Harry Potter can't go back to Hogwarts. Or at least, Dobby the house elf thinks so. Danger awaits Harry at Hogwarts this year. 

In this class we will read the second book in the Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.  Each week, students will be assigned to read about 3 chapters of the book.  During class, we will discuss what the students read that week. Students will have the opportunity to share their favorite part and ask any questions that they have. We will also learn about a different element of literature each week, which will help students become better critical readers. We will discuss what they already know about the days topic and do a short activity to practice it.

Students will have an independent reading assignment each week consisting of 2-3 chapters of the book. They will also complete a short assignment to show that they did the the reading and understand the element of literature we discussed in class. The time required will vary depending on how fast your learner reads, but I recommend spending about half an hour a day on their reading/assignment, or 2.5 hours per week. 

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is recommended for 5th - 6th grade reading levels. If you are unsure if this class is the right level for your learner, please feel free to contact me!
