*The Great Gatsby  -- before we resume our reading of the novel, I would like us to take a look at three articles.  Please click on the links below.  ASSIGNMENT:  Read the article and then briefly summarize the main ideas of the article.  I am providing a handout for that instead of responding in your English Journal.


*"Class and the American Dream"

*"When the Rich-Poor Gap Widens, . . . "

*"It Didn't End Well Last Time"
