*Note: in addition to the parental guidance warning below, The Great Gatsby also includes strong language/curse words that we will come across both in class and for homework. Generally, I will read the words aloud when we get to them but I will also ask at the beginning of a class if anyone is uncomfortable with that and will omit those words if anyone is. 

Because we are reading classic literature that was written in a very different time period, the likelihood of coming across something that would not be acceptable in today's literature is high. Many classic novels contain sexism, racism, or other issues that students may not be used to reading. Any time we are reading a novel that contains these issues, I will stop reading and discuss what is wrong about what we read and why we no longer accept that idea or language. Instead of censoring classic literature, I use it as a teaching tool to help students see how much has changed since it was written, as well as how far we still need to go.
