Half Blood Prince

Hey Everyone!! I know, I know, Dumbledore has been slacking!! I wanted to find out if you are all still interested in going to see the movie together when it comes out. Who would go??

Elephant Toothpaste

Well, we made the Elephant Toothpaste today and it was a big hit. I love how all the foam shot up out of the graduated cylinder!! Speaking of "wicked potions"....SNAPE comes to mind. In high school, Snape was considered an "outsider". What is it about him that made it difficult to connect with others?

Make Your Case

Who is the most gifted of all the characters in our poll? By gifted, I mean in any area....flying, academics, wizarding skills, leadership, creativity, etc... Remember, being gifted does not mean you are a whiz kid at everything. Gifted people have their own strengths and weaknesses. I can't wait to hear who you will choose. Don't forget to vote on our new poll.

Password Mania

Give me your best ideas for a password that the kids can give me as they come in the door to my Harry Potter class. Just want to see the weird things you come up with. Some of our past faves include: codswallop, Draco Dormiens Nunquam Titillandus, Portkey......

Next week I play Muggle Quidditch! Any memories from Harry Potter class? Tell me what you loved the most....what do you remember doing in class?
