Slytherin

Founded by Salazar Slytherin

In establishing the house, Salazar instructed the Sothing Hat to pick students who had a few particular characteristics he most valued. Those characteristics included cunning, resourcefulness, leadership, and ambition.

Many Slytherin students tended to clique together (often acquiring leaders) which further exemplified Slytherin's ambitious qualities.

The founder highly valued and favored pure-blood students and the Sorting Hat admitted that it could be a factor when being sorted. Students of any blood status could be placed in the house. However, a Muggle-born student from that house was considered to be quite rare.

The emblematic animal of the house was a snake and the house's colors were green and silver. There were two notable heads of the house; 

Slytherin corresponded roughly with the element of water due to serpents being commonly associated with the sea and lochs in western European mythology, as well as serpents being physically fluid and flexible animals. Similarly, in Celtic mythology, water is seen as a portal to another world, leading some to believe that the element was chosen to symbolise a Slytherin's dream for a world in which their goals and ambitions had finally been achieved. Others speculate that it was chosen to symbolise many Slytherins' hope for a pureblood-only wizarding society.

The colors also corresponded with waters around lakes and lochs often being green, and silver being often associated with grey rainwater.

Ravenclaw

Founded by Rowena Ravenclaw

Members of this house were characterized by their wit, learning, and wisdom.
The emblematic animal symbol was an Eagle
Blue and Bronze were its colors

Ravenclaw corresponded roughly to the element of Air, and it was for that reason that the House colors were chosen; blue and bronze represented the sky and eagle feathers respectively, both having much to do with air. The Ravenclaw points hourglass contained blue sapphires.

Ravenclaw House prized learning, wisdom, wit, and intellect in its members.Thus, many Ravenclaws tended to be academically motivated and talented students. They also prided themselves on being original in their ideas, and methods. It was not unusual to find Ravenclaw students practising especially different types of magic that other houses might shun.

Often hard-working and diligent, as often was the case with intellectuals with a predisposition for academics, some of the pupils sorted under the blue-bronzed eagle were known to be inclined to dismiss certain social expectations for the sake of satisfying their own intellectual curiosity. Some of these eventually also ended up being not only accepted but even celebrated, in spite of being initially subjected to scorn for their various oddities.

Ravenclaws tended to be curious about the world and paid attention to the world around them. Ravenclaws were known to be logical and rational. In addition, Ravenclaw students tended to have abilities regarding Memory.

Hufflepuff

Hufflepuff was founded by Helga Hufflepuff


 Hufflepuff was the most inclusive among the four houses, valuing hard work, dedication, patience, loyalty, and fair play rather than a particular aptitude in its members.

The emblematic animal was a badger,
and yellow and black were its house colors

Hufflepuff corresponded roughly to the element of earth,
House colors were chosen: yellow represented wheat, while black was emblematic of soil.
The Hufflepuff hourglass contained yellow diamonds.
 

Students sorted into Hufflepuff often demonstrated strong abilities in Herbology owing to their correspondence to earth.

Gryffindor

 Founded by Godric Gryffindor

Gryffindor instructed the Sorting Hat to choose students possessing characteristics he most valued, such as courage, chivalry, nerve and  determination, for his house.

The emblematic animal was a Lion a
its colors were scarlet and gold
Gryffindor corresponded roughly to the element of Fire and it was for this reason that the colors scarlet and gold were chosen to represent the house.
The colour of fire corresponded to that of a lion as well, with scarlet representing the mane and tail and gold representing the coat.
and its house hourglass was filled with rubies.

The Gryffindor motto was "Forti Animo Estote", which means Be of Good Courage

The Gryffindor house emphasized the traits of courage as well as "daring, nerve, and chivalry" and thus its members were generally regarded as brave, though sometimes to the point of recklessness. Some Gryffindors had also been noted to be short-tempered.

Notably, Gryffindor house contributed many members to Dumbledore's Army although this may have been because the main members made it a point not to associate with other houses.

According to members of other houses, particularly Slythern, sometimes felt that Gryffindors engaged in "pointless heroics". Another Slytherin,  considered many Gryffindors to be self-righteous and arrogant, with no regard for rules.
