Directions:

  • Today you will have the opportunity to choose the type of notes you want to complete for this chapter.
  • Go to page 42 in your notebook and choose which type of notes you will try
  • Once you've picked, go to the next page in your notebook and begin setting up your notes with the date, title, & page number. 
  • *Remember* Notes go on the left side of your notebook. 
  • Raise your hand if you need sticky notes.

What note taking strategy did you pick?
Why? What do you like about it?

As we read please underline any new, challenging, fun, or unfamiliar words.

Discussion Questions:
  • Why didn't Harry and Ron take the train?
  • What would you have done if you missed the train? (reflection)
  • Do you think Harry & Ron made a smart decisions? Explain.
  • What happened to the car? 
  • Who found Harry & Ron looking in the window at Hogwarts?
  • What was the punishment for Harry & Ron? 
  • Do you think it is a fair punishment? Explain. (Reflection)
  • How did the rest of the Gryffindor students react when Harry & Ron returned to the Gryffindor Common Room?
  • What is the main idea of this chapter?

Best Question:
As we read you will have the opportunity to write questions in your notes that you would like to discuss. After Reading we will play "Best Question" whenever time permits. With this game each "House" has to discuss the questions they wrote down and choose one question they think will create the best discussion. You should use your notes about the reading strategy of questioning on pages 8 & 9 of your notebook. 

Remember that there are 4 levels of questions. In class we focused on learning how to write levels 1 - 3. 

Level 1 - Has 1 answer that can be found directly in the text *Does not prompt a discussion because there is only 1 correct answer & it's right in the book

Level 2 - Has an infinite number of answers and puts you, the reader, into the book. *Usually prompts the best discussions if everyone does their reading, because this type of question asks for your opinion about things that are happening in the book, and everyone has an opinion.

Level 3 - Has an infinite number of answers and pulls situations from the book and asks you to apply them to your own life. *Can often prompt great discussions if you ask the right question because these types of questions get people talking about their own lives.

When we play "Best Question" your classroom teacher acts as the judge. Each house picks 1 representative to read the question they think is best, and then the student leads the discussion. After all 4 houses have led the discussion for their question the teacher will award house points for the question they think is best. The points are entirely up to the teacher, and they may choose to award more or less points based on the strength of your questions. Some days all Houses will earn points, while other days only one house might earn points. It all depends on you and the quality of your efforts.
