Frankenstein: Made Relevant

Mar 25, 2017 | By Jennifer Cooper

This is an absolutely amazing book. I have almost abandoned my other lesson plan books because of their oversimplified lessons. I only keep them for differentiation now. I appreciate the use of articles included to further show relevancy of the 1818 text. This is one of the best tools I have found to keep the themes of Frankenstein relevant. The worksheets are challenging and the articles bode well with difficult questions to delve young adult minds into, including the questions of how far science should be allowed to go and the ever-popular nature versus nurture. The paired reading passages are both challenging and interesting. Great way to hit our standards and prepare for all of the mandated testing while keeping the students interested. I would highly recommend this product!
