Activity #1

Reading Chapter 10

The Rules for Lit. Circle Discussions:

1. While we read each chapter you will be expected to complete your job for that chapter. Each member of the group will have a different job, and the jobs will rotate each chapter so you will never have the same job twice in a row.
2. If we do not finish reading a chapter in class it will be your responsibility to finish the reading, and complete your job for homework. 
3. At the start of each class the following day you will engage in a literature circle discussion about the reading. 
4. The Discussion Director is in charge. They lead the conversation. 
5. You will take turns sharing, and engaging the rest of your group in a discussion about your job using questions.

Discussion Questions:

1. A Lightbulb Moment!!! - Did anything stand out to you?
2. A Question Mark - Is there anything you didn't understand? Perhaps something that you would want JK Rowling to explain?
3. A Connection - What did you learn (about yourself) from this chapter?

• Why do you think Hermione wants to break the rules and make the potion more than Harry and Ron?
• What odd thing did the bludger do?
• What did Lockhart do to Harry's arm?
• What are your thoughts about Lockhart?
• Have you ever had to go to the hospital? What for? How did you feel about having to go to the hospital?
