| Synopsis The phenomenon of Harry Potter is mind-blowing. On buses, in parks, on the playground -- kids can't stop reading and rereading this new classic series. Not only are the stories compelling and inventive, but Harry is also a dynamic blend of realism and magic -- both traits appealing to young readers. Educators around the world are beginning to realize that Harry Potter could hold a significant place in the classroom. The stories lend themselves to much discussion and debate, as well as being stepping-stones to other subjects. Enter the Literature Guides from Scholastic. These handy booklets present each Harry Potter title in a perfect format for teaching. Summaries, class projects, activities, and questions are included, as well as cross-curricular activities with art, literature, social studies, and more. In the literature guide to Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, students are asked to think about the book's themes, vocabulary, and characters, as well as specific plot details. Teachers can also ask them to find music to match exciting chapters in the book or research one of the many imaginary creatures featured in the book and describe its history and use in other literature. Treat your students to an in-depth discussion of the most popular writer to date -- and become the most popular teacher in town! |
