Mrs. Reith's agenda: 

Reading Day - Chapter 4 of The Great Gatsby

Before starting chapter 4, we will briefly discuss the significant events that have happened so far in the first three chapters. What happened? What do we know about the characters? Where is it set? What is Fitzgerald telling us about the American Dream and Modernism?

Then, we will be reading chapter 4 together. This will be an ACTIVE reading session. Have your notes and writing utensils out and ready to go.
