" HARRY POTTER AND THE FIVE MAGIC WAND TO KNOW BETTER OUR COMMON

The lesson is aimed at elementary school children. The overall objective is to help children to read and interpret the complexity of where they live, through a conceptual reorganization. In particular, the lesson is to:

a) make children more aware of where they live, its merits and its defects;

b) giving children some pictures and some ideas to express qualities and defects of the place where they live;

c) give children some ideas to imagine a city suitable for children

d) put the basis for a class action on the reality that is around

" of you know Harry Potter?". A forest of raised hands waving in the classroom. Desire to explain that they have seen the movie, read the books (or if the facts are read by parents or siblings) have an even Harry Potter video game, someone's glasses as he or other gadgets. We broke the ice. Harry Potter allows me to Crerar few minutes in a doorway. It 'nice to have books in common, it helps to understand each other!

I used Harry Potter the same way in which Perseus used the shield to kill the Medusa. The myth says that no one could look directly into the eyes of Medusa without being turned to stone, but without looking at how to kill her in the eye? The wily Perseus had a brilliant idea (simple solutions are always brilliant!) Took the shield that Athena had given him and, looking at the reflected image of Medusa on the shield, kills her. Harry Potter was for me the shield is hard in two hours I managed to speak to the complexity of the world around children with a direct approach to the topic.
