This 60-minute ESL lesson for adults (B2) explores classic literature, critical thinking, and vocabulary through a video review of The Great Gatsby. Students begin by reflecting on their own reading habits and opinions about classic books, then build key vocabulary (e.g. narrator, intriguing, cultural consciousness) through matching and rephrasing exercises. A video review of The Great Gatsby provides a springboard for listening comprehension, true/false analysis, and group discussion. Designed to promote thoughtful conversation, contextual vocabulary use, and listening fluency, this lesson is perfect for learners interested in combining English practice with literature and culture.
