Summative Test: Conclude a unit on Mary Shelley's Frankenstein with this end-of-unit assessment, which includes a Common Core-aligned rubric for evaluating essay writing. In addition to applying knowledge of characters, settings, conflicts, and literary devices, students will respond to the following prompt:
Alienation from society is a subject Mary Shelley addresses in the novel Frankenstein. What textual details develop and maintain an alienated tone throughout the novel? Focus on the characters of Victor and his creation specifically, though other characters may be referenced. You may also consider how the author uses language to achieve tone.
This bundle may facilitate small-group discussions in which students decode language and pose/respond to questions relating to plot, broad topics, and character development. Using this resource for structured guidance, students will improve their ability to present information, conclusions, and supporting textual evidence clearly and convincingly.
