Hello--
Again--just a reminder...please re-work your group posts, add to them if need, arrange them properly, and then print one copy for class tomorrow.
Also--please print your individual responses that should have been finalized by now.
If you could also make sure that you save an electronic copy for your own records that would be great.
Please let me know if you have any questions about this.
These responses have been solid thus far--and I think that we have created a very strong body of work.
I thank you for you effort, your time, and your dedication.
With humility,
AK

Final Great Gatsby Post
For Monday please complete the following:
Create a question (centered on a theme, symbol, or major character in the novel). Example: What does the green light symbolize for Gatsby, and how does this green light alter his dreams? Your question should start your post.
Then--please answer this question in at least five-hundred words. Your post should contain a brief introductory paragraph and at least two body paragraphs.
Nuts and Bolts:
-We will revise these posts--but you should put your best foot forward from the start.
-You should adhere to the rules of good analytical writing: do not use I, avoid plot summary at all cost, and focus on writing crisp/clear analysis.
-You should have at least two pieces of textual support per paragraph (not including your brief intro).
-Proof read your post and avoid careless errors.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Best,
AK
