Harry Potter chapter 3


Chapter 3: Journal Question

Uncle Vernon seems to be going crazy throughout chapter 3. Explain the reason for his madness and identify at least 3 examples from chapter 3 that demonstrate his strange behaviour?

The reason why Uncle Vernon is going crazy and is mad in chapter 3 is because Harry is recieving letters in which Uncle Vernon destroys prompting a veritable deluge of letters over the next few days.In chapter 3 Uncle Vernon is getting annoyed on how much Harry is recieving all these letters so Uncle Vernon attempts to outrun the delivery of letters and eventually takes his family to an abandoned hut on an island in the ocean. Three examples from chapter 3 is that they go to this railway hotel and they find out what room Harry is staying in which is room 17 and he still recieve's mail and Dudley gets his new school uniform and also his Uncle gets annoyed so he slams the mail box closed to stop Harry from recieving letters and mail and Harry's eleventh birthday comes and the Dursley's end up forgetting about it but in the end Harry remembers about it.

Harry Potter chapter 2


Chapter 2: Journal Question

How do you think Harry’s life would have been different if his parents were still alive? Consider the description of Harry’s life with the Dursleys in chapter 2 and identify how his life would be specifically changed if he had not been left on the doorstep of number 4 Privet Drive.

 I think Harry's life would of been better if his parents were still alive because his parents would of treated him more better then the Drusley's did and plus he wouldn't get ignored or hurt. The description of Harry's life with the Dursley's is that they never treated Harry very well they always ignored him and never payed attention to him they always had their eyes on Dudley. In chapter 2 Dudley got spoiled on his birthday and got everything he wanted where Harry got nothing then when the Dursley's said to Harry that his room was small for him under the stairs he went to sleep in Dudley's old room which half of the stuff in there was broken. Harry's life would of been so much better if the Dursley's haven't of been treating harry very well and left him on the doorstep of number 4 privet drive. I think Harry should of got treated more nicely and more better and he got his personal space and freedom.

Harry Potter Journal 1


Chapter 1 Journal Question:

Who is Harry Potter and why is he so special? Why does Dumbledore, knowing that Harry won’t be welcomed or treated well, leave him with the Dursleys? Include information from Chapter 1 to support your answer.

 In the first chapter Harry Potter find's out that he is a wizard and goes to Hogwarts school and a bunch of letters are sent to him. Harry is bewildered to discover how famous among all wizards and be called as "The boy who lived". He is so special because that he gets to go to Hogwart school and find out that he is magic because hes a young wizard. Knowing that harry wont be welcomed or treated well because dumbledore doesnt think that he wouldnt be ready for magic yet or be a real wizard so Harry Potter stays with the Dursleys and they show him and teach him how to be a real magical wizard so then in a month the dursleys show harry how to pass through the magical wall to catch the Hogwarts express at the kings cross railway station. Harry's friend Hagrid then bursts through the door to tell harry what the dursley's what they have been keeping from him finding out that harry is a wizard and is accepted at Hogwarts. Harry becomes addicted to the Mirror's visions and is rescued by Professor Dumbledore, who explains that it shows what the viewer most desperately longs for. In the end I think that Harry potter would be so ready to be a great magical wizard after he gets all his magical powers from Hogwarts school.

Harry Potter Anticipation

You should always support your friends.

I agree. I think that you should always support your friends when they get hurt or when they are being pressured against something. I know that I always support my friends and back them up when someone is being mean to them. I sometimes stand up for my friends and help out whenever they need it and I also try to be close to them when im not busy doing other things on my time thats why I think we should always support your friends.

What is a hero

One superhero and one real life hero to me is spiderman and my sister. One reason why I chose spiderman for my super hero is because he went out and saved the world. He also rescued people and kids from a fire in a building.   I chose my sister for a real life hero  because she is always there to help me out and talk to me when I need it. She  also stands up for me.  I chose spider man and my sister is because I like spider man and I also like both their clothes. The last reason why I chose my sister for my real life hero is because she is close  to me all the time and most of the time we hang out with each other at home.  At school she sometimes watches over me just to make sure I am okay.
