So I stumbled across this problem in my textbook for 'Elementary Educator's Numbers and Operations' course. (a college level math class) and I actually did a little dance of joy ( Read more... )

That's hilarious! I feel the same way when there's an HP reference in movies :-)

Definitely true. I get way too excited about it, even in crappy movies.

Wow. That is so freaking awesome. I would have died if I had started reading a text book and had suddenly run into the word "Hermione"... would have first wondered if I had fallen asleep reading the text.

See, this is why I'm so sure that an HP themed school system for kids would be really good. I know I would have learned FAR more if all math problems had included Hermione!

I really am quite serious about wanting to start a private school for kids who would otherwise be home schooled, and I'd base the whole curriculum around HP. Things like this, what you shared, would be perfect... they'd learn what was necessary, but have fun learning it.

I wish I could GO to this imaginary school... haha

Every day that I go to school I'm a little sad that it isn't Hogwarts...
