My students loved this assignment! This is a great assignment to make the students really think about the characters and their actions. I was surprised by some of the "grades", but their explanations make so much sense.
Rated 5 out of 5What a great idea! This activity really makes students think about what information has formed their opinions about the characters. Thanks for the resource!

Begin character analysis in Chapter 1 of F. Scott Fitzgerald's American classic The Great Gatsby with this unique, engaging activity that requires students to "grade" the characters in certain traits.
This activity gets the students critically thinking and requires justification with textual details. After grading each character, students will have to explain the most and least likable characters. I think discussing the likability of characters is essential early on, so students can realize that they're not necessarily supposed to like many of this novel's characters (which plays into Fitzgerald's message and social commentary).
