The Great Gatsby WRITING ASSIGNMENTS | Creative AND Analytical Writing | AP LIT!

By Rigorous Resources for High School English

NEW IN 2020: Rigorous! Engaging! Thought-provoking! This 10-page EDITABLE document will set your students up to write both creatively and critically about Fitzgerald's masterpiece. The three writing assignments promise to elicit thoughtful engagement from all students without compromising on intellectual rigor.

Here's what you'll find inside:

Creative Writing Assignment: Invite students to write in Fitzgerald’s virtuosic prose style while filling in a missing scene from the novel. What did Gatsby write in his letter to Daisy? What was said when Gatsby and Daisy finally reunited at Nick’s house? This assignment can be given mid-unit after students finish reading Chapter Six. (1 page)

Analytical Writing Assignment: Challenge students to take their interpretations one step further by writing an analytical paper on Fitzgerald’s wonderfully complex novel. Let students choose from one of five profoundly thought-provoking sample topics — or invite them to develop an original topic of their own. Rubric included. (4 pages)

Q3 Practice Essay: Designed for AP Lit teachers, this in-class essay assignment will enable students to practice the "Q3" essay from the AP Literature and Composition Exam. Included are three recent Q3 prompts that feature The Great Gatsby as one of the recommended works of literary merit. The assignment asks students to respond to one prompt by composing a well-written essay in 40 minutes. (5 pages)

The writing assignments will come to you in a 10-page EDITABLE Word document that you can customize for your teaching style! The preview for this resource provides access to all 5 pages of the document. Click on the green “PREVIEW” button to see what you’ll get. . . .

Thank you for choosing “Rigorous Resources”!!

Happy teaching!

Adam Jernigan, Ph.D.

adamjernigan@gmail.com

Note: These writing assignments are also included in my Gatsby MEGA-Bundle. The bundle contains everything you'll need to deliver amazing and comprehensive lessons on Fitzgerald's novel: over 40 slides and over 240 pages of content-rich handouts and activities.

Roll a Monster Story Halloween Activity | Creative Narrative Writing | Editable

By KJ Inspired Resources

Bring out the Halloween spirit in your classroom with this Roll a Monster Story resource. Perfect for creative writing activities, students roll dice to craft unique stories while meeting writing standards. This resource is ideal for 5th-12th grade!

Save 30% with these bundles...

Holidays and Seasonal Activities Bundle

Holidays Activity Bundle

Printable Activities Bundle

Fall Ultimate Bundle

Halloween Bundle

What's Included

  • Pre-Filled Roll a Monster Story Board
  • Editable Roll a Monster Story Board
  • Story Planning Board
  • Vocabulary Page
  • Writing Pages
  • Editable Rubric in Google Sheets

Directions

Step 1: Roll the Dice

Begin by rolling the dice to determine the key components of your story. Use the chart below to match each dice roll to the corresponding element for your story. Record your results:

  1. Monster Type (e.g., Alien, Ghost, Dragon, etc.)
  2. Monster Appearance (e.g., Glowing red eyes, Slimy, Multiple heads, etc.)
  3. Monster Power (e.g., Telepathy, Fire-breathing, etc.)
  4. Monster Weakness (e.g., Bright light, Water, etc.)
  5. Story Setting (e.g., Haunted mansion, Spaceship, Ancient cave, etc.)
  6. Plot Twist (e.g., The monster is friendly, The monster needs help, etc.)

After rolling, students will have a list of elements to include in their story.

Step 2: Plan The Story

Now that students have their monster’s characteristics, setting, and plot twist, they will take a moment to brainstorm how these elements will work together in your narrative. Students should think about:

  • How does the setting affect the story's tone or mood?
  • What motivates your monster? What challenges will the monster face?
  • How can the plot twist surprise or change the direction of the story?

Create a brief outline, if needed, to help organize your ideas.

Step 3: Write The Story

Using the elements from their dice rolls, students begin writing their story. They should make sure their narrative has a clear beginning, middle, and end. As they write, students will focus on the following:

  • Incorporate all of the rolled elements into the story in a meaningful way. For example, if your monster has a weakness to water, this should play an important role in the plot.
  • Use vivid descriptions to bring your monster, setting, and events to life.
  • Develop your characters (including the monster!) by giving them motivations and emotions that will drive the story.
  • Remember the plot twist—use it to surprise your reader and add depth to your story.
