Students will learn to analyze, understand, and write about a chosen character from William Shakespeare's classic work Hamlet. 

I have master's degrees in history, professional writing, and human services counseling. Other than having studied Shakespeare and other classic literature, plays, and poetry in my own higher education and/or on my own over the course of many years, I also teach my own high schoolers how to understand, interpret, and appreciate Shakespeare in our homeschool. I teach several critical analysis (including character analysis) classes via Outschool. For our homeschooling co-op, I teach middle schoolers and high schoolers how to examine classic and current poetry and literature as well as history. Classic literature and poetry are my passion. 

提供的家庭作業
Each week, students will have a reading or writing assignment. In weeks one through five, students will be required to read one act of Hamlet to discuss during that week's class time.  In week six, students will be required to write an outline.  In week seven, students will be required to finish a rough draft and revise this draft into a final, three to five-page character analysis essay for presentation and discussion during week eight's class time.
