OK, so here's how it works. The first poster puts up a word (usually a thing), and the next poster can take 6 steps to link that thing to Harry Potter (the character). Then they can post a new word. So it would look like this:
1st poster - band-aid
2nd poster- 1 - band-aids are for cuts. 2- when you get cut, you go see a nurse. 3- Madam Pomfrey is a nurse at Hogwarts. 4- Madam Pomfrey cures Harry Potter many times.
HARRY POTTER
next word: headphones
Ready? Link "headphones" to Harry Potter in 6 steps or less.

Yes Fangsfan! You can post the next word. Once you make the connection to Harry, you can just put the new word at the end of your post. Nice job!

Oh, I see now. The second poster puts all of the ties down.
I have played this game in the past were each person added a new line that linked the word then the next line to the next posters next line until the sixth line where the Harry Potter link is then made..
I think that way might have been a little more challenging but I will go back and do a complete with this one.
thanks for the nudge Erin.. My head is a little in a fog today. It is very cold in the Ice Box today and I have to go back in about an hour for several more lessons.
Oh the thoughts of retirement and sunshine on a beach creeping in...
