Class Experience

US Grade 6 - 8
Discover the magical world of Harry Potter in this 9 week class by reading "Harry Potter and the Half-Blooded Prince" and discussing the reading. Each class learners will come prepared to class by having read the weeks chapters. I will have discussion questions for the learners to encourage them to talk about the reading as well as check for comprehension. The learners are free to ask their own questions about the reading. We will also discuss character development and plot development. This class is for the learner who is reading this for the first time and for a fan that want to discuss the book with other fans. 

Here is a weekly break down

Week 1: Read chapters 1-4 and discuss how Harry is dealing with Sirius' death. We will also talk about the new Professor Slughorn. 

Week 2: Read chapters 5-7 and discuss the trip to Diagon Alley and the twins' shop.

Week 3: Read chapters 8-10 and discuss the who the Half-Blooded Prince might be. 

Week 4: Read chapters 11-13 and discuss Harry's belief that Malfoy is behind all the bad things happening at Hogwarts.  

Week 5: Read chapters 14-16 and discuss what the unbreakable curse is and how it was used.  

Week 6: Read chapters 17-19 and discuss Horcruxes and why it's so important to know about them. 

Week 7: Read chapters 20-23 and discuss the Unknowable room and the new information we learned about Horcruxes. 

Week 8: Read chapters 24-27 and discuss the life of Dumbledore.

Week 9: Read chapters 28-30 and watch "Harry Potter and the Half-Blooded Prince". We will discuss the differences in the film verses the book and they might have made the changes in the movie. We will also discuss where Harry goes from here.

Thank you for taking a look at my class. Please let me know if you have any questions or want to request a day/time.
