6 AGENDA Most important passage Ch. 8 Adaption comparison DO: Evaluate critical moments to determine importance. Compare/contrast text to evaluate how emphasis determines meaning. HW: Ch. 9 + lit journal (Quiz Wednesday)
7 MOST IMPORTANT PASSAGE CH. 8 A LOT happens in chapter 8 to all of our main characters. On your own, determine the most significant moment according to your perspective. Your argument must include: Why is this plot point important? What theme does this convey? How does this significantly alter/impact the story?
8 PAGE 147 OPENS WITH NICK S DREAD What is Nick emphasizing here? Why does this particular chapter start with Nick s emotions? What causes Gatsby s house to seem so enormous?
9 GATSBY WON T LEAVE He couldn t possible leave Daisy until he knew what she was going to do. He was clutching at some last hope and I couldn t bear to shake him free (Fitzgerald 148). What is Gatsby s most enduring character trait? How does Nick feel about this trait? What is the resulting message he is trying to say about life and dreams in particular?
10 GATSBY REVEALS HIS REAL PAST ( ) What details does Gatsby reveal to Nick? How does Nick comment on this story? How did Gatsby lie or mislead Daisy when they first met? Why does it matter that Gatsby didn t plan on falling in love with Daisy?
11 DAISY S IMPATIENCE Read over page 151: how is Daisy described? What is being emphasized? (Consider connotations) How is Daisy s life described? What is being emphasized? What presumably is in the letter that reaches Gatsby at Oxford?
12 GATSBY CAN T SEE REALITY Read over Gatsby s statements to Nick on page 152; how does Gatsby tell Daisy s story? Why does he have to understand her in this specific way? What message about life is Fitzgerald depicting? Why does it matter that Gatsby says this to Nick before he dies?
13 THE POOL! (153) What is the pool symbolic of? Why should we care?
14 LAST WORDS (154) What prompts Nick s final words to Gatsby? Why does he emphasize Gatsby s reactions? How does Nick s knowledge of what comes next inform the way he tells this part?
15 JORDAN (155) Why does Nick describe his phone call with Jordan? How is this juxtaposed with his relationship with Gatsby? How is this phone symbolic? (how does it represent more than just his relationship with Jordan?)
16 THE FAMILY S RESPONSE ( ) How does Myrtle s sister, Catherine, respond to her death? How does George? What is Michaelis trying to do? Why does George do what he does?
17 GATSBY S DEATH (161-2) Nick is surprisingly vague in describing Gatsby s death. Consider: What specifically in the text indicates that Gatsby died? How does Nick feel about the situation? Consider his specific word choices. So what is the foul dust left behind? (Echo back to page 2)
18 WEDNESDAY, MAY 2
19 AGENDA Ch. 9 Quiz Finish Ch. 8 Adaption comparison Benchmark 2 pass back DO: Demonstrate understanding of critical moments in Gatsby. Evaluate critical moments to determine importance. Compare/contrast text to evaluate how emphasis determines meaning. HW: Get ready for B3!
20 QUIZ 5 (CHAPTER 9) Use your lit journal Remember: you need to explain THEME What is the universal message? What is the message Fitzgerald is sending about life? Evidence must come from Ch. 9 Raise your hand when finished
21 GATSBY CAN T SEE REALITY Read over Gatsby s statements to Nick on page 152; how does Gatsby tell Daisy s story? Why does he have to understand her in this specific way? What message about life is Fitzgerald depicting? Why does it matter that Gatsby says this to Nick before he dies?
22 LAST WORDS (154) What prompts Nick s final words to Gatsby? Why does he emphasize Gatsby s reactions? How does Nick s knowledge of what comes next inform the way he tells this part?
23 JORDAN (155) Why does Nick describe his phone call with Jordan? How is this juxtaposed with his relationship with Gatsby? How is this phone symbolic? (how does it represent more than just his relationship with Jordan?)
24 THE FAMILY S RESPONSE ( ) How does Myrtle s sister, Catherine, respond to her death? How does George? What is Michaelis trying to do? Why does George do what he does?
25 GATSBY S DEATH (161-2) Nick is surprisingly vague in describing Gatsby s death. Consider: What specifically in the text indicates that Gatsby died? How does Nick feel about the situation? Consider his specific word choices. So what is the foul dust left behind? (Echo back to page 2)
26 DOES LUHRMAN INCLUDE IT? As we watch the film adaptation, determine if your moment made it into the movie, and how it was portrayed. Does it match the book s description? Is something emphasized? Left out? Altered? How do these changes impact the overall message of these events?
27 BENCHMARK 2 Overall good Remember to use the key words in your analysis and a universal theme Retakes available until Wednesday, May 9 must set up with me

30 AGENDA Gatsby s end Is Gatsby a stalker? DO: Demonstrate understanding of critical moments in Gatsby. Evaluate critical moments to determine importance. HW: Get ready for B3!
31 MORAL OF THE STORY The Great Gatsby has died, and all of our characters either died or scattered; by examining critical events and characters, we will determine what purpose they serve at the end of the novel.
32 WHAT LURHMAN LEFT OUT Lurhman is primarily telling a love story, but that s not necessarily the story Fitzgerald is telling. What are some specific details from the movie version that are left out? For example: in the novel, Gatsby is alone when he dies, but the butler is there answering the phone in the movie.
33 WHY DOES IT MATTER? What effect is created when Lurhman leaves out most of the negatives (Daisy s half a dozen dates with half a dozen dudes, the fact she never calls, etc.) regarding the end of Gatsby and Daisy s relationship? How does this hope change the story?
34 THE DREAM IS DEAD BEFORE GATSBY IS I have an idea that Gatsby himself no longer cared. If that was true he must have felt that he had lost the old warm world, paid a high price for living too long with a single dream. He must have looked up at an unfamiliar sky through frightening leaves and shivered as he found what a grotesque thing a rose is and how raw the sunlight was upon the scarcely created grass. A new world, material without being real, where poor ghosts, breathing dreams like air, drifted fortuitously about like that ashen, fantastic figure gliding toward him through the amorphous trees (Fitzgerald 161).
35 THE DREAM IS DEAD BEFORE GATSBY IS I have an idea that Gatsby himself no longer cared. If that was true he must have felt that he had lost the old warm world, paid a high price for living too long with a single dream. He must have looked up at an unfamiliar sky through frightening leaves and shivered as he found what a grotesque thing a rose is and how raw the sunlight was upon the scarcely created grass. A new world, material without being real, where poor ghosts, breathing dreams like air, drifted fortuitously about like that ashen, fantastic figure gliding toward him through the amorphous trees (Fitzgerald 161). **The ashen figure is George!!!**
36 WAS IT ALL WORTH IT? The final chapter shows us the consequences of living too long with the same dream. By examining critical moments, you will determine what message about dreams and being realistic Fitzgerald is trying to convey.
37 TOPICS TO EXAMINE Wolfsheim won t come ( & ) Gatsby s dad (167-8 & ) Klipspringer ( ) Owl-Eyes ( ) Jordan ( ) Tom ( ) American dream (180) Green light (180)
38 WHAT TO DO Reread your section, looking for the message Fitzgerald puts forward and determine: Summarize what it is Include one pertinent quotation Explain what it shows, including theme
39 EXAMINE PLANNING THE FUNERAL After Gatsby dies, Nick ends up planning Gastby s funeral and attempting to get his friends and acquaintances to attend. it grew upon me that I was responsible, because no one else was interested (Fitzgerald 164). Gatsby s funeral juxtaposes his parties; while he was alive, everyone came and cared, but once he died, no one did. The thematic message is that people only care as long as there is something in it for them; people are selfish.
40 TOPICS TO EXAMINE Wolfsheim won t come ( & ) Gatsby s dad (167-8 & ) Klipspringer ( ) Owl-Eyes ( ) Jordan ( ) Tom ( ) American dream (180) Green light (180) Reread your section, looking for the message Fitzgerald puts forward and determine: Summarize what it is Include one pertinent quotation Explain what it shows, including theme
41 IS GATSBY A STALKER? Gatsby literally lives the past five years around Daisy. In partners, find all the things that Gatsby does that can be considered stalking behavior.

44 AGENDA Examining the power of the past Benchmark 3 expectations Determine group claim DO: Demonstrate understanding of critical moments in Gatsby. Evaluate critical moments to determine importance. HW: Get ready for B3!
45 THE NOVEL S TRUE HEART When we make our first chain-gang shuffle into Gatsby, we spend so much time preparing for standard test prompts on the eyes of Dr. T. J. Eckleburg and the color of Gatsby s car and above all the symbol of the green light at the end of Daisy s dock that the larger point of the novel gets lost. It s not the green light, stupid; it s Gatsby s reaching for it that s the crucial all-american symbol of the novel (Corrigan 5).
46 THE FAMOUS LAST WORDS Reread the final page of the novel (180) What does the green light represent? Focus on Nick s use of we ; are we (everyone) prone to this same Gatsby behavior?
47 GRASPING, BUT FOR WHAT? Look at the specific language choices Fitzgerald uses: Is it even possible to reach/ achieve the dream? What do we do in order to reach it? Can we be successful? What will be our fate?
48 MAKING MEANING As you prepare for your presentation, keep these final moments in mind; what is Fitzgerald really trying to say? Does he approve of our characters behavior? Is he trying to warn us off of participating in certain behavior? What should we have learned from reading this novel?
49 P R E S E N T A T I O N D E T A I L S
50 BENCHMARK 3 TASK PowerPoint or Prezi presentation presenting your reading of the novel through your assigned perspective Shared claim/thesis statement Individual grade The presentation will consist of: An introduction to the perspective and thesis statement Each student presents their quotations and analysis A concluding statement
51 YOUR SPECIFIC RESPONSIBILITY A formal outline that contains: The group s thesis statement Two analyzed quotations The student s part of either the introduction/conclusion This will be what you will then say in your presentation (and what you will be graded on)
52 TIPS TO BE SUCCESSFUL Use the planner/organizer Double check context Make sure it is accurate. Explanation of evidence addresses both literary perspective (key words) and theme refer to specific pieces of evidence. Use appropriate visuals memes are okay, but they must be school appropriate and on topic (so no Spiderman memes, for example). Make your font fit the screen; in most cases, the default font size will be far too small for your audience to see. PRACTICE
53 NOTE If you are absent for 2 or more days, or fail to be prepared to work on two or more days, you may forfeit your right to present with your group, and will have to give an alternative presentation on your own. If you are absent on the day of your group s presentation, you will have to present after school (You will have a NHI in the gradebook until it is made up). Presentation MUST be shared with me in advance of due date; you will be expected to present with or without a visual presentation (and your grade will reflect that accordingly). If you do not participate/speak, you will receive a 0.
54 TIMELINE Today Expectations Workshop group claim and check with me Monday Finalize evidence and speaker order Work on planner (independently) Tuesday Complete planner Start creating PowerPoint (planner must be completed before you can start PowerPoint) Wednesday/Thursday Work days Friday Rehearsal day May Presentations in class!
55 RUBRIC I have broken down your specific tasks to help you understand not only what you need to do, but how you can exceed expectations
56 READING Exceeds Context is clear and specific; addresses who/where/when Speaker clearly understands not only what happens, but why it happens Information is insightful and accurate Intro/conclusion contribution insightful and specific Meets Context provided Speaker understands the basics of the story events Information is accurate Contributes to intro/conclusion Does Not Meet Context is incorrect No context provided No contribution to intro/conclusion OR it is insufficient
57 SPEAKING Exceeds Eye contact is strong and consistent Volume is loud enough for everyone to hear Enunciation is clear Speaker does not read directly off slides or notecards (except for evidence) Slides are exceptional; visuals are supportive, text is clear and easy to read & balanced Meets Speaker makes eye contact Speaker is heard by most of the class Most of the speaker s words are clear (there may be some flubs or fillers) Speaker occasionally reads off of slides or notes Slides are acceptable; all required information is included Does not meet Speaker rarely makes eye contact (either looks at the floor or consistently reads off slides/notes) Fillers and pauses are distracting/excessive Slides are ineffective; text may be too small to read; visuals are not included or are inappropriate; essential details are omitted
58 ANALYSIS Exceeds Literary perspective (theory) is clear and specific; key words are used accurately and insightfully Connection to theme is insightful and thorough Explanations include specific reference to material (specifics are even highlighted on the slide for emphasis) Meets Literary perspective is used; key words are included in analysis Connection to theme present Explanation focuses on cited evidence rather than summary Does Not Meet Literary perspective is either unclear, inaccurate, or absent Theme is either unsupported by cited evidence, inaccurate, or not addressed No specifics are used ( this shows that, etc.) or summary rather than analysis is given
59 TASK FOR TODAY Come up with a group claim Get approval from me I want to make sure you are set up to get As!!
60 HOW CAN I COME UP WITH A UNIVERSAL THEME? What is the author saying about the character? Is their experience typical? (could this happen to you?) What would happen if you (or any person) was in this situation? Is this good (healthy, beneficial, make you happy, etc.)? Is this bad (unhealthy, harmful, dangerous, etc.)? Basically, the message should be either a warning (beware!) or advice (you should do this)
61 CLAIM WORKSHOP In your squads, workshop your group s claim: Is the thematic message clear? Do you reference specific details or focus?
62 MONDAY S PLAN Finalize evidence and speaker order Work on planner (independently)
