Have your students create a collaborative poster and learn about F. Scott Fitzgerald in a fun and engaging way! This project allows students to research the life and legacy of Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald, one of America’s most iconic authors, and showcase their findings on a beautifully designed poster. Students will explore his background, literary works, and lasting influence on American literature while strengthening their collaboration and communication skills.
To complete the project, students will work together to research F. Scott Fitzgerald, record their discoveries in the designated sections of the poster, and color or paint each piece. When the six pages are taped together, the final product becomes a cohesive and visually striking display. The finished poster measures 28" x 15", can be printed on regular copy paper or cardstock, and will last for years if laminated.
This resource includes step-by-step student directions, an author study project rubric, a graphic organizer, six blank coloring pages that combine into one complete poster, a F. Scott Fitzgerald author study answer key, and a fully completed example featuring both text and color.
This collaborative project pairs perfectly with any novel study for The Great Gatsby or Tender Is the Night!
