Wonder 영어 원서 수업 8: 자연 체험과 메달로 읽는 결말
Wonder의 결말은 메달을 받는 순간만으로 완성되지 않습니다. 자연 체험에서 친구들이 한 선택과 학교 공동체의 시선이 어떻게 달라졌는지를 함께 읽어야 메달의 의미를 평가할 수 있습니다.

At the nature retreat, older boys are mean to Auggie in the dark. Jack is there, but this time Amos, Miles, and Henry (boys who were not always kind) come to help.

5. Story Summary (Spoiler-Safe)
At the fifth-grade nature retreat, Auggie and Jack go into the woods at night. Mean seventh-graders attack them with words and a flashlight. Older boys from Auggie’s grade — especially Amos — come to rescue them. They run together through the dark. Later, at graduation, Mr. Tushman gives Auggie the special medal for “quiet strength that carried up the most hearts.” The entire auditorium stands and cheers. Auggie finally feels seen — not for his face, but for who he is.
6. Why It Matters
This is the beautiful ending. The boys who once played the Plague game now protect Auggie. The school that once stared now applauds. The story shows that when you are brave and kind, even when it is hard, the world can change around you. “Everyone in the world should get a standing ovation at least once in their life.”
7. Listen & Shadow
