Due by November 4th.

[Katherine]

Hamlet is back from his journey and sees someone being buried. He
finds out it's Ophelia and says how much he loved her and how sad he
was. Then he agrees to fight Laertes, but the match is rigged. The
sword that Laertes has is poisoned. In the middle of the battle, the
queen drinks poison that Hamlet was suppose to drink if Laertes didn't
kill him. Hamlet is distracted and Laertes stabs him. They end up
switching swords, and Hamlet stabs Laertes. While he's dying, Laertes
tells Hamlet about the plot to kill him, so Hamlet kills Claudius.
Hamlet tells Horatio he wants his story to be told, then dies.
Fortinbras takes over as king (I don't really get where he came
from...) and sets up a "military funeral" for Hamlet.

Hamlet returns and wants to know whose grave they are digging. When he
finds out it's his loves he freaks and confesses his true love for
her. Laertes and Hamlet agree to battle. Laertes gets hamlet with the
poisoned weapon. The queen drinks the poisoned wine starts to die. In
a tussle they end up switching weapon and Hamlet gets Laertes. While
Laertes is dying he tells hamlet of the king's plan to kill him the
entire time. So Hamlet ends up killing the king also. Which was his
entire mission anyway. Fortinbras the prince of Norway comes and
claims the kingdom. He also brings word that Rosencrantz and
Guildernstern were killed as they were suppose to be.

in act 5 hamlet gets back and wonders who's grave they are digging. he
finds out it was ophelias and he freaks out and tells everyone how
much he really loved her and then he stormed away angrily. then he
agrees to fight with laertes and ends up getting cut from laertes
sword which had poison on it and then hamlet gets that sword and cuts
laertes. so they are both poisoned and end up dying along with
gertrude, Hamlets mother who drank the poison, and claudius the king,
because hamlet stabbed him and made him drink the poison. hamlet says
he doesnt want anyone to kill themselves and wants them to tell his
story. from there on i am kind of confused with who gets king and all
that stuff

Hamlet returns from England because he is turned back. when he returns

drink the rest of the drink. Hamlet knows he is dying as well and
tells Horatio not to kill himself and to live and tell the story and
then Hamlet dies.

[nathan]

Hamlet comes back from his journey and sees someone getting buried. He

[Janae Nibbelink]

Hamlet sees Ophelia's funeral and is challenged by her brother to a
fencing match, to which Hamlet says yes to. The match is rigged and
both Hamlet and Latuarus is wounded by the poisined blade. Laraurs
tells Hamlet off the murder plot before he dies and Hamlet kills
Claudius. His Mother drank from the poisioned cup that was the back up
plan. Before Hamlet dies he tells Horatio to tell his story and says
that Fourtuneabras should bee king. When fourtunabras finds out he
orders a military funeral for Hamlet.

[Chris]

Hamlet comes back from England and sees Ophelia being buried. He goes
to the burial and professes his love for her over the grave. He agrees
to a fencing match with Laertes. Laertes ends up cutting Hamlet with
the poisoned blade. The queen ends up drinking from the poisoned cup
which Hamlet was supposed to drink from. The queen dies. Hamlet ends
up stabbing Laertes after they switch swords. Laertes tells Hamlet of

king. Hamlet dies and Fortinbras gives him a military funeral.

[Nick M]

Hamlet returns and discovers that someone is being buried and he finds
out that it is Ophelia. He says how much he loves her and gets in a
fight with Laertes. They agree to a battle later. This battle is set
up because Laertes and the King rigged it so that Hamlet would die.
The queen dies because she drinks the poisoned wine meant for Hamlet.
Laertes poisoned his sword and got Hamlet and they switched swords
somehow so Hamlet poisoned Laertes. Laertes dies and tells Hamlet the
plan so Hamlet kills the King. Hamlet tells Horatio to tell others
about him. Fortinbras takes over as king and has a special burial for
Hamlet because he says he is the most royal.

[Kayla]

Ophelia is buried. There is a problem though, should she be buried or
not? did she commit suicide? Hamlet finally confesses his love for
Ophelia when he finds out it is here that is getting buried. Does he
really mean it or is he just saying it?

[Brittanee Deeringer]

In Act 5 the queen takes the cup of poison from Hamlet and drinks it
not knowing that it is poison. Hamlet and Laertes are in a fight and
Laerestes gets a good shot at Hamlet and then Hamlet turns around and
does the same to Laertes with the same rapier with the poison. Hamlet
forces the the King to drink the poison. Hamlet tells Horatio who
hasn't let him down and has stuck with him through thick and thin...
to tell others about him after he is dead. After Hamlet dies, Horatio
states "Now cracks a noble hert. Goodnight, sweet prince, and flights
of angels sing thee to thy rest."

[day]

ophillia is a controvercy because did she kill herself or did she die
just because of a freak accident. is so then she can be burried if she
took her own life then she cannot have a christine funeral .

[Joc]

In act 5 Hamlet returns and wonders whose grave their digging. When he
found out that it was Ophelia he became very upset and then he
confessed his love for her. Lateres and Hamlet agree to fence. Laertes
is poisioned by his own posinious sword. The queen dies from the cup,
and then hamlet forced claudius to drink the rest of the wine, and
they both end up dieing.

[Matejka]

Hamlet returns from his voyage and sees a gravedigger digging a hole
then Hamlet finds out it is being dug for Ophelia's grave. He freaks
and starts saying how much he loved her then he fights with Laertes.
The fight put off til later, and the king and Laertes try to rig the
fight so Hamlet will die. The queen drinks a poisoned drink that was
meant for Hamlet and dies, Laertes gets killed by Hamlet then Hamlet
kills the king. Fortinbras takes over as king and gives Hamlet a
burial.

[spenc]

So in this act i think the major themes that are shown are revenge,
deception and betrayl and love. Hamlet finally gets his revenge on
claudius by killing him with the poisoned sword and making him drink
the poison. Claudius decieves his wife and accidentally betrays her
when she drinks the wine and dies. And lastly hamlet shows love when
he finds out that ophelia is dead and he confesses his love for her.

[Adrianne]

Ophelia dies by drowning and it looks like suicide, so they dont know
what type of burial
she should receive. Hamlet returns to Denmark, and agrees to fight
Laertes in a dual.
As a backup plan, Laertes and Claudius say that if Laertes doesnt win
the dual Hamlet,
will drink poisonous wine. During the dual, the Queen drinks the
poisonous wine that Hamlet was
suppose to drink. Hamlet gets distracted and Laertes stabs Hamlet, but
somehow they switch swords
and Hamlet stabs Laertes with the poisonous sword. Laertes tells
Hamlet about the plan to kill him as
he is dying, Hamlet kills Claudious, the queen and Laertes dies. In
the end Hamlet dies as well.
Fortinbras comes and takes over as king, and orders Hamlet to be
carried out like a warrior. What
I dont how Fortinbras gets to just come in and take over!

[Brittany]

Hamlet shows his stages of grief in this act. When he finds out that
ohpelia dies he starts to confess his love for her and he gets really
angry and tells laretes he accepts his duel. Also Claudius shows
cowardness when he puts poison in the drink and lets laretes poison
the sword. Also a major theme in this act is revenge because he
finally gets revenge on claudius.

[Jenn]

Hamlet returns and sees that Ophelia is dead. Laertes and Hamlet get
into a fight about who loves her more. Laertes and Hamlet have a sword
fight. Claudius is out for revenge on Hamlet so they poison Laertes's
sword and has a glass of wine that Hamlet will drink after his first
few hits. Hamlet refuses to drink it. The queen ends up taking the
first drink and ends up dying. While Hamlet isn't paying attention
Laertes stabs him with the poisoned sword. They end up switching
swords and Hamlet stabs Laertes. Laertes then tells Hamlet about
Claudius's revenge to kill him, so Hamlet kills Claudius. Hamlet says
that he wants his story to be told to others right before he died.
Fortinbras says that Hamlet will be carried away like a soldier. He
also takes over as king.

[Dalen]

In this act i think that a couple major themes were shown. Revenge
and love are the two i think were shown. Hamlet finally gets revenge
on Claudius when he kills him but it cost his life but earlier hamlet
finds out that ophelia is dead and he starts to grieve and confess his
love for her. Also i think that claudius and laretes are cowards for
using poison.

[mallory]

Hamlet returns and sees a grave and he hears that it is Ophelia and
then says how much he loved her and tells everyone how sad he is. He
is going to fight Laertes and Laertes sword is poisoned and during
the battle his mom drinks the poison that was for hamlet. laertes
stabs him and they some how switch swords and hamlet stabs him bck.
hamlet kills claudius

[tylern]

I assume that Hamlet's forged document tells the English to kill
Rosencratz and Guildenstern nstead of himself but it seems
unnecessary. He seemed to pick them so that the English would think
they had done something that the king wanted.

[Jesse]

In act 5 Hamlet is back from his venture. He then fights Laertes but
Laertes has a sword with poison. Laertes then stabs Hamlet with the
poisoned sword. Hamlet then gets the poisoned sword then stabs
Laertes and they both die.

[Shelby]

Hamlet sees the king and queen and gravedigger burying Ophelia and he
is very troubled by her death. He agrees to fight Laertes. During the
fight, the queen drinks from the poison cup and dies. Then Laertes
wounds Hamlet and Hamlet also wounds him right after. Laertes
confesses the plan to kill Hamlet. Hamlet forces the king to drink the
poisoned wine so the king dies. Then Laertes dies and Hamlet dies
shortly after that. The last two or three pages really close up all
the loose ends of everyone trying to get revenge on whoever else, but
basically everyone important ends up dying while trying to kill the
other people so it turns out to be pretty pointless.

[Ryan]

Hamlet returns and hears that Ophelia is dead. Then he accepts the
fight with Laertes and during the fight he is wounded with Laertes's
poisened blade. Then Hamlet takes the poisened blade and injures
Laertes. During the fight Hamlet's mother accidently drinks the poison
that Claudius had if Hamlet won the duel. Hamlet's mother dies and
Hamlet forces Claudius to drink the poison. Claudius drinks the poison
and dies and Laertes dies also. Later Hamlet dies.

[Trevor]

In Act 5 Hamlet returns from his tip and notices someone being buried
in the distance but can't find out or discover who it is. He figures
out it is Ophelia and confesses his love for her and goes through a
lot of grief. He then goes and fights Laertes who has rigged the fight
in order to in the end kill Hamlet. Laertes poisons a sword and even
the slightest wound will kill Hamlet. The queen drinks the poisen in
the fight, and while Hamlet is trying to tell his mother what she is
drinking is poison, he is stabbed by Laertes. Then Hamlet stabs
Laertes and Laertes, before he dies, tells of the plot by Cladius to
kill him and Hamlet kills Cladius.

[racheal]

The King and Laertes make a plan to kill Hamlet.

Hamlet sends letters to Horatio and to the King
that tell of his return and his plan of revenge. He comes
back and the first thing he finds out is that Ophelia has
drowned herself. He then tells everyone how he once loved
her, which makes Laertes even more mad at him. (Laertes
also wants revenge on him for killing his father)

Hamlet finds the plans from the King adn Laertes that
tell about their plot to kill him and he goes along with it.
Hamlet is summoned by Orsic to a fencing match with
Laertes and the bloodbath begins. The queen dies first
when making a toast to Hamlet.(she drinks the drink
that was meant for Hamlet). Then Hamlet finally gets
his chance to kill the King and does, by making him drink
poison that killed his mom. Then Laertes dies, but asks for
forgiveness from hamlet. Then Hamlet dies, but tells
Horatio that Fortinbras should be the new Danish King.

[Jess]

When Hamlet tells Ophelia that he doesn't lover her, I feel that was
anger, not his insanity. His view of women has been destroyed by his
motehr marrying Claudius and he doesn't want to be hurt by her. When
he finds out she's dead, I think this snaps him of out his act of
being insane. I think even though he doesn't day it, he feels very
guilty about her death because it was pretty much his fault that she
died.
Hamlet does try to apologize to Laertes, even though he doesn't really
accept it. But when Laertes is about to die I think he sees Claudius
real side and that's why he tells Hamlet of their plan, and also
because he knows how much it hurts to have to want revenge that much.
Horatio again proves himself as a loyal character and probably the
most loyal and saniest. Throughtout everything he never turned his
back on Hamlet, but he never got all crazy either. This shows that
there is some sanity.
The Fortinbras thing was kinda random. Didn't really get it.

[Amanda Dunnick]

I don't really understand why they wouldn't give Ophelia a proper
Christan burial. Now a days, they would really no matter what.

[sharp]

Hamlet comes back and see Ophelia being buried and freaks out. He then
fights laertes which the battle is not fair because his sword has
poison on it to kill Hamlet, but there swords are switched and Hamlet
kills Laertes. His mom then drinks the poison that was for hamlet then
he kills claudius and dies after telling horatio his story. He is then
given a military funeral.

[Angel K.]

Hamlet gets back sees a burial and finds out it was Ophelia. Laertes
and Hamlet have agreed to fight and Laertes' sword has poison on it.
Hamlet stabs Laertes. Hamlet had poisoned the queens drink but makes
Claudius drink it and dies. Fortinbras has taken over kings now.

[Ed]

Basically what happens is everyone fights and ends up dying. Claudius
finally gets killed by hamlet and laertes also gets killed by him in a
dual with a poisonous sword. Hamlet also gets killed by this sword.
Gertrude gets killed by the king because he poisons the drink that she
drinks out of.

[Freese]

hamlet comes back from his journey. he finds out they are burring
opheila. laretes and him battle. they make one sword poison and also
some poisonous wine. the queen drinks the wine dies. hamlet gets cut
by the sword starts to die. he injures larates and kills him with the
sword and then he kills the king with the sword and makes him drink
the wine. finally hamlet has redemption on his fathers name. hamlet
then dies and tells horatio to tell everyone his story and make this
known.

[morgan jo]

Ophelia drowns, they think that it was suicide. Hamlet decides to
fight Laertes. Gertrude drinks the wine that was intended for Hamlet
that contained poison. She dies, and then hamlet kills Claudius.
Laertes also also dead.

[jacy]

I don't understand why they wouldn't give Ophelia a proper burial.
Back in their time I guess I get why, but today they would. It's
common courtesy but times have changed. I think when Hamlet tells
Ophelia he isn't in love with her anymore, he's lying. I think that he
really does but his relationships with others is being ruined.

[Mr. Slave]

So Hamlet comes back from England with some what of revenge. Laertes
and and hamlet exchange swords during a little tumble and laertes ns
up stabbing Hamlet, the Hamlet kill Laertes with the poisonous sword.
After that He kills claudius. After killing Claudius he dies. Hamlet
ends up hetting a military funeral from the new king.

[alicia]

Hamlet comes back because the ship wrecked. He finds out that they are
digging a grave for Ophelia...he confesses his love for her and he
battles leartes and he gets hamlet with a poisened weapon. All in all
Cladius,Hamlet,The queen, and leartes die.

[Treye]

in chapter V hamlets true feelings come out for his love for ophelia
and shows that he truely did care for her to the end. The polt to kill
hamlet was very low and dirty and well thought out but had flaws which
led to everyones death.

[bpaterni]

Hamlet kills Claudius and gets his/his father's revenge, yaaahh! I
don't see what's so heroic about this though because power just shifts
from one jerk to the next. Claudius >>> Fortinbras

[shuey]

Hamlet sees that Ophelia is being buried and he is sad because he
loved her so much.
