Book blog #9- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

While i am gliding my reading journey through the finale of Harry Potter,i have came up of another theory. My new theory is How is Hogwarts school of witchcraft and whizardry relevant and different to ms51?. My first guess for children to say that it's different because we can't apparate into the building or fly in through magical brooms. This school is very unique and alot to show and offer, starting now.

Hogwarts is similar to ms51 because of education and friendship. It's relevant due to education because we all learn different things that might suprise us in our everyday life but we all find it useful and who knows? It might save you from death killing people such as Snape and Dementors. It's relevant due to friendship because just like in all schools, we all have to make friends or so called "Peers". They will help you on through your daily lives and so will teachers of course, but the "Peers" can connect more since they make be in the same range of age. Its also relevant due to friendship because of frivolous problems that might occur.

School is very important for you, since it guides you to the next step into your life such as your 1rst job/career. Jobs in this story end up for a group of people to muster and end up not having what they want. Instead, they end up getting what they deserved/earned. You wouldnt want to be the person to have something they don't like to do? No! you would want to have something you enjoy doing.

Book blog #8- Harry Potter and the deathly hallows

Why does J.K.Rowling chose Harry,Ron, and Hermoine as the teenagers to represent the social life of Hogwarts school of witchcraft and whizardy?. I know i may have been doing other blogs on this book but its because i don't want to rush my journey through the finale of Harry Potter.Anyways, these threee teenagers each have a gift in their own special way that J.K.Rowling put them as the main characters of this novel.

Hermoine's gift was definitely her knowledge. She is a sweet,brilliant,charming girl who knows so many unique spells that Harry might not even know. She used a spell for her parents to not remember her and she was forgotten,so she can go with Harry and Ron. Not only did she use this spell for various reasons,but she uses theses speels outside of class time,just like any other type of student except she uses it with her ability to control it and let it be free.

Ron's gift was definitely his humor. Countless times he would make character in this book laugh and giggle so many times that they may have even started to cry. Ron also has another gift which is hospitatility. I feel that no matter what times it may be Ron will welcome anybody that has a heart into their house and care for them as if they were related. Ron has a heart that makes his light shine for a main character role.

Last but not least, Harry's gift was not his scar but it was his theories that he created from little facts and he kind of became a detective to solve these theories and he did that for every book in the series. I think that's really creative unique, for J.K.Rowling to do that with a character. Sometimes everybody wishes they can have that time to shine,just like Harry got to.

Book blog #7-Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Reading this book is really interesting,more interesting than when i put this book down for a while and read a different book.Harry Potter is no book you can pick up and put down. You might have to stick to it in your whole reading life.

As i was watching the movie, i began to develop a theory in my head. My theory is "Is snape a two faced person?". I began this theory because i was watching Harry Potter and the goblet of fire yesterday and saw
that Snape had protected Harry with his wand while Dumbledore was helping Harry out. Harry was being attacked by Mad-eye moody but turned out to be the old ministers son. The polyjuice potion expired on him right at the moment he was caught. In Harry Potter and the Half-blood prince, Snape had maimed Dumbledore with a killing charm and killed Dumbledore. That to me makes Snape a two faced person. He is also very malicious.

As i read more of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, i also thought up of another theory. Ever since Dumbledore had passed away things have gotten horribly wrong at Hogwarts. So far into the book, there is no headmaster and i can connect to Harry and the students of Hogwarts. For Harry's connection, I had someone very close to me pass away and i can never get over the fact that this person is dead. It pains my heart to see that someone who cares other than himself like Dumbledore died when a person who is two faced and has no manners like Snape still be alive and wasting a life that some other good person may have.

For the students at Hogwarts, i can connect to them because my former principal Mr. Mateo had retired and he was such a great principal because not only was he a principal but he was a fatherly figure to the students of my old school (P.S.39)who helped these kids and cared for them as if they were his own children. Until my 4th grade year,Mr. Mateo retired and we had a new principal named Ms.depaz. She was ok in my perspective but i couldnt feel that vibe between us. The vibe that she couldnt be my new motherly figure, my astonishing new leader.
