Wonder is a story about a ten-year-old boy who lives in Manhattan and who has a rare physical deformity. It is told from the points of view of multiple characters: primarily the deformed Auggie himself, but also his sister, his friends, and his enemies. Having so many perspectives, it allows readers to understand how Auggie's entire community struggles to learn compassion and empathy. While interacting with someone who looks different from them, these other characters discover that Auggie has so much to offer on the inside. While reading this novel, students learn to open their eyes and see the beauty that is all around us. It promotes great discussions for children on what it feels like to be singled out, and learn the importance of kindness and compassion. We will focus on reading the novel, engaging in thought provoking questions, and completing a variety of captivating activities. Some reading comprehension skills we will learn are new vocabulary, group discussions, main idea, making inferences, drawing conclusions, figurative language, and journal writing. This is a great novel to study character analysis, and we will do a storyboard about Characters.

Lista de útiles escolares
Students will need a copy of the novel Wonder by R.J. Palacio. Upon enrollment you will receive the first week's handouts. Students are expected to do the assigned readings at home. We will complete the majority of the assignments during class. (I may assign a small amount of work at home to finish if needed.) This is a great book for a class literature unit. It is 310 pages, so it is important that the student keep up with the weekly reading so we can complete the class in 8 weeks. This shouldn't be hard because it is a fun novel that keeps the readers attention. I have created class activities I think the students will enjoy too. I will send the handouts out at the beginning of each week.

I have chosen this novel because I think the themes are perfect for kids and will foster great discussion and thought provoking questions. I love teaching reading and I create a relaxed environment in my classes in which students feel comfortable to share their thoughts and ideas. I also want them to be excited about coming to class, so I work hard to create activities that will keep them engaged while learning important reading comprehension skills.
