What educators are saying
This resource was a great way for students to learn about Gothic Lit. The students were able to take notes while going through the presentation.
I used this with my introduction to Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde. I was able to edit it to my unit and present what I needed with little effort. Thank you!
