The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton is the focus of this novel unit for students with autism and special learning needs.

 

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 140 page unit on the novel The Outsiders 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. The lesson of learning to sit while someone is talking is an invaluable skill that is worth teaching.

 

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 various activities to accompany S.E. Hinton’s book, The Outsiders. The materials were designed to allow students with multiple levels of learning to access and engage in lessons learned through listening to this novel.

 

There are many opportunities for students to engage in repeated information on what it feels like to be an outcast and the difficulties of just being a teenager. This repetition encourages deeper engagement in the book.

 

Finally, many of the activities include more than one version, suggestions for differentiation, and options for presentation. There is an activity (30 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.

 

***This has comprehension questions. There are 5 questions for each chapter, each with 3 picture answer choices. An answer key is included.

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.
