Today, The Weasleys have met one of the most popular characters of Hogwarts, the Muggle-born Hermione Granger. Before this, they have been practising Past Simple and Past Perfect tenses.

Minister Hermione Jean Granger
was a Muggle-born witch born to Mr and Mrs Granger, both dentists. At
the age of eleven she learned that she was a witch, and had been
accepted into Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
She began attending Hogwarts and was Sorted into Gryffindor House. Hermione possessed a brilliant academic mind, and proved to be a gifted student in almost every subject that she studied.
Hermione had lots of bushy brown hair, brown eyes, a bossy sort of voice that would become slightly shrill when she was angry, and -as a child- rather large front teeth.
Hermione
never gave much attention to her appearance, and usually hid her
potential to be extremely pretty under her bushy hairstyle and a large
pile of books, which she kept slung on her back. She generally wore her
school uniform under her robes. Otherwise, she dressed casually.

Hermione first met Harry Potter and Ron Weasley aboard the Hogwarts Express. Both boys found Hermione unfriendly and somewhat of an insufferable know-it-all. Later, her eagerness to please her professors and her constant correct answers reinforced their initial impression. However, in spite of the cool relationship between the three, Hermione stepped in to take the blame from Ron and Harry after they had saved her from a troll on Hallowe'en. Harry and Ron were surprised, but grateful and the three quickly became friends.
In her second year, Hermione played a crucial role in the discovery of the Chamber of Secrets, before falling victim to the basilisk unleashed upon Hogwarts following the opening of the Chamber.
She was
recovered from her petrification under the care of Madam Pomfrey, with
the assistance of Professor Sprout's Mandrake Restorative Draught.
The next year, Hermione
was granted permission to use a Time-Turner from the Ministry of Magic
to facilitate her volition to study far more subjects than was possible
without time travel. Later in the year, she and Harry would use the
Time-Turner to rescue Sirius Black from the Dementor's Kiss as well as
Buckbeak the hippogriff from execution.

During her fourth year at Hogwarts,
Hermione became an advocate for the better treatment of house-elves,
forming the association S.P.E.W. She also helped Harry prepare for the
Triwizard Tournament. In her fifth year, she was the driving force
behind the creation of Dumbledore's Army.

Later in
her fifth year, she fought alongside fellow D.A. members in the Battle
of the Department of Mysteries and in her sixth year, she fought in the
Battle of the Astronomy Tower.
Hermione played a significant role in many other battles of the Second Wizarding War, as well. She fought in the Battle of the Seven Potters, alongside the Order of the Phoenix. She and Ron both decided not to return to Hogwarts for their final year of studies, instead choosing to accompany Harry on his quest to find and destroy Lord Voldemort's Horcruxes.

Hermione
then fought in the Battle of Hogwarts, as well as destroying
Hufflepuff's Cup, a Horcrux with Ron Weasley, using a basilisk fang
found in the Chamber of Secrets, then opened by Ron imitating Harry
saying open in Parseltongue.
Upon
turning eleven, Hermione was surprised to learn that she was a witch
and was invited to attend Hogwarts. She eagerly accepted and took to
studying magic even before she began her first year at Hogwarts,
learning all the set spellbooks by heart and even managing to perform a
few spells successfully.
In
addition to the texts set by the school, Hermione brought with her
several other books for reference and to further her understanding of
the wizarding world.
Hermione enjoyed her years as a pupil at Hogwarts, and took assignments, classes, and school rules very seriously. She was often described as the brightest witch of her age. Her favourite subject was initially Charms, and later Arithmancy. The only areas of study that gave her trouble were Flying and Divination.

Hermione was a couple of weeks away from turning twelve when she boarded the Hogwarts Express, where she met Harry Potter and Ron Weasley while helping Neville Longbottom find his pet toad, Trevor.

The
friendship between Harry, Ron and Hermione was solidified when, on
Hallowe'en, the three were forced to confront a mountain troll, which
had been let into the school by Professor Quirinus Quirrell.
Before her fourth year at Hogwarts, Hermione spent much of the summer holidays at the Burrow with Harry and Ron, sharing a room with Ginny Weasley. With the other Weasleys, excluding Molly Weasley, they attended the Quidditch World Cup in August.
Following the death of Cedric Diggory, the Ministry of Magic refused to accept Harry and Dumbledore's claims that Lord Voldemort had returned, and the Daily Prophet labelled them either liars or nutters.

However, Hermione
and Ron believed Harry and defended him against the criticism of
doubtful classmates. Though occasionally Harry vented his frustration at
them, Hermione and Ron stuck by him.
They also wanted to become members
of the reconvened Order of the Phoenix but were not allowed to because
they were under-age.
Hermione helped exterminate 12 Grimmauld Place,
which served as headquarters for the Order, and was immensely relieved
when Harry was acquitted of the charge of having used under-age magic.
Also before returning to Hogwarts, she and Ron learned that they had
been appointed prefects for Gryffindor house and received badges. She
took her position very seriously.
During the funeral of Albus Dumbledore, Hermione was comforted by Ron and cried on his shoulder. Afterwards, Harry told them about his desire to drop out of Hogwarts to hunt Horcruxes, which were the key to defeating Lord Voldemort.

Despite his protests, Hermione and Ron promised to forgo
their seventh year of school in order to assist Harry. Before leaving
the school, Hermione was able to Summon books about Horcruxes from
Dumbledore's office, where the late headmaster had kept them after the
subject had been banned at Hogwarts.

Hermione
began planning for her journey with Harry and Ron immediately. She
Summoned books about Horcruxes from Dumbledore's office so as to learn
how to destroy the items.
Concerned for the safety of her family, she
altered her parents' memories to make them think they were Wendell and
Monica Wilkins and sent them to hide in Australia, no longer aware of
their original identities, the existence of their daughter, or anything
she had told them about Harry.
She also withdrew all of her savings at
her building society account, in event of a need for Muggle money.
Hermione then joined with the Order of the Phoenix in the operation to remove Harry from 4 Privet Drive before his 17th birthday, taking Polyjuice Potion to become one of the seven Potters.

The
Battle of Hogwarts soon resumed, and Hermione fought Bellatrix
Lestrange alongside Ginny and Luna, despite being hindered by using
Bellatrix's own wand against her. When Bellatrix nearly killed Ginny,
Molly Weasley took over the fight and killed Bellatrix.
Hermione
witnessed Harry's final defeat of Lord Voldemort, and she and Ron
reached him first, overjoyed. Hermione survived the battle relatively
unscathed, only suffering minor injuries and burns she received from
entering the Lestrange's Vault shortly before the battle.
Following the Second Wizarding War, Hermione went back to Hogwarts
to complete her education. She later found employment with the Ministry
of Magic, furthering the cause for the better treatment of house-elves.
Afterward she was promoted to the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. She eventually married Ron Weasley and together they had two children, Rose and Hugo. Hermione became the godmother of Harry and Ginny Potter's eldest son James. She had become the Minister for Magic.
