Reactions to the Henry IV unit

1. What person in the play do you know best?
2. With whom do you identify?
3. What did you learn about yourself in doing Henry IV, Part 1?
4. What do you think of this play in comparison with other Shakespeare plays you have read?
5. What did you think of the way we studied this play?
6. What did you think of doing the reading journal on the blog? (Keep in mind that you still would have done a reading journal if we hadn’t used the blog – you just would have done it on paper.)
7. What suggestions would you make for this unit?
