Promise Review Game of Quidditch, Give Harry Potter background EPISODE 3: Quidditch Rules ACTIVITY: Assign Roles Divide students into 4 houses (6 per house) who put on pinnies: Griffyndor (Red), Slytherin (Green), Hufflepuff (Yellow), and Ravenclaw (Blue). Time: <> 5 min. EPISODE 4: Quidditch Rules ACTIVITY: Directions All chasers try to score on the other 3 house goals. They MUST report to the scorekeeper (teacher) after each goal and they cannot score on the same house twice in a row. Chasers use the yarn ball "quaffles" (color doesn't matter to score, but each chaser will start with a ball of their house color) to score goals with their sticks. Keepers defend their house goal. All beaters use the gator skin "bludgers" (1 for each house color) to throw at the other players. Players hit with a bludger are frozen for 10 seconds. They must drop any quaffles or bludgers they have. C r En ea de ted rs b R yE oa d d K El up em ie en c ta ry Students are assigned to roles within each house: 1 - Keeper w/ stick 3 - Chasers w/ stick (extra students are placed here) 2 - Beaters (no sticks) 1 - Seeker (no sticks) Teaching style: A - Command ol Time: <> 10 min. Sc ho Teaching style: A - Command Students will rotate roles throught Teaching style: A - Command Time: <> 2 min. Seekers look for the 10 golden snitches (bean bags) that are hidden. If they find one, they run and whisper the location to the teacher (Keep secret). If they are the first to find a snitch, they get credit for the find. Teaching style: A - Command Time: <> 2 min. EPISODE 5: Quidditch ACTIVITY: Students Play Students play the game of Quidditch.

Seekers will not know when all the snitches have been found. Students SHOULD NOT tell other players of the locations of the snitches because there may be time to play additional games.
