Mrs. Reith's Agenda: 

Today, we will begin class with a quiz over chapters 4 and 5 of The Great Gatsby. Then, we will watch more of the 2013 version of The Great Gatsby directed by Baz Luhrmann. You will need:

Your Novel vs. Film Graphic Organizer assignment so you know what you are looking for as you watch
Notebook and writing utensil (or whatever you use to take notes)
