphic featuring a pirate mascot centered over a basketball court background. The pirate wears a dark blue tricorne hat with gold trim, a black eye patch, and has a stern expression with a dark goatee. Below the mascot, a bold navy blue banner with gold borders displays the text "GO PIRATES!" in a blocky, collegiate-style font. The background shows a polished wooden basketball court, a hoop with a red rim and white net, and a blurred view of a stadium crowd in the distance.
