to The Great Gatsby Project


We welcome your comments regarding our site. We hope that you enjoyed our work and can benefit from it.



My name is Sarah C. and I'm a graduate studies student of library and information science at University of Albany. For a group project in my information technology class, we are compiling resources to supplement the teaching of The Great Gatsby for New York State English teachers. We came across your study guide on the Internet and were so impressed that we would like to present your site as a link in our presentation. The caliber of technology integration displayed on your pages was exemplary and we would like to share this with our teachers as a model of information literacy. Please let us know if you or your students would mind sharing your work.
Sincerely

I actually just wanted to say thank you for putting that page together. It helped me a ton when I had to deal with the book for my AP Language class.
Thanks again, Kelly C., Palm Bay, Florida - October 16, 2002

I am a sophomore at Las Vegas High School in Las Vegas, Nevada. Your site has helped me so much and has given me great ideas for my project. And I have to add...some of the guys in your 2 period class are really cute :) Thanks!

Please pass on my congratulations to all the teachers and students involved in the Gatsby Project. What a wonderful and worthy effort. I am a huge fan and student of Mr. Fitzgerald's writings and I can say that your students have done an admirable job in elevating and analyzing his work.
Thank you for exposing them to something truly golden.
Sincerely,

As a student of the Bronx High School of Science and New York University, I must say I've never seen such an extensive, let alone wonderful website devoted to Fitzgerald's The Great Gatbsy. Choosing daisy as the background for your index page. . .well, that's what prompted me to write this, you don't find that extra touch anywhere. Just thought you should know, you and your students have done an excellent job.
Cheers,

Hello there,
I'm an OAC (Ontario Academic Credit-Gr.13) student at Medway High School in Arva, Ontario Canada. I'm studying The Great Gatsby in English right now, and I was searching the internet for studies on the novel- that's where I found 'The Gatsby Project' on your school's website. The website of your school is great, and the Gatsby project was more than helpful!
I just wanted to let you know that the website is really nice- it looks like you have quite a great school down there!
Thanks!

I'm working on a speech about The Great Gatsby and I just discovered your Gatsby Project website. It's a great resource for the text and very helpful.
Keep up the good work! :)

Hi. My name is Jessica and I live in Arizona. I'm a sophomore at Westwood High School and we just began studying The Great Gatsby in my AA English class. I found your site on a search and it has helped me a great deal. The chapter summaries, especially, help me understand what Fitzgerald is trying to convey through his words. I just wanted to say thanks to all your classes that compiled this website because it is excellent! I give it a 10. Now if only you guys coulda made one on The Scarlet Letter....ha ha just kidding...Thanks again West Springfield High School English students!

Your site is awesome! Best on the 'Net for The Great Gatsby. I dare say! I'm a year 11 Lit student in Western Australia studying Great Gatsby at the moment. We only have to do a speech on chapter 2 so far, but already the info on the site has been a *big* help (symbolism, etc). I have also looked over some other info and I'm sure it will help me greatly in the future (e.g., the colours stuff).I never even thought of that! So, thanks again. It's a cool idea for a project too!

I just wanted to write to say how impressed (and in awe) I am with you and your students and your project. I was just searching for any fun sites on The Great Gatsby and found your site. Thanks for putting it on the web.
As a teacher, I can only imagine how incredibly complicated it would be to prep for this project, prep the students, and arrive at such a polished, final product. I hope to do something like this in the coming years at my school (Abington Friends School).

Hi! I just wanted to write and congratulate you on the brilliant site on The Great Gatsby. I live in Northern Ireland and am currently studying for my A-level exams and consequently, I am in the process of writing a piece of coursework on The Great Gatsby for my English literature course. This site has been such a great help, and if I get two A's and a B in my A-levels, then I will be able to take the place I have been offered at Magdalen College, Oxford next year--just like Gatsby didn't get to do!
Thanks again

Hello, just thought I would let you know I enjoyed the information you have taken the time to post on the web. I am a teacher just outside of Vancouver, Canada - teaching English 12 for the first time; the site gave me some great ideas. Thanks.
