Class experience

US Grade 4 - 7
Week One (Chapters One, Two, Three, and Four): Students will read an interesting opening chapter that describes Voldemort and Wormtail's current living situations. When the story switches to Harry Potter's point of view, we are reminded of what happened to Harry and his friends last year. Are the students excited for the Quidditch World Cup? What do they think is the significance of Bertha Jorkin's disappearance? Are students surprised that Wormtail seems concerned about Harry's well-being? 

Week Two (Chapters Five, Six, Seven and Eight): Students will spend time with the Weasley family in the Burrow before heading off to the Qudditch World Cup! We meet up with a lot of Hogwarts students but also meet some new characters like Ministry of Magic employees and Winky, the house elf. Will Ireland win but Krum catch the snitch like Fred and George predict? Or will the Veela ruin the festivities?

Week Three (Chapters Nine, Ten, Eleven, and Twelve): From the Dark Mark to the TriWizard Tournament, there are a lot of unanswered questions in these chapters. 

Week Four (Chapters Thirteen, Fourteen, Fifteen and Sixteen): Moody teaches the students the Unforgiveable Curses. And Hogwarts gets a visit from two new magical schools and their students, just in time for the Goblet of Fire to spit out the tournament champions' names!

Week Five (Chapters Seventeen, Eighteen, Nineteen, and Twenty): Harry's in a lot of trouble! Even the other houses have turned against him! That is, until he helps their champion as they prepare for their first challenge. And if Hagrid is excited about the creatures the tournament is using, then you know they will be dangerous! 

Week Six (Chapters Twenty-One, Twenty-Two, Twenty-Three, and Twenty-Four): It's time to get glitz and glamored for the Yule Ball! Everyone is excited except Harry and Ron, who have to find dates and dance with...gulp...girls!  

Week Seven (Chapters Twenty-Five, Twenty-Six, Twenty-Seven, and Twenty-Eight): The second task raises the stakes! Sirius is concerned about Harry's situation and someone is lurking on the Hogwarts grounds. Is it the same person who broke into Snape's office? 

Week Eight (Chapters Twenty-Nine, Thirty, Thirty-One, and Thirty-Two): 
Week Nine: Chapters Thirty-Three, Thirty-Four, Thirty-Five, Thirty-Six, and Thirty-Seven
I have an MFA in Creative Writing for Children and Young Adults. During grad school, my 30 page critical essay cited numerous quotes from the Harry Potter series. I felt so fortunate to get to read Harry Potter as part of my education! I want to share that love and passion for Harry Potter to all readers. It is such an immersive world and so much fun to escape to. There is so much to be learned from this series, especially for students who love reading about creative worlds or who have any interest in creative writing. This book particularly leads to good conversations about friendship, competition, trust, and dealing with hardships (like the loss of a friend). 
Homework Offered
Students will read approximately four chapters a week on their own time. Each Sunday, students will have access to the new video and a corresponding one page worksheet with discussion questions and places for fill-in-the blank answers. Each week, I assign a short writing assignment focused around that week's discussion questions and ask the students to share their responses in the classroom. There are also daily activities each day like vocabulary words, an I Spy game, word searches and crossword puzzles to test their comprehension from the weekly chapters.
1 - 2 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
The more questions, comments, and posts that students share in the classroom, the more I can understand their knowledge and comprehension of the topics we are discussing.
Grades Offered
The students will need a copy of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire to read on their own. It can be borrowed from the library or even listened to as an audio book. The students will not need a physical copy of the story in class, although they may find it helpful to have while filling out their worksheets or working on their writing assignment.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Harry Potter is a book about witches, wizards, and witchcraft. This book is darker than the previous three. It begins and ends with death.  For most of the school year, Harry participates in challenges that are deadly and dangerous. By the end of the story, Lord Voldemort returns and a Hogwarts student is dead. Its edgier themes will appeal more to older kids and may not be appropriate for younger, more sensitive readers.
