SWBAT: Use textual evidence to support an argument.7.11.2 Cite strong and thorough textual evidence to support inferences drawn from the text as well as matters that are ambiguous.Analyze how the author uses conflict to develop a story.7.11.5 Analyze the impact of the authors choices regarding how to develop related elements of a story or drama.Take two minutes to review the HW questions with a partner.What is Gatsbys REAL story? How does Tom feel about Gatsby? How does Daisy feel at Gatsbys party? Though Gatsby is happy that he has been reunited with Daisy, what does he want Daisy to say or do?

What questions do YOU still have about chapter 6? Write!For one-two minutes, write about a conflict or disagreement youve been involved in. Did you learn anything from it? If so, what did you learn? If not, why not?

*This can be in your notebook.

Conflict Man v. manE.g. Curley vs. Lennie where Lennie crushes Curleys hand.Man v. societyE.g. John Proctor stands up for what he believes in and decides not to lie. Man v. selfE.g. George cant decide whether or not to kill Lennie/save him from a worse fateMan v. natureE.g. In The Most Dangerous Game, is when Rainsford is running through the jungle away from General Zaroffs dogs.

POSTERS. What you needTWO EXAMPLES of your assigned conflict from GatsbyBriefly explain the situation/who the conflict is between.TWO quotes total to show where the conflicts occur (one quote per example) to show the conflict. What the conflict REVEALS about a character or a situation. If you finish early, try to find one more example of the conflict.

When finished, you will PRESENT these to your classmates. MAN V. SELF IN OF MICE AND MEN:George v. himself Cant decide whether to kill Lennie himself (mercy) or let Curley get to him.George raised the gun and his hand shook, and he dropped his hand to the ground again (100)What we learn: George knows that his American Dream with Lennie cant go on forever because Lennie may hurt someone else, or be hurt himself.

Crooks v. selfWants to go with George, Lennie, and Candy to their dream farm, but knows hes black and maybe it is unrealistic.Crooks says about joining George, Lennie, and Candy, Well, jus forget it, I didn mean it. Jus foolin. I wouldn want to go no place like that (79)What we learn: Crooks doesnt go because hes accepted his fate that he wont reach his American Dream. Perhaps this is a commentary on the opportunities available to blacks during this time period.
