Extra Credit: English 10

Attention, English 10 students! If you would like to watch the new Gatsby movie and earn some extra credit for marking quarter 2, see Google Drive for details. In the "THE GREAT GATSBY" folder, you will see a document titled "Extra Credit Q2: GATSBY movie (2013)," which outlines the requirements for earning extra credit. See me with any questions.

All extra credit is due on week 9 of the marking quarter, which will be in January 2015.

A more appropriate title?

This week in 10R, we're going to discuss Fitzgerald's choice of title for The Great Gatsby. So what do you think about this one? :)
