In Tuesday's chapter, Harry got his supplies for school, and in today's chapter, he's on his way to his brand new school, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry! As he gets ready to board the Hogwarts Express, Harry is crossing over the threshold from what he knows to a world completely new and unknown to him just like Odysseus in The Odyssey (for my 9th graders) and Gilgamesh and Beowulf (for my 10th graders), so it's about time that he starts meeting some friends (or sidekicks) who are going to help him through his journey.
Today, we're going to continue working on the Psychological lens for Chapter 6 to gain a deeper insight and understanding into the characters and their personalities. (More information about the Psychological Lens is on yesterday's blog post if you missed it.)
TO DO FOR THURSDAY, APRIL 23:
- Read Chapter 6
- This is a link to the ebook
- This is a link to the audiobook (you do not need an account to listen)
- Note: The audiobook is for the British version of the book, so the title is different and some words might be different if you are following along on the PDF. However, Stephen Fry (the narrator) is an amazing reader, and I highly recommend listening to the audiobook.
- Complete the Psychological Lens Form for Chapter 6
- Read the chapter slowly and deliberately and think about the questions above while reading.
- You will need to log into your Office365 account in order to complete the form. Email me or send me a Remind if you have problems logging in. (This seemed to work for people yesterday.)
As always, I am available via email and through Remind. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you need me. 😊
