Guilty: to be or not to be, that is the question

Dear students, you have all carried out your different tasks quite well, since you have:

• expressed your views on the story and the video
• shared links with us of Lamb to the Slaughter pictures and films
• shared links with us of Roald Dahl's stories

First of all, I would like to thank you for your participation, I hope that you are all enjoying this unit. Let me share with you some of the pictures which some of you have found:

Now that we know what Ms Mary Maloney did to her husband, let's think about what took place next. Do you believe that the policemen did a good job? Was Mary much more clever than them or not? You can answer both questions by giving your own opinion in comments below or by voting in the surveys that appear on the right side of the blog.

P.S.: Have a look at both pictures. Which one do you like the most? Look at the second picture and the letter that appear: they form the word betrayal. Do you know what does betrayal mean? Think about other situations that take place in the story related to human feelings and human behavior.
