An example would be how in the story, Tom rats out Gatsby to Wilson because he realizes that Wilson is actually ready to kill the man who killed his wife]]> 2018-05-03 16:17:02 UTC https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257733997 jorge_romero1 https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257737231 Tom also identifies with the color red which represents violence.
For example, he is violent towards Myrtle when she kept on repeating Daisy's name and proceeded to break her nose]]> 2018-05-03 16:22:51 UTC https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257737231 jorge_romero1 https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257886536 Daisy best identifies with the color purple which represents cruelty. An example would be when she ran over Myrtle and had no intention of stopping to see if she was okay because Daisy is trapped in the idea that she is what matters most at the end of the day.]]> 2018-05-04 01:34:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257886536 jorge_romero1 https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257887073 She also identifies with the color yellow which represents betrayal. In the story, she shows this when Gatsby and Tom argue over who Daisy loves. She was back and forth, betraying Tom at first but then switches back when it hits her that Jay Gatsby makes money illegally and that would only reduce her self-worth.]]> 2018-05-04 01:38:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257887073 jorge_romero1 https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257887811 Jay Gatsby best identifies with the color green as it represents his generosity.

He was a man to be looked up to in the end, but his misfortune was displayed as he was shot for a crime he had no hand in. The sad part is that barely anybody came to his funeral, and what is most heartbreaking is that the one person he had loved so much didn’t send a flower nor a condolence.]]> 2018-05-04 01:45:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257888194 jorge_romero1 https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257888605 Nick can best be identified with the color gray, which represents sadness. An example of this would be when Mr. Gatsby dies, and Nick is left to call up as many people so that they can attend his funeral, but a majority of them chose to avoid Jay’s funeral because as Nick has realized, nobody cared for Mr. Gatsby himself.]]> 2018-05-04 01:48:19 UTC https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257888605 jorge_romero1 https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257889261 Blue can be another color that goes along with Nick, which would represent loyalty. As mentioned before, Nick shows the reader his loyalty when he personally mourns for Jay Gatsby, unlike anybody else.]]> 2018-05-04 01:52:12 UTC https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257889261 jorge_romero1 https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257889531 Jordan Baker can be identified with the color orange, for the warmth she has. Her warmth can be applied to Nick, as early in the book, he felt not fully in love with her, but he felt a ‘warmth’ that he enjoyed having around.]]> 2018-05-04 01:53:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257889531 jorge_romero1 https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257890008 Another color for Jordan is white, which represents marriage. In the end, Jordan tells Nick that she is engaged with another man because Nick had been slowly fading away from her.]]> 2018-05-04 01:56:32 UTC https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257890008 jorge_romero1 https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257890207 Myrtle can be best identified with the color black, which represents death. The best example for this is when she is hit by Daisy and was instantly killed.]]> 2018-05-04 01:58:02 UTC https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257890207 jorge_romero1 https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257890319 Another color that best identifies with her is yellow for her betrayal. In the story, it is shown that Myrtle cheats on her husband with Tom Buchanan, mainly because she sees Tom as a wealthy man while her husband isn’t.]]> 2018-05-04 01:58:54 UTC https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257890319 jorge_romero1 https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257890706 George can be connected to the color purple, which represents mourning. He shows this in the story when he see that his wife got hit by a car and is immensely shocked by the idea that the love of his life is gone.]]> 2018-05-04 02:01:35 UTC https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257890706 jorge_romero1 https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257890897 Another color that can be connected to George is red, which represents aggression. It is best shown in the story when he goes around asking for the man who drives the yellow car who killed his wife and takes out his anger on him by shooting him with a firearm, and shortly after, killing himself as well.]]> 2018-05-04 02:03:00 UTC https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257890897 jorge_romero1 https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257891414 This image represents Tom’s excessive habit of beating a woman(Myrtle]]> 2018-05-04 02:07:34 UTC https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257891414 jorge_romero1 https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257892047 This image represents the fact that Tom ratted out Gatsby since he wanted him out of the picture]]> 2018-05-04 02:11:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257892047 jorge_romero1 https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257892289 This image fully represents Daisy as she didn’t care about the person she ran over because she was thinking of herself and didn’t want to get caught up in trouble.]]> 2018-05-04 02:12:31 UTC https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257892289 jorge_romero1 https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257892433 This image shows what Daisy truly cares about in the world. Money is what drives her to choose whether she wants to be with Tom or Jay in the story. ]]> 2018-05-04 02:13:24 UTC https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257892433 jorge_romero1 https://padlet.com/jorge_romero1/xxvv0o2cqsns/wish/257892718 This image displays a huge party, like the ones that Mr. Gatsby threw in the story.
