For assignment #7, Potterheads created birthday cards for Harry. Harry would’ve LOVED these! Payton’s birthday card for Harry: John’s birthday tidings for Harry: Charlie’s birthday wish for Harry: Killian’s birthday greetings:

This is it, Potterheads. The LAST chunk of The Sorcerer’s Stone and the LAST assignment. There are only the last three chapters for you to read, and they’re so exciting, I won’t be surprised if you finish them in one sitting. Since I’m posting this a bit late, let’s make sure you’ve finished the book…

We’re SO close to the end! In fact, if you’ve been pacing yourself with my weekly assignments, I predict you won’t be able to resist finishing the book after you read the next two chapters! Go ahead and devour what remains if you wish! However, I’m only going to assign chapters 13 and 14 for…

Inspired by the three-headed dog, Fluffy, and the mountain troll that terrified Harry, Ron, and Hermione in recent chapters, Middleboro’s Potterheads imagined their own fantastic beasts that could’ve been guarding the sorcerer’s stone or trolling the hallways scaring Hogwarts’ students. Beware! CHARLIE’S CHEWGOTHAGON The Chewgothagon has fangs that are three feet long. It uses it’s…

It’s hard to believe that EIGHT publishers turned down J.K. Rowling’s draft of the first book in the series. If it wasn’t for Bloomsbury Publishing we might not be the Potterheads we are!

Now that we’ve all been sorted into our houses, I’m sure we all feel like we’ve found our place in the magical world of Harry Potter. Next week’s chapters have the most, but not the last, adventures of what we’ve read so far. Read chapters 9 and 10 to meet the first, but again certainly not…

All of these photos of HBB and MKG students getting onto their own, homemade Platform 9 3/4s are INCREDIBLE! I love each one–SO creative in its own way! Thank you, Potterheads and Potterhead families for creating some photo magic for our entertainment! These pics are one of the highlights of the summer for sure. In fact,…

Mrs. Corey, the technology teacher in the HBB media center, recently went to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios in Florida, and she thoughtfully sent me oodles of photos. However I don’t want to spoil any plot developments, so I’m only sharing ones that we’d know based on where we are in The Sorcerer’s…

For this week’s assignment you’ll see that I’m inspired by page 117: When the Sorting Hat sings about all sorts of things, including in which Hogwarts House you’ll be! So read chapters seven and eight by a week from today’s even date. You’ll love them, I trust! Read through the night if you must because you…
