Act I feedback

Thank you all for contributing. Consider the questions for Act I closed. Everyone who wrote took the writing seriously so there was no need for me to assess the seriousness of your responses. If you answered all three of the questions I have awarded you full credit. 

From your answers, I also learned that most of your parents give pretty good advice.  Make sure you listen to them.  Laertes is going to get in a lot of trouble later in the play ... partially because he does not follow his father's wisdom.

Couple of warnings:

1. 3 students in this class fell behind on the blog and lost points.  You know who you are... please redeem yourself in the future.  I will check the questions for Acts 2 and 3 later this week, so be careful not to fall behind.
2. In other classes there were some nameless entries. Don't lose points this way.
3. In English, "advice" is a collective noun which means that it can not take a plural form.  So, your father can give you lots of advice through out your life or perhaps he gave you an important piece of advice last night ... but he can't give you "advices."  Got it?

Keep up the good work,

-Mr. Paul
