Harry Potter Camp Week 3

Monday: Begin care of Magical Creatures. See a clip about a real unicorn . Watch trailer for Deathly Hallows Part I
Tuesday:  Houses Slytherin/Ravenclaw are invited to share any magical creatures that they have at home, so Rosie the magical bulldog attends Harry Potter Camp. Discuss her amazing ability to tell if you are in the treat cupboard, even if she is on the other side of the house. She also has magical white hair that is guaranteed to stick to anything black. Also in attendance were 2 bearded dragons.
Wednesday: Gryffendor/Hufflpuff magical creatures come to Hogwarts. They included a lot of magic dogs, and a toad.
Thursday: A Magical visit from the Willow Park Zoo Outreach Center. Guests included a screech owl named Gloria, a boa constrictor and another bearded dragon. The Slytherin seeker found the snitch, and Slytherin is in the lead for the House Cup by about 65 points.
Next week, Professor Snape is coming to teach potions. This is so awesome!

Harry Potter Camp Week 2

Harry Potter Camp Week 2

Monday: Started the study of space and how it relates to Harry Potter
Tuesday: Played "Where's Voldemort" a hide and seek type game, but you "cast spells" when you see another person. The person who shoots their spell first wins. Made new Slytherin badges with V.S. after school.
Wednesday: Spray painted planets...look really cool! Had hair done, and put green glitter extensions in to match the Slytherin Green.
Thursday: Watch movie 2 with TREATS!

Oh yeah, this is still way AWESOME!

Yeah, it's awesome!

Greatest Show on Earth

 The Lord gave each and everyone

The spunk to do what can't be done

The brawn, the brain, the courage and the heart

The strength to bend the strongest bar

The will to reach the farthest star

It's just a case of learning how to start.

To build a tower up so high to a cloud you'll anchor

Build it one tiny brick at a time

Bucks multiply till a bum's a banker

Just begin with a thin silver dime

That empty feild it can yeild miles and miles of flowers

You don't need no magic powers

Just a seed and showers

From the floor to the sky

You can soar if you're wise enough to climb

One brick at a time

--- Jim Dale ---
