Where the Mountain Meets the Moon Novel Study Special Education

Where the Mountain Meets the Moon by Grace Lin is the focus of this novel study for students with autism and special learning needs.

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

This novel study on Where the Mountain Meets the Moon is designed for students who have 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 novel study has 43 activities accompanying Where the Mountain Meets the Moon.

The activities were designed to allow students with multiple levels of learning to access and engage in lessons learned through listening to this play read aloud. Students have many opportunities to engage in repeated information on the story. This repetition encourages deeper engagement in the book.

Finally, many of the activities in the Where the Mountain Meets the Moon novel study include more than one version, differentiation suggestions, and presentation options. There is an activity (43 different activities!!) to accompany every 1-2 chapters as your students stay engaged while you read the story aloud.

There are 2 complete files to accompany this unit. One is in color, and one is in black and white.

***There are also comprehension questions included in this unit. There are 5 multiple choice questions for every 1-2 chapters with 3 picture answer choices.

There are also two character maps to help students keep track of the primary warriors in this story.

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.
