What educators are saying

This is a great end-of-novel project. The materials are all there, the artis nice, and students really have to dig into the text. I also really liked the size of the finished product. I incorporated a group essay building on what they do in the project. This will be a repeated project!
My students absolutely loved this activity! This was a great culmination activity for our Gatsby unit!
