Because of the fire drill at the end of 2nd period today we did not get to listen to the last 8 minutes of the show.  I highly recommend listening to the end of it.  You can find the entire show by clicking here or on the link below.  Scan ahead to about the 50 minute mark.

I look forward to our conversation about it.  Have a great weekend!

Hamlet - Food for thought

Now that we are at the end of our reading and watching of Hamlet it is time for you to gather your thoughts about the play.  To help with that I've gather these questions from a variety of internet sources.  Feel free to browse through them and make use of one, or part of one, for your essay, or to create and answer a question of your own.

Also, remember your essay will be in the form of one of the three remaining categories from the list of the four I gave to you at the start of the year.

If you want to conference about your essay, please email me to arrange that.

Hamlet - Act 3, scenes 3 & 4

We'll start today with a short writing about the developments in Act 3, scenes 3 and 4.
Please go to this document and follow the directions.

Also, just to try out a new format (for this class - I'm guessing many of you have used it already) I'll ask you to complete this as a new document in your Google Drive.  When you are finished, or as you create it, simply "share" it with me.  *Please be sure to give me the ability to comment.  That way, I'll be able to read and respond to it electronically.
