NEW IN 2020: Rigorous! Engaging! Thought-provoking! This 10-page EDITABLE document will set your students up to write both creatively and critically about Fitzgerald's masterpiece. The three writing assignments promise to elicit thoughtful engagement from all students without compromising on intellectual rigor.

Here's what you'll find inside:

• Creative Writing Assignment: Invite students to write in Fitzgerald’s virtuosic prose style while filling in a missing scene from the novel. What did Gatsby write in his letter to Daisy? What was said when Gatsby and Daisy finally reunited at Nick’s house? This assignment can be given mid-unit after students finish reading Chapter Six. (1 page)

• Analytical Writing Assignment: Challenge students to take their interpretations one step further by writing an analytical paper on Fitzgerald’s wonderfully complex novel. Let students choose from one of five profoundly thought-provoking sample topics — or invite them to develop an original topic of their own. Rubric included. (4 pages)

• Q3 Practice Essay: Designed for AP Lit teachers, this in-class essay assignment will enable students to practice the "Q3" essay from the AP Literature and Composition Exam. Included are three recent Q3 prompts that feature The Great Gatsby as one of the recommended works of literary merit. The assignment asks students to respond to one prompt by composing a well-written essay in 40 minutes. (5 pages)

The writing assignments will come to you in a 10-page EDITABLE Word document that you can customize for your teaching style! The preview for this resource provides access to all 5 pages of the document. Click on the green “PREVIEW” button to see what you’ll get. . . .
