This week in our reading, (Act 3 scenes 5-7) we will see one of our favorite characters for the last time. This is the fool. In Shakespeare's writing, he does not explain what happened to him. In various versions there are different explanations. In the show on PBS version that you can click to over on the right, there is a very sad scene that is added to the play--it is not in the original Shakespeare play.
But is it what really happened???
What do you think?
Put your thinking caps on and tell us what you think REALLY happened to the FOOL....
Every different entry you place you can pull one thing from the candy jar in class next week.
