Holes by Louis Sachar is the focus of this novel study for students with autism and special learning needs, with activities and chapter questions in print and digital formats.

Have you ever wanted to read a novel to your special education students but thought, there is no way they will sit and listen? Persevere, it is worth it!!

This novel study of Holes is designed for students with disabilities and special learning needs. I was always reading a novel to my students, regardless of their learning level.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS NOVEL UNIT IS FOR STUDENTS WITH SIGNIFICANT DISABILITIES AND WHO ARE EITHER EMERGING OR NON-READERS AND DOES NOT INCLUDE THE NOVEL OR AN ADAPTED VERSION.

⭐YOU WILL NEED YOUR OWN COPY OF THE BOOK. ⭐

This unit has 55 print and digital activities to accompany the novel Holes by Louis Sachar.

The activities were designed to allow students at multiple levels of learning to access and engage with lessons learned from listening to this novel read aloud.

There are many opportunities for students to engage with repeated information about Stanley and the other boys’ adventures at Camp Green Lake. This repetition encourages deeper engagement in the book.

Finally, many of the activities in this Holes novel study include multiple versions, suggestions for differentiation, and presentation options.

There is an activity for each chapter, helping your students stay engaged while you read this novel aloud. These are cut-and-paste activities and are also available as Google Slides with click-and-drag activities.

***This Holes novel study has 105 comprehension questions in addition to the activities.  There is a reference chart showing which chapter each question came from.  Each question is multiple choice with 3 answer choices that use pictures.

There are so many benefits to reading out loud to your students. You will teach them the invaluable skill of sitting still while someone else is talking. Your parents will also LOVE you not only for teaching them the skill of sitting but also for exposing them to age-appropriate material. Plus, you never know which students you will touch with each story you read.
