Profiling Gatsby

November 6, 2015

E.Q: Evaluate the progression of Gatsby's character throughout the Great Gatsby.
Obj: I can evaluate Jay Gatsby and identify characteristics about him in the novel.

Starter:

Free Write Friday

Write a 1/2 page, double-spaced entry for your free write.
You may write about whatever is on your mind, or respond to the prompt below.

I made a set of 60 writing prompts about The Great Gatsby. These are a few (well, a few more) of those.

Activity:

1.  Gatsby Facebook Profile

With a partner, you both are responsible for creating a Facebook for Jay Gatsby.
Use information from chapters 1-6.

The profile must include:

A Profile Picture

Status Update

Basic Information
Birth date
Birth place 
Schooling
Job
Relationship Status
Family

Timeline
Must include at least 10 events that show the transition of Gatz to Gatsby.

Friends
At least three possible friends


2. TPEQEA
In a TPEQEA paragraph respond to the following writing prompt:
Evaluate Gatsby’s desire to repeat the past and predict how that will either help or hinder his American Dream.

Whatever you do not finish in class will be done for homework.

Closure:
Has your opinion of Gatsby changed?
Why or why not?
