STEP 1 - SCUOLA MEDIA LEONARDO DA VINCI - IC2 POGGIBONSI, Italy

We have been working on the E-Twinning Project with classes  3B, 3C and 3D from Scuola Media Leonardo Da Vinci in Poggibonsi.

When we were asked to work on Step 1 "Who am I?" and find some interesting books to read with our students, our choice fell on “Harry Potter and The Philosopher’s Stone” which has become the third best-seller book of all time.

Step 1 has taken three / four weeks to be carried out.

WEEK 1: We invited students to read some short extracts from chapters 1, 4 and 7 of the book and then answer to a list of questions we prepared to check their comprehension.

WEEK 2: We focused on the “The Sorting Hat” chapter. This is when students at Hogwarts magic school are sorted into the four different houses Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and Slytherin. The pages are interesting because the magic hat is able to do this “job” easily enough by simply considering students’ personalities and matching them with the qualities and values represented by each house. Our aim was to offer students a good range of useful adjectives to be used to write their  introductions on the blog page.

WEEK 3: Inspired by the readings students were encouraged to introduce themselves on the blog page.

WEEK 4: We asked students to take a quick QUIZ to find out which Hogwarts House they would be in.


Which Hogwarts House would you be in?


Let the Sorting Hat Quiz match your traits with the four houses of the wizarding world to find out which Hogwarts House you would be in. 


Gryffindor: You are chivalrous, passionate, and brave. You have a highly-defined sense of right and wrong, and you are not afraid to speak your mind or fight for what you want.  

Slytherin: 
You are ambitious, sneaky, resourceful, and not afraid to bend the rules to your advantage. 

Ravenclaw: 
You are intelligent, witty, wise, perceptive, and quietly brilliant.  


Hufflepuff: You are patient, loyal, hard-working, reserved, rational, and down-to-earth. You work well with others, are a great team player, and you always take a stand against injustice. 

Take this quiz and answer the questions to find out which of the four magical Hogwarts houses the Sorting Hat will put you in! 

What is your result?

Once they wrote their introductions on the padlet our students was given the possibility to read about other students' descriptions and interact with them. It was fun, inspiring and surprisingly motivating!!😊
