The Great Gatsby Reading Schedule Chapter--Due Date (chapter length) This reading schedule will guide you through The Great Gatsby over the course of the next month. You will have a few analytical assignments to match up with your reading, so it’s best to stay on track, or as close as possible. Chapter 1--March 28 (20 pages) Chapter 2--April 1 (15 pages) Chapter 3--April 3 (20 pages) Chapter 4--April 8 (19 pages) Chapter 5--April 11 (15 pages) Chapter 6--April 13 (14 pages) Chapter 7--April 20 (32 pages) Chapter 8--April 24 (25 pages) Chapter 9--April 28 (17 pages) NTI Day 12- F. Scott Fitzgerald Introduction (Day 12) F. Scott Fitzgerald lived an exciting, turbulent, dramatic, tragic life. We better understand his work when we understand the details of his personal and professional life. Watch the following link to the A&E Biography on F. Scott Fitzgerald. Answer the questions on the viewing guide in the Day 12 link. If the YouTube link doesn’t work, just do a quick search for “F. Scott Fitzgerald The American Dreamer Complete.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lvys5fPrgOo Modernist Literary Era Introduction (Day 13) Move yourself through the Great Gatsby intro powerpoint. Pay close attention to the following areas: The American Dream (and it’s collapse), the characteristics of modernist literature, post-war life (specifically a strict adherance to traditional ways of life vs. the hedonistic reaction of some soldiers), and old money/new money descriptions. To me, these are important themes that reverberate the feeling of disillusionment that many Americans still have today. The powerpoint and fill in the blank notes are linked under Day 13. Character Introduction (Day 14) Using my descriptions, add character commentary and description to the Day 14 handout. Many students use this as their bookmark--especially as they try to learn characters in the first few chapters of the text.
