Fitzgerald+and+Roaring+20s

To start our study of //The Great Gatsby,// we will be exploring several sources on F. Scott Fitzgerald and the time known as The Jazz Age and The Roaring 20s. Today in class, you will be rotating around the room to 4 stations where you will listen to, view, or read a different source at each. Your job will be to take note of the 3 most important points you learn with each source. I have listed all the sources here for later reference.
