Activity #1
Harry Potter & the Chamber of Secrets Chapter 12 - The Polyjuice Potion

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 is one note taking strategies you tried in a previous chapter?
What did you like about it?
What did you not like about it?
What note taking strategy did you pick for this chapter?
Why?

Discussion Questions:
  • What does the sorting hat tell Harry?
  • What happens to the bird in Dumbledore's office?
  • What is special about Fawkes the Phoenix?
  • Do you think Harry should tell Dumbledore about the voice? Explain?
  • If you were Harry would you tell Dumbledore about the voice?
  • Harry, Ron, and Hermione drink the Polyjuice potion on Christmas. How do you spend your Christmas?
  • Who do Harry, Ron, and Hermione turn themselves into with the Polyjuice Potion?
  • How long will they have before they turn back into themselves?
  • What happens when they drink the potion?
  • What do Harry and Ron learn from Malfoy?
  • In the end what does the polyjuice potion do to Hermione?
  • If you were Harry, Ron, or Hermione what would you do next?

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.

Remember school is about learning, and not just completing work!!! Many students are just completing work, but they are not watching the videos or participating in virtual classes and therefore they are not learning and improving. Instead all they are doing is completing work, and their writing is not showing any signs of improvement. Today we will write our summaries together.

Your summaries should include:
  • the main idea (think mood/big idea)
  • the most important details from the chapter
  • reflection (Your own thoughts about the events of the chapter)

As you are working your teachers will come around to provide you with support. Your teachers might ask you questions like the ones listed below. As you get better at writing you won't need as much support, and you should be able to ask yourself these questions about your own writing.
  • What does your summary need to start with?
  • Have you written the main idea?
  • What did you write for your main idea?
  • What details are you including?
  • Why are those details important?
  • Have you used any transitional words to connect your thoughts and sentences? 
  • Are there any places where you should use transitional words or phrases.
  • What are your thoughts on the events of the chapter? (reflection)
  • What do you think about what you read? 
  • How do these events show that Harry is a literary hero?
  • Capitals, Periods, Grammar, & Sentence Structure

YOU WILL BE EXPECTED TO FOLOW THE RULES OF WRITING. 
  • Indent the first sentence
  • All other lines are lined up on the margin line
  • Words go on the line
  • Put spaces between your words
  • Proper capitalization & Punctuation
  • Spelling matters (You should not be spelling words from the book incorrectly, especially character's names)

Best Question:
As we read I want you to write down questions in your notes. When we are done reading you will have the opportunity to ask your questions to the group.

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.
