The Great Gatsby Vocabulary
Instructions: For full credit, create a vocabulary chart in your notebook in the
third section in the back. Label the chart with the chapter number, and number
each word for full credit. The chart should look like this:
Chapter 27 Vocabulary
Word
1. Elated
Definition
Make (someone)
ecstatically happy
Picture
2. Haughtiness
Each chapter of Great Gatsby will have 8 vocabulary words. In order to get a 90
on the vocabulary, you must complete the chart for all 8 words. For an 80, you
must complete 7 words, for a 70 you must complete 5 words. In order to get a 92
or higher, you must use the book to find extra words you do not know, define
them, and draw a picture that represents it. You can get up to a 110.
When the vocabulary is assigned to you, you must complete it. It will be checked
AT RANDOM for a grade. If you do not have all the assignments done, you will
lose grades for all the ones you are missing. This could really hurt your average,
so please stay on top of your words! 
