When Frankenstein Was Just a Kid

This Spelling worksheet features a poem titled “When Frankenstein Was Just a Kid” from the book The Armpit of Doom, which humorously explains Frankenstein’s green skin as a result of eating too many vegetables. Students are tasked with selecting the correct spelling of words from multiple options provided in parentheses throughout the poem. This activity enhances spelling skills, reinforces vocabulary, and promotes careful reading. The amusing twist on the Frankenstein story, combined with a playful take on the common childhood aversion to vegetables, makes it particularly engaging for grades 3-5. It also subtly encourages critical thinking about word usage and spelling conventions in a creative, monster-themed context.
