Students were asked to consider the first two chapters of Fitzgerald's 'The Great Gatsby'. Students were asked to consider how Fitzgerald presents Carraway in the opening chapter, the significance of the Valley of Ashes and George Wilson, the presentation of Myrtle, the thematic nature of the opening chapters and author's aim.
Homework: Read the first five chapters of the novel. We will be examining the introduction of Gatsby in the next lesson so an analytical understanding of chapter three will be required.
Next week we will be considering the essay title: ' How does Fitzgerald tell the story in the opening chapter of the novel?'
Class discussion today was outstanding. Genuinely superb. Thanks to all. We also discovered that one of our group has pet shrimps. We live in a magnificent world.
