***HOW TO USE LESSON ACTIVITIES***

SUMMARY:

Horton's Bay used to be a bustling mill town, but the mill has recently been deserted. Nick and Marjorie row on the lake, setting up fishing rods for trout. Marjorie enjoys spending time together with Nick; she gets to daydream. However, after sitting down for a picnic lunch, Nick picks a fight to make Marjorie leave him and end their budding relationship. She takes the boat and tells Nick to walk home alone. After she leaves, another friend, Bill, comes along to confirm that Nick has broken off the relationship.

This 11th grade canonized work allows students to navigate Americana through these characters and memorable story line.

What's Inside?

• 62 Slides: Detailed presentations that guide teachers and students through the narrative, themes, and context of "The End of Something."

• Several Projects: Creative projects that allow students to explore and express their understanding in unique ways. Some are group, paired, and individual. You get to choose which projects your class has the time for, and what each period can handle.

• Group Activities: Collaborative tasks that encourage teamwork and deepen comprehension through discussion and shared insights. Fun and engaging group assignments that will have the quiet students want to participate. Some are for sitting at a desk, but some are for moving throughout the classroom and the building. This is where admin might throw a fit!

• Graphic Organizers: Tools to help students organize their thoughts and analyze key elements of the story. Charts and organizers for differentiated instruction helps to make all learners understand the prose. Also, you can have students complete these individually, in pairs, or groups.

• Reflections: Prompts that inspire personal connections and critical thinking about the text. I have to incorporate reflective assignments that have students revisit their learning and through revisiting the text. They'll be going back and forth with themselves, through the text, and with each other to "find proof and evidence" of their thought-processes.

• VIDEO Assignments: Group, paired, or individual multimedia assignments that bring the story to life and engage visual and auditory learners. Your students get to make a documentary, by going to people outside of their classroom to get footage. Other assignments allow students to create presentations to share with the class. Your technology standards are met with this resource.

• Short Response Assignments: Quick, targeted writing and discussion tasks that reinforce key concepts and encourage concise, thoughtful responses. Characterization, themes, symbols, and the like are found throughout this resource. You are use any of these creative, fun, and engaging assignments for assessment. Rigor starts from Slide 7. However, if you are more a traditionalist, pick up the End of Something essay exams in the bundle or the store.

How does it work?

Though your students have been learning about the 12 stages, 8 archetypes, and countless examples of the hero's journey through literature and film, it is time for them to become heroes themselves by escaping your classroom!

How does it work?

Instead of entering your classroom, your students have shown up to one of the extravagant parties at the Gatsby mansion. They are surrounded by people dancing, drinking, and acting as if they have not a care in the world. But then they notice a man that looks as if he does not fit in with the crowd. He dons overalls and his face is covered in grease…and he grips a revolver tightly with his right hand. Now your students must locate Gatsby within his mansion before this mechanic on a mission gets to him! The only way to escape is by solving 5 different skills-based puzzles, discovering a hidden message, and finding clues along the way.
