Wonder Novel Study Print and Digital Activities and Chapter Questions Special Ed

Wonder by R.J. Palacio 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 100+ page Wonder Novel Unit is designed for students with special learning needs. I was always reading a novel to my students, regardless of their learning level. Learning to sit while someone is talking is an invaluable skill worth teaching.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS NOVEL UNIT IS FOR STUDENTS WITH SIGNIFICANT DISABILITIES 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 middle school novel unit has print and digital activities to accompany Palacio’s book, Wonder.

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

There are many opportunities for students to engage in repeated information about the amazing story of August, a very special boy who teaches everyone something about the importance of being kind. This repetition encourages deeper engagement in the book.

Finally, many of these Wonder Novel Unit activities include more than one version, suggestions for differentiation, and options for presentation. There is an activity (42 activities!!) to go with a section of pages as your students stay engaged while you read this novel aloud.

***There are 90 comprehension questions for this novel. I included a reference as to which part and chapter each question comes from.

See preview for a detailed look at what 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.
