This term in reading we are diving into a novel study for the book “Wonder” by R.J. Palacio.  This week we are trying to understand the characteristics and personalities of key characters in the story.  We also practiced summarisation  skills by extracting relevant details from the text.

We had to read Part One Chapters 8-10 which was about Auggie who announces that he has chosen the science elective anyway, which Julian pronounces to be the hardest elective. Julian doubts whether Auggie can handle it. He just can’t wrap his mind around the mysteries of homeschooling: how a kid can actually learn anything without a real teacher? Jack stays out of it.

Next, we used what we had read to answer our slides about the key characters.

I enjoyed Reading the book.

I need to improve on understanding.

I did well at Finishing Early.
