  1. Hamlet Sarcasm Workshop

  2. Labeling • Make a key at the top of the person’s paper using your highlighters • Sample: • Green=Statement • Pink=Proof • Yellow=Commentary • Label the topic sentence (TS) • Label the transition at the end (TR) • Highlight statement, proof, and commentary using your key

  3. Evaluate Your Claim (Statement) • Does it connect Hamlet’s use of sarcasm to the characterization of Hamlet? • What do we know about Hamlet because of his sarcastic statements?

  4. Evaluate Connections • Draw a line between the first quote’s commentary and the claim (statement). Evaluate if you have made this connection in your commentary. • If yes, draw a check mark next to the line • If no, draw and “x” on the line. • Repeat with your second (and third, etc) quote • Only draw a check mark if the connection is clear and explicit. I should not need to take a leap of faith to get where you are going.

  5. Get Rid of Summary • Cross out all instances of summary. • Summary should only be EXTREMELY BRIEF to provide context (background) to quotes. • Example: In act I, scene ii, just after Hamlet greets Horatio, Hamlet makes the sarcastic comment, “Thrift, thrift, Horatio. The funeral baked meats did coldly furnish forth the marriage tables” (172-173). • “just after Hamlet greets Horatio” gives context but does not waste space with summary

  6. Peer Review On the back of your partner’s paper offer another quote for this section/evaluate their third quote if one is used. Explain how your proposed quote/their third quote will add/does add to the overall section.

  7. Self-Evaluation • Re-read your paragraph(s) and your reviewers comments • Now that you have gone through the workshop, ask yourself, “How well did I do? What can I do better?” • On the TOP of your paper, give yourself a score from 1-10 telling me how well written you believe your paragraph was. • Next to the score, make notes of what you need to revise in order to strengthen it • Turn in your paragraph(s)

  8. Peer Review • Remember to fill out the claim area at the top of the page • Remember to offer a quote/evaluate third quote in that last section.
