Slide 17 - Diapositive
You can also ask students to read the text first and then correct it to make it easier to read.
The original text is over 330 years old and Tituba did not have an education, so sometimes the structure and word choice seem odd for modern readers.
Reading the text aloud (practise beforehand) will also help students follow what's going on.
Have students focus on the orange questions on the board.
This document is not very trustworthy starting with the possible torture during the testimony. This practice was actually quite common.
