Turn to the epigram on the title page of the novel. Read and analyze. In the most basic sense, the poem is a piece of advice. The advice in the poem says this: go out of your way to impress her with your wealth/status (" gold hat" ) and with your bravery or courageous acts (" bounce high" ). Whatever you can possibly do to attract her attention is worth it if she ends up won over, because then she will be insatiable (" I must have you" ).

Read 3rd page of packet: Background & Intro to The Great Gatsby Look at the colored Character List Carefully read these Character Descriptions This old English teacher's take on new Gatsby movie: There couldn't be MORE difference between the 1974 and 2013 versions of the movie. The '74 version remains very true to the novel. It's romantic and quiet and subtle. Full passages and conversations are used word for word in the movie. When Baz Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby adaptation hit theaters in 2013, I wondered if whether—through all the confetti, and Jay-Z, and 3D—if this was actually going to be a film that approached the book the way I have with my students for so many years: with a lot of talk about Fitzgerald's use of symbolism. You know, how the green light symbolizes the American Dream and the eyes of Dr. T.J. Eckleburg are the eyes of God. Well, as it turns out, there is STILL a lot of all that in the 2013 movie! One of the biggest differences is in the narrator Nick. In the new movie, Nick narrates and writes the story about that Summer of 1922 from a sanitarium or mental hospital. The movie shows the chart with Nick's symptoms-- that he's alcoholic and prone to fits of rage and an insomniac. So it raises questions about his mental stability. We DON'T get that at ALL from the novel or the earlier movie. But remember that Zelda was institutionalized and Fitzgerald himself wrote an article called The Crack Up. So the producer of this movie, played up that other side of Fitzgerald in the character of Nick. Another big difference is the music. Even though it isn't jazz in the 2013 movie, you get the sense of how the music is infused in a lot of the scenes. You get a sense of what those Roaring Twenties parties are like. Go to pg. 1 of stapled packet and under the word (OVER) create this list: 1. 1974 Classic Trailer 2. 1974 Trailer 3. 2013 Trailer 1 4. 2013 Trailer As you watch these trailers, think about and record 3-5 adjectives that come to mind to describe the setting and mood and emotion of each of them. So for example, for the first trailer, I recorded nostalgic, dreamy, gentle, romantic, subdued yet jazzy, sparkly, splashy. Read the Lyrics for the song utilized in the 1974 movie trailer. "What'll I do when you are far away and I am blue, what'll I do?"

Fitzgerald had to drastically change this section of the novel's format; the rest of the book is written entirely from Nick's perspective. This is the only scene that gives us information outside of Nick's knowledge. Also look at the final paragraph of Chapter 4 where Nick kisses Jordan (not out of love, but because he was jealous that he didn't have someone to "haunt" him like Tom and Gatsby). Students ALWAYS argue that Nick does this because he realizes that he likes Jordan. But go back to the text! Phrases like "the girl beside me" and "wan, scornful mouth" give away his general DISREGARD for who Jordan is---he just wants to have someone, at least temporarily. Assignment: . Read Chapter 5.

Was Gatsby Great?: A Gatsby Crash Course Part II (8:49) Gatsby Test Review: Test will be mostly closed book, except for the essay section since you will need to cite passages. In the past, after about 30 minutes, I have allowed 10 minutes with the book. Format of the objective portion will include multiple choice questions of broader themes than the very specific daily quiz questions (samples below in review activities) and several matching sections (characters, quotes, themes). **ALL of these sites for review below worked for students last year. ALL of these sites work on my computers at school and at home. I don't know what you do/don't have access to with your filter this year. If you can't open them on your laptop, try a home computer or a library computer. Advice: Set aside an hour or two to work through all of these activities!

Fitzgerald had to drastically change this section of the novel's format; the rest of the book is written entirely from Nick's perspective. This is the only scene that gives us information outside of Nick's knowledge. Also look at the final paragraph of Chapter 4 where Nick kisses Jordan (not out of love, but because he was jealous that he didn't have someone to "haunt" him like Tom and Gatsby). Students ALWAYS argue that Nick does this because he realizes that he likes Jordan. But go back to the text! Phrases like "the girl beside me" and "wan, scornful mouth" give away his general disregard for who Jordan is---he just wants to have someone, at least temporarily.
