The aim of this session was to explore content appropriate for the essay title:
HOW DOES FITZGERALD TELL THE STORY IN THE OPENING CHAPTER OF TGG?
Class discussion explored the thematic nature of the opening chapters, author's aim and possible content for the LANGUAGE paragraph. Discussion briefly considered STRUCTURE. We will continue a discussion of STRUCTURE tomorrow.
Homework: Tomorrow we shall consider content for the FORM and STRUCTURE sections of the essay so students need to arrive armed with some opinion that is supported with specific textual reference.
A further homework is the photography task!! Students must send me a single image from the town of Beverley that relates in some way to the opening chapters of THE GREAT GATSBY. Students need to email me the image so that I can post this image to the blog. Students will be expected to explain their choice of image, supported with specific textual reference, at the beginning of the session on Tuesday. Get snapping LIT freaks.
