Although I have not read the novel Frankenstein, I've been impressed with
the depth of issues the 11th grade teacher has his students explore in the
video
we see for the course. I have juniors in class who, I feel, would relish
discussing
these issues of science, creation, creator, etc. My concern is that they
have low
reading levels and low interest in reading.
How difficult is the text of the book? Has anyone used this novel with
students
who have below-grade level reading abilities and interests?
