Reflection on The Crucible Essay

Reflection on the Crucible Essay
In my crucible essay I wrote about Abigail William and how Arthur Miller portrayed her. I told about the way she acted and the trouble that she caused. In this essay i was trying to compare Abigail to an ipod and find similarities and differences between her and the ipod. The main idea of this piece was to show how evil Abigail was and how that could relate to an ipod. I had to really think when i was writing this because it is hard to think of ways that an ipod is used for evil. I had to think differently than i usually do but in the end i came up with several similarities. I have learned a lot about writing in this class. I learned that i need to use more descriptive words and make things interesting but stay on topic at the same time. This was probably my favorite writing that we have done in this class so far.
When i went back to revise this piece I wrote more about Abigail and less about the ipod. I told why i thought Arthur Miller portrayed her the way she did and discussed her character more in depth. In Holt's' piece he compares John Proctor to a potato and has many good things to say. He said that a potato is a plant that grows from the ground and John is a farmer who works on land a lot. In Emily Anna's crucible essay she compared Abigail Williams to a head band. She said that when you look at a head band it doesn't seem like it could harm someone but it could just like Abigail. From these classmates i found out how they compared things to their characters in a different way that i probably would not have thought of.
