Harry Potter Session 15 & 16

This past week The Harry Potter Book Club talked about Mad-Eye Moody practicing the Unforgivable Curses on students. The curses have had an incredible impact on the students. Mrs. Russell and I were incredibly impressed to hear thoughtful responses. We also talked about fame and it’s effect on relationships.


Be sure you’ve read Chapters 19, 20, 21, and 22 of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. If you need a copy, be sure to see Mr. Bruff in room 30. We will discuss:

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

  • elf rights,
  • Mad-Eye Moody’s intentions,
  • the Tri-Wizard Tournament, and
  • the up and downsides fame,

If you did not receive a handout at the end of Session 15, check out the graphic organizer for the upcoming book club meeting.
