Initial Thesis Papers
Within the context of my inquiry project, the initial thesis paper on The Great Gatsby serves an extremely important purpose. It not only functions as a diagnostic assessment of the students’ ability entering 11th grade, it also contextualizes my resulting interventions and sets up how their growth will be subsequently measured. For this section, I will be looking at the assignment given to the class and at two paragraphs each from Nicole, Anastasia and Nem: their thesis paragraphs and one representative body paragraph.
