美国老师为学生布置哈利·波特魔法主题教室

 

"One of the toughest things as a reading teacher is instilling¹ a love of reading in students that do not like reading," Stephens, 31, wrote to ABC News of her magical "Harry² Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone"-themed classroom. "This year, I chose to go with a Harry Potter theme because if I am excited and enthusiastic, students tend to follow suit. My goal is to help students find at least one book or genre³ that they can find exciting and be as enthusiastic about as I am regarding Harry Potter."

 

When her kids walked into her elective reading and math classroom on the first day of school Aug. 20, they were all excited to take a tour of the room that felt like they had walked straight into Hogwarts.

 

"The majority of students loved the potions most!," Stephens wrote.

 

It took the creative teacher a week to plan and order the different book-themed items.

 

"I thought of everything that happened in "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone," she explained. " I chose to keep with only the first book regarding decorating. I made a list of things that I could decorate the room with. I thought of all the magical things Harry saw and experienced and put myself in his shoes and picked the things that I could pull off in a classroom. I never got to a broom or mirror, but I plan to add that to my room at a later time."

 

Stephens and her husband are such avid⁴ fans of the "Harry Potter" books and movies that she says they actually "fall asleep to a ‘Harry Potter’ movie every night."

 

She's encouraging her students to be enthusiastic about school and learning by splitting⁵ her classes up into different "houses" where they will earn "house points" for positive behavior.
