Wonder
Our Chapter Chat book for Term One is Wonder by R. J. Palacio.
"August (Auggie) Pullman was born with a facial deformity that prevented him from going to a mainstream school - until now. He's about to start 5th grade at Beecher Prep, and if you've ever been the new kid then you know how hard that can be. The thing is Auggie's just an ordinary kid, with an extraordinary face."

chapter chat
This year we will be taking part in Chapter Chat. Chapter Chat is a Twitter Book Chat for New Zealand kids. The twitter chat is based around a chapter book which is read aloud in class. The twitter chat is on every Friday for five weeks, from 10am-10:45am, and is based around 10 questions which are generated from the story. There are also weekly tasks posted for classes to complete and share during the chat. To date there are over 200 year 5 and 6 classes from around New Zealand participating in Term 1's Chapter Chat! It is exciting to be involved in a literacy rich programme that makes connections with other schools around New Zealand. Watch this space for examples of our work.
