Greetings Magical Students, In this book discussion, we will look to the Harry Potter series for answers. For this section we will focus on discussing tough topics. We will be using this class time to critically discuss and examine students answers between what seem like 2 impossible answers. We will open up every class with introductions and then begin our discussion. As the Professor, I will prompt students with pre planned discussion topics. These topics are thought up to make the students choose between similar, but difficult wizardly situations. The students will then give their answers as we dive into deeper discussion of the prompts given. Students will be given the opportunity to give an answer to each topic. They will also be given the opportunity to explain why they decided on that answer. Our agenda for this 30 minute class: -Introductions and explanation of the class (5 minutes) -Discussion: 8-9 Prompts and discussion time. We will spend about 3 minutes on each slide. Every student will have the chance to answer each topic discussion. (18 Minutes) -Conclusion: Each student will have the opportunity to share a HP related topic they would like to discuss with the class. (7 minutes) Talking about a topic that you are passionate about is fun and helps to build listening and public speaking skills. Students are welcome to come to class dressed in Harry Potter robes or attire. Wands and magical pets are welcome as well!
Learning Goals
Students will improve their listening, problem solving, and conversational skills . Students will gain confidence and and listening skills while socializing with other students of similar interests.

I am bursting with Ideas to begin teaching for Outschool. Currently, my daughter is working through a Harry Potter themed home school curriculum. I would love to do classes based on books and movies that we enjoy! Also, my family lives a holistic homestead life. I would love to teach classes that pertain to my homestead passions such as; backyard chickens, gardening, foraging and herbs, and crafting and knitting!
I believe that a child's interest guides their learning. I also believe that learning is best achieved when a child is having fun and truly interested in the topic. I strive to provide an environment that is fun, exciting, and meets the learning styles of many different students! I hope that I could be a small part in your student's educational journey! I look forward to learning with along with you!
When you come into my classroom I want you to expect an enthusiastic and fun class. Low teacher to student ratios. Mostly an overall fun time where you have a place for your voice to be heard! Reviews
