You will conduct research on the 1920's using the pathfinder links. Research topics such as music, clothes, dance, food, transportation, famous guests, and other relevant information you think appropriate for your party.
You will create and design an invitation for your Jay Gatsby Party using www.canva.com, http://www.greetingsisland.com/Invitations/Party or traditional pencil and paper.
You will write a 2-4 page research paper explaining the details of your party. Each element on the invitation you have created must be discussed as well as any other aspects of your party that are not indicated directly on the invitation. For example, if you choose to have music at your party, the paper should explain what kind of music will be playing and why you chose the particular song, artist, or style. References to primary sources found in the pathfinder and The Great Gatsby novel must be used and cited correctly in MLA format to properly support the choices you have made for your party. The paper should be well organized into paragraphs and grammatically correct.
You will provide at least one primary source reference for each research topic discussed in your paper. This meaning that if you discuss music, you must provide at least one reference to a primary source concerning music in the 1920's.
You will prepare a brief presentation on your project. You will be required to informally discuss your party plan and the key elements you wrote about in your paper.
