We're All Wonders Activities a Book Companion

Let me tell you why you need to add the book, We’re All Wonders to your classroom library! There are so many We’re All Wonders activities you can complete with your class. After reading R.J. Palacio first number one seller, Wonder, with the beloved character Auggie I was hooked. This book has so many activities to teach students about kindness and celebrating their own uniqueness.

If you teach K-3rd grade, then this is a must for your classroom library. There are so many lessons and activities you can teach with this book. Auggie is an ordinary boy who likes to do ordinary things, but the one thing that makes him different is the fact he was born with facial deformities. Sometimes kids are mean to Auggie. Kids forget that even if someone looks different or acts differently they still have feelings too. My favorite quote in the book is, “We are all wonders”.

R.J. Palacio started the trend #choosekind with her first book, Wonder. This trend can be continued with this picture book. I would love to hear from you. How do you teach kindness in your classroom?

I knew as soon as I purchased this book I wanted to use it as a center piece for talking about kindness and how we should treat others. I created a book companion resource. It includes comprehension questions, book talk questions for the classroom, writing prompts, kindness poetry writing, bookmarks, vocabulary match up, word search, and brag tags!

The writing prompt activity is my absolute favorite. In the book Auggie said, “That everyone is a Wonder”. Auggie wants the reader to know that know matter what you look like we are all unique in our on way. In the writing prompt, I have my students explore why they are “Wonders” and what makes each one of them unique. Plus, I love the fact that the writings make amazing displays.

I ended my lesson with a keepsake. I want to encourage my students to treat ALL people with kindness on daily basis. I made my students bookmarks. I printed the bookmarks on card stock and tied with cute ribbon. The resource pack does include brag tags too as another option.

If you are looking for a way to teach kindness in your classroom I would highly recommend this book. Students not only explore what it feels like to be different on the outside, but on the inside too.
