Frankenstein GCSE Study & Revision Booklet | Mary Shelley | Lit Kit Education

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

A complete, workbook-style guide to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, written by an experienced English teacher. It takes you from Walton's first letter to the creature's final farewell, one section at a time. Students can use it to revise independently, and teachers can drop it straight into lessons, homework or intervention.

What's inside (96 pages):

• Six parts, 19 sections, each with a clear summary, the key quotations to learn, written tasks and discussion questions
• Shelley's World: context cards on Mary Shelley's life, the 1816 ghost-story challenge, galvanism, Romanticism, Paradise Lost and the Gothic
• Characters, form and structure, including the frame narrative made simple
• Six quotation explosions for deep, Grade 9 analysis
• Five paragraph practices with model answers: What-How-Why, weaving in context, upgrading a paragraph, alternative interpretations, and intros and conclusions
• Seven quizzes plus a 20-question "Who said it?" mega quiz
• Six exam practices with full extracts, planning grids and answer space
• A Revision Zone: themes, character arcs, motif tracker, quotation bank and glossary
• A full timed mock exam with self-assessment and the mark ladder
• An answer key for every quiz

For students: work through it as you read, or use it to revise in the run-up to mocks and the real exam. Everything is written in plain English, with space to write your answers.

For teachers: it's ready to print or set as homework, with no prep needed. Quizzes make quick retrieval starters, and every exam page is photocopiable for use with your own classes.

Built for AQA Paper 1, Section B (the 19th-century novel). The skills transfer to Edexcel, Eduqas and OCR. Chapter numbers follow the 1831 edition, with guidance for 1818 copies.
