- 16 May 2024KS3 ENGLISH MASTERY - SPOTLIGHT Y8 In today's English class, our Y8 Gothic literature enthusiasts set out to debunk a prevalent myth surrounding Frankenstein's 'monster'. Contrary to popular belief, they discovered that, in Mary Shelly's iconic works, the 'creature' isn't depicted as green nor adorned with bolts protruding from its neck! This exploration highlights the importance of delving into primary sources and challenging common misconceptions. By rooting their illustrations in Shelley's words, our students are fostering a deeper appreciation for classic literature and the power of textual evidence. Well done Year 8!View This Post
