11/10/08--Happy Veterans' Week!

Hey everyone! I hope you all had a great weekend!

Today in class we read Act III.
  • We discovered that Hamlet's mouse trap worked!
  • We also now know that Claudius is just as confused as Hamlet (he cannot repent for what he has done, nor can he give away what he has gained...but he is a religious man, so why did he murder?).
  • Hamlet kills Polonius and he must leave and go to England. (Now there are 3 dead fathers...)
Homework:
  • Nothing is due on Wednesday, however, start thinking about your thesis statements which are due next week (Friday)
  • If you have a conference with Smith, do not miss it!
  • Remember, PLC (and food!) on Wednesday!

Fun Fact of the Day:
The only dog to appear in a play by William Shakespeare is Crab who is owned by Launce in 'The Two Gentlemen Of Verona'...Maybe Hamlet would be happier if he had a dog...
