Mercy Watson to the Rescue by Kate DiCamillo is the focus of this novel unit for students with autism and special learning needs. This is book 1 in this series.

 

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 78 page unit on the novel Mercy Watson to the Rescue is designed for students who have significant 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 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 13 activities to accompany DiCamillo’s book, Mercy Watson to the Rescue. The materials were designed to allow students with multiple levels of learning to access and engage in lessons learned through listening to this novel read aloud. There are many opportunities for students to engage in repeated information on this story. This repetition encourages deeper engagement of the book.

 

Finally, there is an activity (13 different activities) to go with each chapter as your students stay engaged while you read this novel aloud.

 

There are 2 complete files to go with this unit. One is in color and one is in BW.

 

***There are also comprehension questions included in this unit. There are 15 multiple choice questions with 3 picture answer choices.

There are so many benefits to reading out loud to your students. You will teach them an invaluable skill of learning to sit still while someone else is talking. Your parents will also LOVE you for not only teaching them this 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.
