Today we are continuing on with Act III.i, studying Hamlet's famous "to be or not to be" soliloquy. We read lines 1-90 yesterday as a class and began to answer questions. Today we will watch this section of the film, review some of the questions from the graphic organizer yesterday, and answer a few more questions as a class. Class will end with a Quick Write in your journals.
