Lesson 20 of the English Teaching Resources is a comprehensive plan designed to enhance students' understanding and engagement with the book 'Wonder'. The lesson begins with a class reading of pages 68-72, during which students are encouraged to use their 'Wonder Dictionary' sheet to expand their vocabulary. They are prompted to actively think about the plot, characters, and themes of the story, as well as to make predictions about the unfolding narrative. This approach not only develops reading comprehension but also analytical and critical thinking skills.

The lesson continues with a 'Word warm-up' activity focused on distinguishing between facts and opinions. Students are presented with statements related to the book and tasked with categorizing them accordingly. This exercise helps to clarify the difference between objective information and subjective viewpoints. Following this, the class participates in a series of votes expressing their opinions on various topics, such as dressing up in costumes, having their photos taken, and their least favourite school lessons. These activities aim to foster a sense of community and encourage students to articulate and share their personal preferences and experiences, while also relating them to the experiences of the character Auggie in the book 'Wonder'.
