Chickens + Shakespeare + Post-it Notes = FTW1,000

While presumably looking for pictures for your To Be or Not To Be and What is a man/My Thoughts Be Bloody, a few of you found these Post-it Note looking comics online.



If you researched a little bit, you would have found they come from an internet comic called Savage Chickens. They don't just do cartoons about Shakespeare, but about all kinds of stuff. However, in honor of you completing a semester of British Lit (and ending Hamlet), I present the following:

Another dose of awesome: Animaniacs do Hamlet

When I posted the Greatest MacBeth Clip on YouTube EVER, I lol'd and thought "Wow, those cartoons awesomely did an adaption of Shakespeare. There is no way to improve that."

Presenting, Hamlet and Yorick...

Last BritLit homework before the break: Grading your PBL groups

It's been a long time, but I think we're finally ready to debut our awesome Middle Ages PBL poster. Once I get a look at it all together and finally look at all your pieces (which I've nearly done), I'll give you your points, which will (hopefully) be worth a solid letter grade. Included in that grade, though, should be some sort of self-evaluation, how you think your group worked.

Therefore, please, by next Sunday (11/27), for both the A-Day and B-Day classes, please do this group member review once for each member of your group. It looks long, but it's pretty easy, and just multiple choices. This IS anonymous, so don't try to make a group member who hasn't helped you out into a helpful person.
