May Precept In Auggie Pullman's English Teacher

He was really happy that he can finally go to public school but yet he was nervous.When Auggie was born, he was not like any other kids he was different from all the other people so that kinda made his life hard for him because he had a rare sickness that does not often happens but for Auggie it happened to him. He thought that was not fair for this to happen to him and not anyone else.When he was born that is when it started for him.In the book it says this “ I know I’m not a ordinary ten-year-old-kid.” (pg.3)

Near the end of the book Auggie feels accepted. On page 282 we find evidence of this when he says, “It was like I was one of them.” When he says “them” he is referring to the other students. Auggie could finally feel “normal” and it is necessary for August to feel this way because people have always seen Auggie as strange because of his face. At a point August even forgets he has Treacher Collins syndrome. On page 307 we find an example of this, “I wasn’t even thinking about my face. I was just smiling a big happy smile.” August felt like it didn 't matter what his face looked like. It just mattered that he was happy. For once, Auggie didn 't feel like everyone was trying to get away from him; on the contrary, he said, “It kind of felt like everyone wanted to get close to me.” (pg 308) August can finally feel like a “normal” kid.

The first part of this chapter celebrates youthful "innocence" in a satirical, humorous, and proud tone. With respect, fear and admiration, the society of boys gape at Auggie's forbidden trophy, the apricot. Auggie holds pride in the small green ball. The passage humorously correlates the theft of the apricot to religion, calling the group of boys a "religious sect," with August, who had the power to steal the fruit with his own hand, their "religious leader." The apricot is admired so much by Ulysses that he "ran for home... eager to tell someone." This scene has a rather humorous aspect about it, due to the exaggerated importance and intense interest in this one, small, barely consequential object. Shortly thereafter, Mr. Ara comes out of his shop. Immediately, he is described as a funny, yet melancholy type of man. He jokes and dotes upon his toddler son in a way

Julian's chapter is really surprising if you read the first book. It's no spoiler that in the first book, “Wonder”, Julian doesn't like Auggie too much, he portrays a bully. He put mean notes in his locker, he made a game called the pledge, so if you touch Auggie or anything he touched you would have the pledge. Julian also turned everyone against Auggie, you can tell he was a mean kid to Auggie. When Julian got his class picture he made sure that his picture to not have Auggie in it. In his chapter he says, “I hope you’re planning on burning that” to his mom and he meant it. You would not believe what he really thinks of Auggie though, you'll just have to read his chapter to find out.

In the book Wonder by R.J. Palacio, Auggie shows insecurity by being antisocial, hiding his face, and blaming his looks on everything that goes wrong. When his sister Via had a school play, she didn’t invite Auggie because she thought he would be bored but Auggie thought his sister didn’t invite him because he was deformed. “You think I don’t know what’s going on? You just don’t want your fancy little friends to find out your brother is a freak” (Auggie 218). According to this quote, August is insecure because he didn’t get invited to sister’s play and blamed it on his appearance right away instead of considering other possibilities. Another example of August’s insecurity is when he almost missed what ended up being the best thing that ever happened in his life. He explained “Via, I don’t think I should go to the campout. What’s the point? I won’t make any friends because everyone will scream and run away from me. I know I would if I saw someone who looked like me” (Auggie 263). This quote shows how insecure he is because

The Holocaust was the systematic and bureaucratic murder of six million Jews by the Nazi party and its collaborators. During the era of the Holocaust, German authorities targeted many groups of people because of their perceived "racial inferiority" including Gypsies, the disabled, and some of the Slavic peoples. Other groups were persecuted on political, ideological, and behavioral grounds. Several authors have written about the Holocaust, but one author that touched many people the most was Elie Wiesel. Through the use of several style devices, Wiesel creates an impressionistic style which reflects the nature of his experiences in the Nazi

Children need strong, resilient role models to learn from and many of these characters are just that. Although Auggie is only 10 years old, he captures the mind of the reader and you find yourself asking “Could I be that strong?” or “Would I be able to rise above the bullying?” The characters are self-reflective in age-appropriate

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to go to a new school with no friends and a different face? To have everyone look at you and make a repelling face? That’s what it was like for August Pullman in the 5th grade. Auggie is different that everybody else in 5th grade. Auggie was born with a facial deformity so he looks different that other people he has had 27 so far in his life. Auggie goes to a school called Beecher Prep. In my opinion Beecher Prep has had a positive effect on Auggie’s life because now he has made more friends like Summer, Jack Will, Max G, Max W, and Reid. Sometimes it is hard for auggie to fit in when people like julian step into the picture, but overall Beecher Prep has made Auggie’s life a little easier.

Auggie was born with Treacher Collins syndrome and a Cleft Palate. After multiple surgeries, his Cleft Palate is mostly gone and the Treacher Collins Syndrome is better than what it was. According to the book, “When I came out of my Mom’s, she said the whole

One example of Julian bullying Auggie is when he kept putting mean notes in Auggie’s locker. I know that Julian is a bully because if he wasn’t a bully he might have actually been friends with Auggie. Another example of Julian bullying Auggie is when he was calling him names like a “freak” and he also started “the plague” just to be mean to Auggie. I know that Julian is a bully because he would not have started the plague or kept calling him a freak. This proves that Julian is a bully.

Love and trust hold the world together. All the horrible people in the world show that hate and distrust can corrupt the world. In the book Wonder, the character Julian corrupts the world of Beecher Prep through his constant terrorizing of August. Even though Julian tries to tear down August, the love of his friends keeps him going. The actions, words, and attitude of Julian negatively impacted August and others around him.

I think that Auggie’s experience at Beecher Prep was a good one for him to get a taste of the real world. The reason I think this is because he made good friends like Summer & Jack and to a lesser extent Reid. Also, he made good relationships with his teachers and Principal. Also another example is how more towards the end of the the story Amos and Henry stand up for him when 7th graders mess with them.

In this story, there is conflict when Julian is starting to bully Auggie and jack. For example, Julian would write nasty, mean, and rude notes in his locker. That would say,“ You look

I think that Julian could have been a nicer kid if he had just thought about his words before he said them. If his parents might have told him that your words really do hurt than maybe he wouldn't

Julian payed no mind to the fact that he doesn't see her at school, yet he still loves her the same. Unlike many other guys at the school, Julian was loyal and he saved himself for who he wanted the most. Being called the hottest guy in the sophomore class is a title which many girls felt indulged into which meant that often times he would be seduced into doing things he didn't want. Julian tends to always be around his regular squad of football players and card collections during lunch and they disliked how he wanted Alexia. None of them knew Alexia like Julian did and every day
