Shakespeare...

9th Grade: What comes to your mind when you hear the words, "Now we're going to read Shakespeare!" Do you cringe in fear? Do you giggle with glee? What past experiences have you had with Shakespeare to make you react the way you do?

I have never read Shakespeare but my cousin has. She was in Mrs. Pullmans class last year so she told me alot of what they did. She made it sound sort of hard, but I think I will do well.

I'm acually kind of excited to read Shakespeare because I don't even know the whole story of Romeo and Juliet. I am a little worried that I won't be able to understand the way he speaks for the first little bit.

As I've said before, I have never read or learned about any of Shakespeare's plays are books. I have only heard of them.
