 * 10/6:** Went over the end of Hamlet. Mr. O'leary handed out the Hamlet Essay and rubric for essay. Each student has a copy. They also need to have it double spaced, 14 font, around 500 words or more. Three full pages. Because the font is so large and double spacing, it will be like a page and a half of a normal sized, single spaced paper. They will be doing the writing in class. There will be drafts and conferencing with peers and / or Mr. O'Leary. If they don't finish in class by Thursday Oct 30, they need to finish for Halloween Friday. It must be printed out BEFORE class- not during it. Draft must be stapled to the final copy and a good thesis statement. Remember, they are doing this as mostly an in class project.
