HOGWARTS week 3

week 3 at Hogwarts my son was in Gryffindor again. He got a large amount of points this week and gave Gryffindor a big lead.

His lessons were as follows:

Gringotts vault - this was a general lesson. it was a box i had made with holes cut in it and a plastic cup in each (think halloween punch out game). each cup had a small gift/item inside and was then covered in gold paper and had a "harry potter" number added to it. These numbers were also on keys that had been hidden around the house with clues.

Dragon impressions - this was a care of magical creatures lesson and what dragons meant to my son.

Bertie Bots challenge - this was 2 parts. part 1 was how many beans were in it (son spent ages weighing jellybeans, and proper trying to work out total) the 2nd part was guessing flavours from appearance and possible smell and then eating them to see if correct.

magical store - making his own magical store and writing about what it sells etc

inverted balloon - this involved heating a glass bottle and placing a balloon on top and it *should* suck the balloon into the bottle.

He was sorted into hufflepuff for next week
