Read this excerpt from The Miracle Worker Act 2. (She drops her eyes to spell into HELEN’S hand, again indicating the card; HELEN spells back, and ANNIE is amused.) KATE [TOO QUICKLY]: What did she spell? ANNIE: I spelled card. She spelled cake! (She takes in KATE’S quickness and shakes her head, gently.) No, it’s only a finger game to her, Mrs. Keller. What she has to learn first is that things have names. KATE: And when will she learn? ANNIE: Maybe after a million and one words. (They hold each other’s gaze; KATE then speaks quietly.) KATE: I should like to learn those letters, Miss Annie. What does the dialogue reveal about Kate? She is strict with Helen’s discipline. She is hopeful that Helen can be taught. She is unwilling to assist with Helen’s learning. She is proud of Helen’s ability to spell correctly.
