Next year there will be a new English teacher, Miss Wolff, in this room.  She will be teaching the classes I am teaching now.  You will not have her as a teacher, but you have some good insight into junior English.  What helpful advice do you have for Miss Wolff?

The Great Gatsby

The book takes place in the Roaring Twenties. There was great music in the 20s. In the book sometimes Fitzgerald actually tells the reader names of songs he thought of while he was writing. Your blog this week should feature a play list of music from the 1920s to accompany events in the book. You do not need to import the music to your blog; you just have to write the titles and artists and tell why you picked those tunes for those events.
