F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby" is an excellent look into the Roaring Twenties, with all its decadence and decay. When we think of Gatbsy, we typically think of the parties and the riches, but the meaning behind Fitzgerald's masterpiece is much darker. In this course, learners will read closely and delve into the symbolism and themes of this Jazz Age classic. Each lesson will consist of a short introduction video and a comprehension quiz followed by 2-3 activities to help learners analyze and come to their own conclusions about the novel.
