  • The Magical World of Harry Potter

    Harry Potter fans, it’s time to uncover your wizarding identity! Harry Potter has come to CTY Greece! This fantasy book series has gained immense popularity, critical acclaim and commercial success worldwide. The students in the Magical World of Harry Potter course immerse themselves in the adventures of Harry Potter and his friends, Ron and Hermione. Each student gets “sorted” into one of the Hogwarts houses – Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin. The students discover the surprising nature of Harry’s world through an analysis of plot, character, theme and symbolism and the attempt to answer the course focal question: “Is Harry Potter a literary hero?”. The students keep an ongoing artistic journal that they share with their fellow students and participate in spell quizzes that will get them in closer touch with J.K. Rowling’s magical world. So, if you have followed Harry’s adventures in all his books or in all his movies, this is the course for you! A magical CTY Greece weekend is just a swish and flick away! Alohomora!
