Frankenstein: Weaker Learner Support Pack for GCSE

Frankenstein offers much scope for classroom discussion – themes including the consequences of ambition and isolation help students reflect on what it means to be human and the effects of our choices. Yet, it presents challenges for weaker learners. This resource is designed to guide learners through the content in an accessible and engaging manner.

Suitable for:
  • AQA
  • Edexcel

  • Aim 1 – Engage weaker learners with the text
    Characters speak directly to students to summarise the plot before and after reading the novel.

  • Aim 2 – Support their understanding of key literary aspects
    Worksheets include stimulating and well-pitched activities to engage students with main events, all key characters, major themes, form and structural features, and language. Also includes a supporting PowerPoint presentation!

    • PLUS!

    • Original illustrations
    • Activities linked to AOs
    • Full answers included
  • Aim 3 – Consolidate their knowledge ready for the exam
    Essay-writing tips, example essay plan and sample answer, and a whole-text quick quiz ensure students are fully prepared for the exam.

What do teachers say about this resource? (12751)

I liked how the assessment objectives are broken down... I think the layout and the presentation is easy to read and follow. I like the examples of how to analyse the quotes in greater detail. I like how each activity has a before reading activity to start the lesson off... I think this resource is valuable.
