Class text and English focus
We will be using the text Wonder by R.J. Palacio for our shared class read. A pdf copy of the text is available on the Google Classroom, but some children may prefer to have their own copies of the text – whilst there is a film version available, please encourage children not to watch this just yet as we will build up to it.
