The face is a person's identity, what if that face becomes an object of ridicule and bias? Read my review of an excellent middle-grade novel: Wonder by R.J.Palacio. Different doesn't mean undeserving.

This realistic fictional book, Wonder by R.J. Palacio, won the number one NY Bestseller award and would be a great book to RA. The theme of this book teaches students about friendship, family, and strength. Auggie has been homeschooled due to his health issues, but when he turned 10 his parents placed him in a public school for the first time. He struggles to make friends, but Jack saw who he was on the inside. A sweet and humorous little boy.

DianaHerrera (The link above provides great activities to do before, during, and after the reading). During the reading I would suggest to make diagrams of each chapter and compare the relationship they have with Auggie. After the reading, the students can write a letter to a character that effected them the most. The letter will consist of the feelings they have felt and any advice they have for them. Next they will share what they wrote to their peers. 6y

DianaHerrera UDL principle 3.2 would tie in with this activity to highlight patterns, critical features, and relationship to encourage self-talk and understand the use of diagrams of those relationships during the reading. EL 9 and 30 make a great match because taking notes in writing or even by drawing pictures aids to identifying concepts and seeing the differences in relationships in their own way to understand the book. #UCFLAE3414SuB18 #Wonder #RJPalacio (edited) 6y

GGallegos I've read this book and I love it! It is so good to teach acceptance and relationships. 6y

DianaHerrera @GGallegos I couldn‘t agree more! I love this book and watching the movie a few months ago made me love it even more. 6y

#Wonder by #RJPalacio is a 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ star book! 🙌🏼I finished it today, and I cannot recommend it enough! This book is equal parts heartbreaking 💔 as it is heartwarming💗. It reminds us of what really matters, and to #bekind 💙. I also loved this beautiful precept: “I think there should be a rule that everyone in the world should get a standing ovation at least once in their lives.” -Auggie. #MustRead #ChooseKind #BeKindMovement #JPBookReview

Robothugs Love that quote. 🤗🤗 7y

Pamela2 One of my favourite books so far this year. Auggie stays with you for a long time after you finish the book 📚 7y

Jess7 Thanks! I love them both!!! Have you read this one? @Robothugs - if not you should!! It‘s beautiful. The ending was 😍😍😍 7y

#Wonder by #RJPalacio is both #heartbreaking 💔 and #heartwarming 💗. I made it through 256 pages yesterday, and plan to finish it this morning. I took another day off to recover from this sinus infection (or whatever it is 🤧🙄). I did get a flu shot this season, so I‘m hoping it‘s not that🤞🏼. My sweet #schnauzersoflitsy are comforting me and melting my heart as always. #DogsofLitsy #Dogs🐾 #ThisRemindsMeOf 💔 #BeKind | #BeKindMovement 💙

BibliophileMomma This is such a cute pic. The book was so good. Hope you get feeling better soon! 😘 7y

Jess7 @Tiffy_Reads - Thank you! #Parker helps make any picture cute. He‘s super photogenic lol. 😉 Thanks also for the well wishes! I deal with sinus issues a lot, but this time it‘s really hit me hard. I‘m going to go to the doctor later to get swabbed for flu since it‘s so rampant this year (just to be safe). Hoping it‘s negative though! I‘m loving the book, and I‘m excited to watch the movie this weekend. 💙 7y

Airforcesister I know how you feel. I am getting over the Flu and Step. 7y
