Mrs. Reith's Agenda:
Today we will be using Kahoot to do a review of Modernism/Modernity, historical context in The Great Gatsby, characterization, setting, and The American Dream.
You need to have a solid foundation of these concepts before we move on to the next major assignment, which will be a close reading and annotation assignment.
I will give you 10-15 minutes at the beginning of class to study your notes and other class materials before the Kahoot.
