WALT: Know the author and their background.
Hello everyone I am back from the holidays.
This term I am doing a novel called Wonder ( Not everyone got to do novels but i was one of the lucky people to do novels!). i am going to do Wonder for this whole term. The first week of this term we are make a poster about the author so since i am doing wonders I am doing R.J Palacio, we had to find fact from this and this link ( the first one in about the author and the second one is about Auggie Pullman) they are both super interesting! we had a choice of doing a google drawing or a canva.
This is what my poster ended up looking like:
At the end of the term i will shown all the project i did for this book!
That’s all for week 1!!

Hello everyone,

The time I did not feel i did not fit or felt i was different as when i first came to this school.
Ordinary
- What it means to be ordinary to me is to be normal and to have some stuff be special and be the way you are.
- August is extraordinary because he had many surgeries and is brave enough to go to a school.

Lamb to the slaughter is a common saying that people say lot and sending august to the school is like sending a lamb to the slaughter and is like he will not fit in

When august meet Julian he know he is a bully because julian ask if he was in a fire because of his face or something, then august reply by saying he was born that way
Comprehension question
- The one wish August wanted was to have a normal face.
- How people react to August face for the first time is disgusted
- I would send August to school if I were his mom because he needs to have a better education and he needs to learn how the real world is.
