The Scarlet Letter: The Puritan and the Other

Students will utilize many resources and synthesize information they find to create a comprehensive presentation of Puritan ideals, beliefs, and societal structures, while making thoughtful connections to Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter, chapters 1-10.  Students will use their new knowledge of Puritan society along with textual evidence to make predictions regarding the outcome of the text.  Each student is expected to design a technology rich presentation that is both informative and engaging.
