Welcome to a collection of activities for one of the best series ever written.  Browse the book links to the left for specific activities, or look below for general lessons involving all the books.

Most ideas and lessons have been created by other teachers, and all original websites are credited on the links.  I often chose to cut and paste the ideas onto a word document so you can edit the content and directions.  This also keeps the information safe when websites no longer exist.  If you would like to add an activity or idea, send it here!

Order an excellent collection of essays that dig deeper into the Harry Potter series and it's resulting fandom.
