Happy Birthday, William Shakespeare

Though school is not in session right now (April break), I'm going to celebrate William Shakespeare's birthday by reading one of his plays. I've read about fifteen or sixteen of his plays, and I really want to read all 37 plays before I go the way of King Lear or Lady Macbeth.

We may have some time to have a little post-birthday celebration for the Bard when we return to school, but if you're anxious to celebrate Shakespeare's birthday on his (supposed) actual birthday, here are some tips/ ideas from about.com: Shakespeare.

Or, you can check out how others around the globe are celebrating Shakespeare's birthday this year. Add your own pic and Shakespeare celebration story to show others around the globe how you honored this great poet today!
