A Christmas Carol: Design a Ghost Worksheet

One of my favourite resources/lessons to use in my own classroom, now available for less than the price of a Costa Coffee!

A worksheet designed to help students plan/design their own ghost for the story of A Christmas Carol. Good prep for a creative writing exercise.

I’ve found it owes itself quite well to Cultural Capital and current events; last year I had a student create a ghost based on Greta Thunberg that came to warn people about the effects of global warming, etc.

Best printed on A3. Great for independent work, homework, cover, etc. Can be developed over the course of a few lessons if you choose. We’ve even adapted it into a drama task at the end to explore how they would interact with Scrooge!
