Hamlet: Mind Fields and "The Effects of This Good Lesson Keep" Due: Periods 2 & 3 2/7; Periods 5, 6, & 7 2/8

The Minds of Hamlet and Claudius

Now that you've met these two characters, draw graphic representations of the mind of each on separate pages AFTER the 1.2 log. Include their character traits, how you see their minds working, feelings (attitude/tone words), and at least three 3 quotes that you think truly capture them. (you should draw them as you wish, symbols, anything that is clear and representative, use tone words and character traits that you believe dominate their thinking)

Read and Complete Log 1.3

Meet The Other Family

Paraphrase in modern language and compose a script in modern colloquial (yes, familiar) language of this scene. 

Reflect: What are your opinions of Polonius, Ophelia, Laertes? Who are they? what does each want? What values and beliefs do they express in their language and interactions? If you're Ophelia, how would you feel living in this home? How is her situation different than Hamlet's? Compare and contrast this family to Hamlet's past and current families.

Include these AFTER your 1.3 logs.
