My school has decided to publish the workbook that I created for our Summer ESL language program. It was centered around a Harry Potter theme. I included writing pages (O.W.L.s), puzzles, games, arts and crafts, grammar pages, and a weekly potions class.
I think I will like potions class the best since included in the line up are the awesome Coke + mentos experiment, making our own butter beer, a fun ice cream punch recipe, and something I called "Dragon Tears" which roughly turns out to be carbonated Kool-aide. Over all I think it will be a success. i am really proud. I love Korea because I was actually able to use pictures from the movie with disregard for Copyright issues. You gotta love foreign countries. It looks awesome. We even sprang and got the cover in color. It is really lovely. I am super proud of it.
I also included some super cheesy slogans throughout, but the stuff sells like hotcakes here. FOr example, somewhere on the cover it reads, "Where learning is a magical experience..." haha I thought that was pretty funny myself, but they loved it. Also in some of the worksheets the students are racing to save the magical and muggle world from improper verb tense and incorrect capitalization. How can you go wrong with that? My favorite however whast the section with Mad Eye Moody for the worksheet choosing I (eye) or me with a huge picture of his weird eyeball thing. I was amused while doing this to say the least I hope you enjoy.
