Homework
Read the first chapter in The Great Gatsby. You should annotate at least every 4 pages. Answer the questions in complete senteces; they will be collected tomorrow.
Questions
1. Describe Nick. What facts do you know about him and what do you infer about him? What kind of narrator do you think he will be and why?
2. How does Nick react to Jordan?
3. What does Tom’s behavior reveal about his character? Do you think he and Nick will get along? Why or why not?
4. Nick starts the novel by relaying his father’s words, “‘Whenever you feel like criticizing any one,’ he told me, ‘just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had.’”. List Nick’s advantages. Does he go on to judge people in Chapter 1 or does he take his father’s advice? Provide evidence from the text
Hey Ms. Loumakos it's Siedah I checked for my book at home as well as in my locker and didn't see it. Can you check the list to see if someone else handed it in? I probably forgot it in class without even realizing.
