Chapter Fifteen - The Goblin's Revenge

Harry and Ron have a big argument in this chapter, and Hermione does not get very involved. In groups of three, take turns playing the parts of Ron, Harry, and Hermione. What might Hermione have said to make Ron stay? How might she have helped prevent the argument from causing Ron to leave? Is there something more she could have done? Take turns trying to resolve the argument as Hermione. After you've each taken a turn, discuss why you think the argument turned out the way it did.
