Worksheet Overview

In this activity, we will identify and explain key quotations from 'A Christmas Carol' and explain why they are important to remember. 

 

'A Christmas Carol' is a novella (short story) written by Charles Dickens in 1843.

 

It's set in Victorian London and is a traditional ghost story (it's not too spooky so don't worry!)

Ebenezer Scrooge is the main character who is a mean and greedy man  -  he changes his ways after four ghosts visit him on Christmas Eve.

 

When you're ready, let's begin...

"Marley was dead: to begin with."

 

You should always refer to your own text when working through these examples.  These quotations are for reference only.
