Instructional Ideas
- Rather than using the lecture format, ask groups to research and prepare presentations on Romanticism, Transcendentalism, and Puritanism, and then as a class, create a matrix that compares the key tenets of each philosophy
Classroom Considerations
- Carefully consider the implications of the letter project before using it as an activity; just as Hester must bear the scrutiny of her community, so must your class
Pros
- The 15-page packet includes lecture notes, activities, and discussion questions
Cons
- None
