Gatsby Audio for Chapters 4-6

Today in class, we took vocabulary quiz #9 and the Gatsby quiz over the first three chapters of the book. If you were out today, please plan to attend tutoring to make up those quizzes. If you were here today, you received the extra credit for chapters 4-6. The quiz on these chapters isn't until Friday, February 14, 2020, but several people asked if they could have the extra credit early so they could read over the break, so I gave it to everyone today. There is no assigned reading over the break, but using the break to catch up or get ahead is certainly a good idea.

Below are links to the audio for chapters 4-6.


Scroll down to previous days for the audio for chapters 1-3.

Gatsby Chapter 3 Audio

Here's the audio for chapter 3:



Homework: On Friday, January 31, 2020, we will have two quizzes. One is the vocabulary quiz for unit 9, and the other is a quiz over the first three chapters of The Great Gatsby. All extra credit for these quizzes is due at the time the quizzes start. Extra credit cannot be accepted after the quizzes are given.

Gatsby Chapter 1 Powerpoint and Audio, Chapter 2

Today, we began reading The Great Gatsby during class. Most of my classes got to the part where Tom starts making horribly racist comments at dinner. If you want to skip to that part in the audio, it starts at 21:20. In your book, that's at the very bottom of page 12. (Keep in mind that we are not supposed to like Tom, for many reasons. You'll also notice that once Tom starts talking about this topic, every other character tries to change the topic because they obviously don't agree with him.)
