HARRY POTTER CHALLENGE
Making learning visible is important to the Senior English Department. We have dedicated our time and effort to develop projects focused on learning as an enjoyable activity. The Harry Potter Project has given our Year 1 students the opportunity to enjoy J.K. Rowling's first novel, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. As part of this unit, students not only studied the work's literary elements, but also enjoyed flying dictations, performed magic tricks, played Quidditch, chess and participated in a magical Knowledge Bowl.
