Outlining the plot: Stealing a locket

One plot used in many movies, is an elaborate plan that is executed with some problems. For example, some people may plan to rob a bank, and then when they do it their plan falls apart because something happened they did not consider.

Use a graphic organizer like this one to describe Harry, Hermione, and Ron’s plan to steal Umbridge’s locket. You will have many more than three steps, but this picture has a good structure to get you started.

When you read through the chapter figure out what goes wrong, and then show how the actual plan was different than the plan they imagined.

Be sure to include at least 7 events or facts from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows(TM).

If you want to share your completed graphic organizer, you can upload it here.
