Chapter Challenges

[Iverian Gnash]

Along with our favorite stars reading Harry Potter chapter by chapter, Wizarding World is handing out chapter challenges! These chapter challenges are quizzes to test your knowledge on each chapter after you've listened to them being read.

Here is the chapter challenge to the newest (as of posting this) video for chapter 9! If these creative challenges aren't quite your thing, they also have multiple-choice quizzes! If you go here and scroll down to 'Chapter Quizzes' you can find all of the chapter quizzes and going to their features page and scrolling to the bottom under 'More to Explore' will show you all the chapter challenges!

Has anyone tried any of these out yet? How did you do?

[Prof. Maxim Trevelyan]

As a joke, I tried answering the questions before reading/re-reading the chapters. I believe that barring one or two questions, I already knew the answers, due to my Quidditch experience. Keep missing some though, and these were the ones I always have trouble with.

Such a fun and creative way to incorporate reader engagement!

[Prof. Sky Alton]

Yeah, I've been really impressed by the thought and creativity that's gone into the resources to accompany the readings. I think if I was a child discovering the book for the first time then the little writing/drawing/crafting challenges would have really helped bring it to life (and even as an adult, some of them got me wishing I had the time to do them). The quizzes were a fun way to procrastinate a few minutes - top marks on all of them (though probably because I've only just recently re-read PS).

I did do all of it seriously up to 11, then I got bored.

[Kasho Kakichi]

This is an amazingly interesting concept from a teaching perspective. The questions seem to be written to draw out creativity, improve their comprehension, and most importantly (in my opinion), it prompts one to use their imagination. We know the wizarding world is vast, but there is so much information given for readers to piece together and get a picture dramatically different from another reader. The great thing, though, is that both of them can be right because of the gaps intentionally left in the book so that we readers are forced to use our minds to read, answer the questions, and learn while having fun.

i love this idea!
