What educators are saying
This is a great resource - very engaging! The activities aligned to the standards and my students enjoyed them.
I love this format and the depth of critical thinking required to answer the questions. The time listed for each question is extremely helpful. The questions are higher level and require thought beyond the surface comprehension level.

Description

Challenge your students to create their own meaning of this eventful tale, set in the 1920s, by connecting them to their own experiences and ideas. Prompt students to discuss the strengths and weaknesses that make Gatsby such a fascinating character.

General Tips for Using this Movie Guide:
- Print one, double-sided movie guide for each student
- Preview the next question on the movie guide as you complete each one, this can help students pay attention to important upcoming events.
- Pause at the times designated on the movie guide, encourage students to debate, discuss and talk about their ideas before writing their answers.
- Discourage students from simply copying answers.
- Randomly choose a student to share their answer and defend it if necessary.
- If time allows, feel free to rewind and show important parts of the movie again for additional analysis.
- After completing the short answers, allow 5-10 minutes for each essay question at the end of the film.
- On average, this movie guide will require about 45-60 minutes in addition to the length of the movie.
Digital Version Tips
- It is intended for a paperless, 1:1 tablet/iPad classroom
- Ask students to download a PDF editor app if they don't already have one. It needs to have a save function as well. I used Foxit PDF.
- Host the file. I used google drive to share a folder with students.
- When complete, ask students to save the file in a designated google drive folder using a naming convention. (I use LastnameFirstnameMovieGuide.pdf)
