1) CORRECTION

Here are the corrections for Chapter 15.

Remember to correct in red, copying all the solutions. You must have the same information as me. Keep your notebooks clean, organised, and make sure everything is in the correct section.

I WILL CORRECT YOUR NOTEBOOKS.

SENTENCES CORRECTION: Your sentences need to look exactly like these ones:

1) Things couldn’t have BEEN worse.

2) Filch took them DOWN to Professor McGonagall’s study on the first floor, where they SAT and WAITED without saying a word to each other.

3) He couldn’t see HOW they were going to get OUT of trouble this time.

4) How could they HAVE been so stupid AS to forget the Cloak.

5)  Had Harry THOUGHT that things COULDN’T have been worse?

6) ‘I think I’ve GOT a good idea of what’s been GOING on,’ said Professor McGonagall.

7) You, Miss Granger, I THOUGHT you had MORE sense. As for you, Mr Potter, I thought Gryffindor MEANT more to you than this. All three of you will RECEIVE detentions.

8)  ‘Fifty points EACH’ said Professor McGonagall, breathing heavily THROUGH her long POINTED nose. ‘Professor – please –’ ‘You can’t –’ ‘Don’t tell me what I can and CAN’T do, Potter.

9) ‘No – no – not again, please –’ It sounded as though someone was THREATENING him. Harry MOVED closer. ‘All right – all right –’ he heard Quirrell sob. Next second, Quirrell came hurrying out of the classroom, straightening his TURBAN.

10) The FOLLOWING morning, notes were delivered to Harry, Hermione and Neville at the breakfast table. They WERE all the same: Your detention will take place at eleven O’CLOCK tonight.
