Thursday 8th September

In the lesson today we started to look into the social, historical and cultural context of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel, 'The Great Gatsby'. You will have time to continue working on the treasure trail (see the post below) in our next lesson.

The objective is for you to undertake independent research in order to be able to have a better understanding of America in the 1920s. This will be vital if you are to fully engage with, and understand, the text.

You need to be prepared to be able to 'teach the teacher' about all of the tasks in the treasure trail except task 2.

I really enjoyed meeting as a class and think we have got a lot of success to look forward to.
