Lesson Plan

Zoom!

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Turn your class' focus on how wheelchairs assist individuals with disabilities to become more independent with this disabilities lesson plan. Scholars listen to a read aloud of the book, Zoom! by Robert Munsch, answer questions about key details from the text, work collaboratively to draw and create a story of their own, and compare and contrast the story they heard to another of similar subject.
