We read a lot of really interesting texts this year in ELA, and I am very excited for whatever we read next year. I enjoyed all the texts we read this year, but The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald was my favorite, and the Shakespearean poetry was my least favorite.
I really enjoyed The Great Gatsby. I thought that it was beautifully written, and I thought it had a really interesting primary theme. I also liked how we did not know very much about the main characters for most of the book. This really interested me, and it kept me interested as I learned more about each character. I really enjoyed this book, and I really liked that we got to watch the movie after we read it. It was an interesting to see the story and characters in two different medias.
I enjoyed all the texts we read this year, but the Shakespearean Poetry was definitely my least favorite. I read this while I was studying English Renaissance Poetry. I generally have a hard time understanding poetry, so reading Shakespearean Poetry made it a lot harder to understand, which made it a lot less fun for me to read.
