<br />
Close reading of Act I, scene iv of Hamlet and discuss<br />
Work on computers to create 2 interpretive questions and select one important quotation, then write a brief justification for your choices.<br />
<br />
EXAMPLE Level II Author’s Style Question:<br />
In Act I, scene ii, Shakespeare has Claudius describe his marriage in the following way: “With mirth in funeral, and with dirge in marriage, In equal scale weighing delight and dole, Taken to wife”. How does Shakespeare use juxtaposition in these lines to characterize Claudius and Gertrude’s marriage?<br />
<br />
<br />
EXAMPLE Quotation and Justification:<br />
Act I, scene i<br />
<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>BER. Who’s there?<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>This quotation begins the tragedy of Hamlet, and establishes the mysterious tone that pervades the play. Bernardo does not know whether the noise he hears is one of the other guards, or the ghost that they have seen twice. Shakespeare opens this play with a question, signaling to the audience that questions are important throughout the play.<br />

Complete the <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GL5x8symU10mseE-eGMPwJDUcCSJiOvPQ_q6nzWSvJU/edit?usp=sharing">soliloquy handout</a> and work through it at tables--turn in at end of period.<br />
<br />
HW: Review Act I scenes i and ii. For EACH of the two scenes, you’ll write two questions and choose one quotation. For the questions, one needs to be a level II (author’s style) question and one can be a level I or III (something within the play or beyond the play). Then, choose one brief quotation (about three-four lines’ worth, ok if it’s shorter or a chunk of a longer speech) to represent the most important ideas of each scene. Write down the quotation, then a brief justification of why you chose that quotation to represent the scene. You may want to type this assignment as you can use this work in your review sheets that are typically due at the end of studying each work!<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li>How common do you believe the act of revenge is in everyday life? What acts of revenge (small or large) have you observed?</li>
<li>Would you characterize yourself as more of a “thinker” or a “doer”? Do you think your approach is successful? Would you rather be more thoughtful or more decisive?</li>
<li>To what extent do parents have the right to “spy” or check up on their children as they grow up? Give specific examples/boundaries if you can.</li>
<li>How are relationships between step-children and step-parents often depicted in stories and film? What complicates these relationships?</li>
<li>If you could hear a message from someone who has passed away, what would you most like to hear, or who would you like to hear from?</li>
<li>Are parents generally blind to their children’s faults, or over-critical of their children?</li>
<li>Have you ever been the victim of unrequited love? How did you handle (or how do you wish you had handled) that rejection?</li>
<li>Have you ever been the recipient of unwanted attention? How did you handle (or how to you wish you had handled) rejecting someone else?</li>
<li>What are you most looking forward to in reading this play? What questions do you have as we start?</li>
</ol>
<br />
<br />
HW: Bring textbooks to class tomorrow. Pre-read Hamlet, Act I scene i and scene ii, tonight. Read to find out what questions are circulating at the start of the play, what King Claudius asks of Hamlet, and what Horatio and the guards have seen. Consider watching the beginning on YouTube or finding an audiobook to hear it as you read. Watching/listening first then reading really helps!<br />

<br />
Show the video “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ocrgDc6W7Es&t=1s&spfreload=1">Shakespeare--In a Nutshell</a>” and explain that my critical annotation was a writeup of that video. Please have students analyze my directions and <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UpwehV-6U81FzfWd_5gQS9cRQwjNSF0YXMIdrAdD9Mc/edit?usp=sharing">sample</a> to understand how to do this assignment. Then, they may take computers and research Shakespeare’s life and times--they can examine video sources on YouTube, or use traditional web pages. A good place to start is with our library’s databases: <a href="http://www.samohi.smmusd.org/library/index.html">http://www.samohi.smmusd.org/library/index.html</a> , then select “Proquest.” Login is SMMUSDS and password is LIBRARY. Select “SIRS Knowledge Source” and “keyword” search, then enter your search terms, like “Shakespeare’s life and times.” Students may also use traditional search engines like Google. Whatever website or short video they choose, students should summarize the source with key details, assess its credibility and expertise, and reflect on how this adds to their understanding of the topic.<br />
<br />
HW: Finish the critical annotation on Shakespeare’s life and times for Sunday - due to Turnitin.com by 8pm Sunday. Here again is <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UpwehV-6U81FzfWd_5gQS9cRQwjNSF0YXMIdrAdD9Mc/edit?usp=sharing">my sample writeup</a> of the Shakespeare video watched in class; students should select a different source giving information on Shakespeare's life or times.<br />
