<p>Ok, I'm a senior and I have now read four 1/2 of Shakespeares play (we only read half of Twelth Night) but I started a new school this year and they hadn't even read one Shakespeare play, is this normal? What is your guy's experience with his works?</p>
<p>I've Read:</p>
<p>Hamlet
Romeo and Juliet
MacBeth
Othello</p>
<p>So far I think that its a tie between Othello and Hamlet that I like the best.</p>
<p>I love Hamlet!</p>
<p>I liked that one for the whole I'm convinced that Hamlet is Bi-Polar because of all of his mood swings, but I like Othello because of Iago and how manipulative that he is</p>
<p>um... I've read all of shakespeare.</p>
<p>I've been in 12 of his plays.</p>
<p>and I've seen around 30 professional performances.</p>
<p>I've done two research papers and a college essay on shakespeare.</p>
<p>Yes, I'm obsessed!</p>
<p>uhm...wow...freak LOL...j/k but wow...</p>
<p>lol, I know. I am a freak.
I've spent every summer since I was 8 doing either workshops or camps.
I've taught shakespeare acting too.</p>
<p>lol, I don't mind being a freak though!</p>
<p>wow...thats crazy I wouldn't have the paitence to do that</p>
<p>at my school we do about 1 a year, except for American Lit. There is also a whole senior year course devoted to studying the remaining plays, etc</p>
<p>Midsummer Night's Dream
Romeo and Juliet
As You Like It
Hamlet
Macbeth
The Taming of the Shrew
The Tempest</p>
<p>In that order, starting in fourth grade.</p>
<p>Wow, your current high school doesn't require a single Shakespeare play? That is kind of weird.</p>
<p>Anyway, in school, we've read:</p>
<p>Romeo and Juliet (8th)
Much Ado About Nothing (9th)
Othello (10th)
Twelfth Night (11th)
Hamlet (12th - later this year)</p>
<p>And we've had to read Shakespeare outside of school, so I've also read Macbeth and The Tempest.</p>
<p>just finished king lear for IB english HL! it was my favourite shakespeare piece yet, but that's not saying much... i'm not a huge fan.</p>
<p>Hamlet (4th/12th)
Romeo and Juliet (4th/9th)
MacBeth (4th/11th)
Midnight Summer's Dream (4th)</p>
<p>Ya, in 4th grade GT we had a Shakespeare Unit.</p>
<p>^_^</p>
<p>^Midnight Summer's Dream? X)</p>
<p>We do one Shakespeare every year. :]</p>
<p>Romeo & Juliet (9th)
Othello (10th)
Henry IV Part I (11th)
Hamlet (12th)</p>
<p>We don't read Macbeth or Midsummer, but a lot of kids read them outside of school.</p>
<p>Lol.........</p>
<p>A Midsummer Night's Dream
Much Ado About Nothing
Antony and Cleopatra
Macbeth
Othello
King Lear</p>
<p>I think we've got Hamlet and The Taming of the Shrew lined up for this year.</p>
<p>Yeah, we've read Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, Macbeth, Taming of the Shrew, and King Lear so far in my high school...</p>
<p>so whats up with this school? Othello was the first one that they had read</p>
<p>Of his works I've only read Richard III and I liked it it a lot.</p>
<p>Romeo and Juliet - 8th grade, but we're supposed to reread it again this year (9th)</p>
<p>I have 12 of his plays, but I only got to read The Merchant of Venice this summer. Once school started, I kind of put Shakespeare aside. I don't have time to read books I like, let alone plays that I read for educational purposes. ;)</p>
<p>I have a Shakespeare quiz tomorrow -- I have to reproduce Hamlet's entire "To be or not be" soliloquy. I just finished memorizing all 33 lines of it... My head hurts.</p>
