You have dissected and distilled Shakespeare for four years of high school. Now, it is time to see if you truly understand what makes Shakespeare, ‘Shakespeare.’ Craft a tragedy of your own that, upon careful analysis by a scholar, would be considered not only heavily influenced by Shakespeare, but might even be considered a modern incarnation of The Bard himself. To those ends, the assessment for Hamlet asks you to produce a dramatic product (play, film, cartoon, comic book, opera, ballet, other?) that demonstrates the thematic elements of the play, incorporates the language of the play, and employs traditional Shakespearean dramatic devices. This is not a modern retelling of Hamlet or a shortened version. It is inspired by Hamlet, much in the way Shakespeare was inspired by his forbearers and contemporaries.

Students are to do further research on a topic of their choice in the field of Astronomy. They can present their findings in any manner they wish as long as it is first approved by the teacher.
