The Great Gatsby Summer Camp Intensive
Class experience
US Grade 9 - 12
Note for Summer Camp: This one week class meets daily and will require some dedicated reading time. This is NOT a good choice for reluctant readers (though it can be a good choice for avid consumers of audiobooks). See the attached article and its very good argument for binge-reading. Fall Scheduling: Because it is very hard to predict what will happen regarding physical schools, I am scheduling classes as parent requests come in.

The student will need a copy of the book. There are several different editions of The Great Gatsby; Here are a few locations: https://www.abebooks.com/servlet/BookDetailsPL?bi=22786203888&searchurl=tn%3Dthe%2Bgreat%2Bgatsby%26sortby%3D17&cm_sp=snippet-_-srp1-_-title26 or here: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-great-gatsby-f-scott-fitzgerald/1117225297?ean=9781551117874 I will be using the Kindle edition, which can be read on any device with the free Kindle app: https://www.amazon.com/Great-Gatsby-F-Scott-Fitzgerald-ebook/dp/B000FC0PDA/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=the+great+gatsby+book&qid=1557246535&s=digital-text&sr=1-2 There is a wonderful audiobook version narrated by Jake Gyllenhaal: https://www.amazon.com/The-Great-Gatsby/dp/B00BWY8FAU/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=the+great+gatsby+audiobook&qid=1557247546&s=books&sr=1-1 The Great Gatsby is probably available from every bookstore on the planet. Students should also have a notebook and writing utensil for note taking and journaling. Other materials may be needed depending on the student's final project choice.
