Green Eggs & Hamlet:

a.) What do you know about Hamlet, the "Melancholy Dane"?
-To be honest, I don't know anything about Hamlet really due to the fact that I've never read to play or seen any of the movies.
b.) What do you know about "Shakespeare"?
- Shakespeare was a poet and playwright, who published most of his own works. He is most famous for his tragedies, which are considered absolute classics within English literature. Originally, Shakespeare wasn't that popular, but his reputation soared in the 19th century due to Romanticism.
c.) Why do so many students involuntarily frown when they hear the name "Shakespeare"?
-I believe that most students involuntarily do that because they have created a mental block within their minds about how Shakespeare is too hard to even try to figure out, which seems like an excuse to me. Personally, Shakespeare is a difficult topic due to his writing style and various other factors, but it's not impossible and can be enjoyable if you're willing to take the time to understand it.
d.) What can we do to make studying this play an amazing experience we'll never forget?
-We should read or act it out in class in order to get feedback or additional information from not only Dr.Preston, but also my classmates as well.
