In Dance Class, Ximena made a lame excuse to get out of dancing with Auggie because she didn't want to touch him and Mrs. Atanabi let Ximena off the hook! (insert mad face)

How could the teacher have turned this moment into a teaching opportunity for Ximena and the rest of the students to embrace Kindness towards Auggie?

Throughout Wonder, Auggie describes the way that many people react to seeing his face for the first time: by immediately looking away. Have you ever been in a situation where you have responded like this to seeing someone different? Having now read Wonder, how do you feel about this now?

Did you find yourself feeling like a big brother/big sister towards Auggie, such as experiencing anger toward other kids or a sadness that he couldn't be protected?

Which passages evoked the most emotions from you? Maybe it was when Auggie and his mom come home from meeting Jack, Julian, and Charlotte before school starts? Or maybe it was when Auggie tells his mom that Julian said, "What's the deal with your face?" and he says, "Mom didn't say anything. When I looked up at her, I could tell she was completely shocked."
