The Great Gatsby SOCIAL CLASS WORKSHEETS | "Old Money" vs. "New Money"

By Rigorous Resources for High School English

NEW IN 2020: Rigorous! Engaging! Thought-provoking! This 5-page EDITABLE document helps your students to analyze the hierarchy of social classes and then to decode the signs of social status in The Great Gatsby. This activity promises to elicit dynamic engagement from all students without compromising on intellectual rigor. The worksheets on socioeconomic differences will challenge your students to dig beneath the surface of the text and generate profound interpretive insights!

Here's what you'll find inside:

Symbolic Settings Worksheet (or Quiz): The first worksheet challenges students to come up with adjectives to describe East Egg and West Egg based on how those symbolic settings are described in The Great Gatsby. This worksheet can be used either as a fun exercise or as a quiz. (1 pages)

Decoding Socioeconomic Status Handout: Not only was Fitzgerald was a careful reader of sociologist Thorstein Veblen's Theory of the Leisure Class (1899), but he incorporated many of Veblen's insights into The Great Gatsby. For example, it was Veblen who coined the term "conspicuous consumption" to describe a type of consumer spending that was intended primarily to show off one's wealth — which is one reason why Gatsby's parties are so lavish! This handout features key quotations from Veblen and other sociologists that will help students arrive at a deeper understanding of the difference between "Old Money" and "New Money." (1 page).

"Old Money" vs. "New Money" Worksheet (or Quiz): The second worksheet builds upon the handout above and enables teachers to assess whether students are able to decode status differences. The worksheet challenges students to determine whether 16 different adjectives — such as "refined," "ostentatious," "exuberant," and "aloof" — would most likely characterize "Old Money" or "New Money." Answer key included. (2 pages)

Analyzing Evidence Worksheet: This short worksheet challenges students to connect Nick's assessment that Jordan is a "rotten driver" with Nick's last words to Gatsby, "They're a rotten crowd." Did Fitzgerald mean to suggest that the residents of East Egg and/or West Egg amount to a batch of rotten eggs? (1 page)

These worksheets will come to you in a 5-page EDITABLE Word document which you can customize to the needs of your students! The preview for this resource provides viewing access to the entire document. Click on the green “PREVIEW” button to see what you’ll get. . . .

Thank you for choosing “Rigorous Resources”!!

Happy teaching!

Students will then review how matter changes, what matter is made up of - atoms, and what makes up atoms, how electricity comes from movement of electrons among atoms of the matter. Students will learn about electricity and how we are reminded how important it is when the power is off. Students will review the kinds of electricity that is used at home, the particles of matter and how they carry a positive or a negative electric charge. Students will learn how the flow of charged particles is an electric current, how the electric currents flow through a path called an electric circuit, how electric currents can only flow through circuits that are complete, and how electric currents wont flow through incomplete circuits. Students will also learn that when a lamp is unplugged, there is a gap in the circuit and the only way to complete the circuit is to plug the electrical cord into an outlet. Students will learn the different forms of energy - heat, sound, light, mechanical, and chemical. They will learn that electrical energy can change into the other forms of energy except for chemical energy. Examples of each change will be provided between the different forms of energy will be provided. Students will then learn how electrical signals are found in the body - the heart and the brain and what they do, they will also learn how these organs get electrical energy, and students will also learn about how electrical currents from outside of the body are very dangerous and what they should do to avoid these dangers. Throughout the product, students will be asked comprehension questions that include short answer and multiple choice to ensure comprehension.
