Class experience
US Grade 5 - 7
The Harry Potter Series is a fun series to enjoy or get your kiddos to learn to enjoy reading. It's a nice bonus that after reading the book you can extend the learning by watching the movie and doing compare and contrast exercise that doesn't even feel like work! Talk about getting your kiddos into it, if they aren't already. This is an advanced novel study. I realize the grade/age level reading is average, but the curriculum I developed and used is more than just a novel study. It focuses...
This class is taught in English.
Students will improve their reading comprehension and vocabulary development. Figurative language and writing activities will be offered but not required.
I have used this curriculum to teach this novel. I do identify characters as "bullies". I do not address or encourage any real magical application as I am a Christian and do not support the use of magic. However, it is a great piece of literature and so much fun can be enjoyed with it.
Homework Offered
Homework will be optional. However, if students submit all their quizzes, I will create a certificate for them. Homework will greatly advance their learning and help them make connections to the real world. That's the beauty of this system. You can enjoy a fantasy book but, still learn while you go.1 - 2 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
There will be a percentage average for each quiz and written assignment.Grades Offered
Students will need a copy of the book. There are websites we will use: vocabulary.com (please create a student account before class - it's free), quiz.org (I will provide a class code, so students and parents can see the quiz results), and Kahoot will be used as well. Printing out the weekly curriculum is highly encouraged. However, it is not required.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Vocabulary.com is a free online platform that provides students with vocabulary and spelling practice. For vocabulary, it beings with exact definitions. The more the students practice, the more advanced the vocabulary program will use the same words but in different contexts. Puzzel.org is a program I used with students. I create all of the content, and there are no access points to students' information. This program allows me to make educational games, such as word searches for spelling, crosswords for reading comprehension and vocabulary, summary sort events, etc. The learning foundation is there, but it's a fun way to test skills without it feeling like a quiz. Kahoot is something I like to use for gamified quizzes. The kiddos love Kahoots. Google Drive will be offered as an option to students who want to participate in the writing prompt options when uncomfortable attaching assignments with Outschool. Plus, there is an actual grade book in Google Classroom/Google Drive, so it's something I offer, but is not a requirement for students.
Students will need a copy of the book. There are websites we will use: vocabulary.com (please create a student account before class - it's free) and Kahoot will be used as well. There will be interactive games to reinforce learning with the use of www.puzzel.org. I create the content. Printing out the weekly curriculum is highly encouraged. However, it is not required.
