"I know your wife." Chapter 6

Start  by taking your chapter 5 quiz.

Link to chapter 6
I want you to work with a partner today to read chapter 6. I want you to continue to stop every few pages and make notes in your EJ about what is happening in the novel. You can take turns reading aloud or read silently, but agree ahead of time about where you will stop to talk.

You are going to get some more background on Gatsby's past. Pay attention to that.
Also Daisy and Tom are going to attend one of Gatsby's "little" parties. Watch what happens there. How does Daisy like it?
Finish reading chapter 6 for homework. Keep making notes.

"Who wants to go to town?" -Daisy

Good morning,
   Your homework was to finish the last bit of chapter 6 and write about the quote from page 116-117. Did you do that? Check the Homework Page if you didn't for more information.
   Time to take the Chapter 6 Quiz. This includes some short answers. Use your notes from your English Journal and you book if you need to. Note: Some of these questions are deeper thinking questions. Answer in complete sentences and show your thinking for full credit.
   Today we begin Chapter 7. I want you to notice a few things as we read.
  1. What is Gatsby's reaction to Daisy's daughter?
  2. What's going on with George and Myrtle Wilson?
  3. Which car does Tom drive when they go into the city?
