Today's session considered how Fitzgerald shapes meaning in Chapter FIVE of the novel. Students have been encouraged in the past couple of lessons to consider AUTHOR'S AIM when concluding a written paragraph. This lesson reinforced this feature of written work. Class discussion moved into a 20 minute paragraph response. Class discussion was excellent and the precision of the written work is improving.
HOMEWORK: Read the novel. We will be discussing CHAPTER FIVE and CHAPTER SIX in the next session and if we have time, I want to discuss the key moment in Chapter EIGHT when Caraway explains WHY GATSBY fell in love with DAISY.....What are Gatsby's reasons for attempting to capture her heart???
