Hey! I'm spending this week at an AP English conference in Morehead, Kentucky. Today one of the pieces of literature we looked at was the famous "To be or not to be" soliloquy from Hamlet and it made me think of our summer reading. All incoming seniors should be reading The Stranger and typing your essay to hand in on the first day of school. AP students should also be reading Hamlet and watching a film version.
The famous speech in Prince Hamlet's words illustrate a crucial moment in his life. He's been dealt some serious blows and is struggling, for sure. In fact, I think he seems lost in a maze of questions. We'll analyze the monologue together in class. I hope you are getting excited about school starting back up. For you seniors, it will be "the beginning of the end!" Happy reading...
