Charms VII ~ *Lesson 1/5*

[The Forgotten Weasley]

Build me up from bones;
Wrap me up in skin.
Hold me close enough to breathe me in...
The moon’s a fingernail,
Scratching on the back-
Of the night in which we lay beside.

Elsie was almost glad she was teaching the seventh years in the middle of the week; she wouldn't have wanted to have them on a Monday, or on a Friday. But they'd all signed up to be here, so she wasn't really anticipating many problems. She stood up with a small sigh as the one o'clock bell began to ring, and checked the board; in one corner the class rules were neatly outlined; in another the homework assignment, in yet another the supply list, and in the final corner, a doodle that looked like it had been scrawled by a student and smudged over, as the students began to enter the room.

When the small class was seated, she addressed them. "Good afternoon everyone, and welcome back to Hogwarts for the final time. I'm afraid there's really not that much left for me to teach you- except to prepare you properly for your NEWT this year. As there is no seventh year curriculum, this year will be devoted to review of prior material and practice for the exam." She stood up, walking around from behind the desk, a piece of parchment in hand. "Now is the perfect time for any questions or concerns about the NEWT, especially if you are unfamiliar with how it differs from the OWL."

I held every inch of you...
I wrote every line for you...
I made time when time was all but gone.
You’re the love I’ve always known-
The night’s so dark and grey;
But you’ve helped me find my way.

Elsie kept with the same routine as the class prior, staying seated at her desk while she marked attendance. "I have materials all up here for you to come and take and practice on as you like- items to summon and banish, and shrink and enlarge. Take whatever you want at your leisure. Any questions or concerns, let me know." There was no point in her hovering over them like a mother hen; if they needed her help, they would ask. And she had plenty of papers to grade in the mean time. She did keep a slightly warier eye on the students, given the fact that she didn't want any engorgio charms going awry and leaving her with a massive teapot to take care of.

Elsie kept with the same routine as the class prior, staying seated at her desk while she marked attendance. "I have materials all up here for you to come and take and practice on as you like- clocks to silence, two chairs to practice dancing feet on, and some cups to fill with repleo. Take whatever you want at your leisure. Any questions or concerns, let me know." There was no point in her hovering over them like a mother hen; if they needed her help, they would ask. And she had plenty of papers to grade in the mean time. The only charm from fourth year she'd neglected was reducto, because that wasn't something you could just practice willy-nilly.

Tsubaki Natsumi Yuko
Seventh Year Slytherin
Pureblood ☾ Parselmouth

Location : Charms - Wednesday @ 1:00pm


Tsubaki already knew that her classes were review. Something she could do on her own without a professor breathing down her neck. However, the seventh year wasn’t expecting Charms to be nothing more then a question and answer period. For starters she didn’t have any questions never mind concerns about the topic of NEWT level testing. They were three terms away and she was hardly worried about her abilities with Charm work.

Sitting in class on a Wednesday afternoon, Tsubaki just wanted to be anywhere but there. The look on her face pretty much gave that away. Chances were she wouldn’t deny it either. “It’s just a practical exam isn’t it?” She questioned aloud. Part of her meant to keep that to herself but it flew out and was clearly too late to keep in. Oh well looks like she was apart of the conversation now. Like it or not…


Status : This is a wasted class...
Company : Class...

Quick, eh? Easy enough
You're right, you certainly belong in
Slytherin!

 

[Graydon Ironshield]

Faina Patrovna
Slytherin Prefect │ Seventh Year │ Seventeen Years Old │ Single
Dueling Club Captain



Charms was one of those classes Faina considered to be essential to her career hopes, and so she studied her old Charms books and notes over the summer in preparation for this term and for the NEWT exams at the end of the term. She knew this term was going to be mostly review anyway, but she wasn't going to use that as an excuse to sluff off. As far as Faina was concerned, anything less than an 'Outstanding' in Charms would be unacceptable.

Faina offered Tsubaki a smile and a nod as she sat down beside her in Charms class, and got out her study materials. When her Housemate asked her question, Faina decided to add a follow-up to the mix. "Yeah, what sort of format will it be, Professor? Are the examiners just going to ask us to cast our repertoire of Charms one after the next, or are they going to give us puzzles or situations we need to resolve?"

"And you ask me what I want this year
And I try to make this kind and clear
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
Cuz I don't need boxes wrapped in strings
And desire and love and empty things
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days"

Elsie kept with the same routine as the class prior, staying seated at her desk while she marked attendance. "I can't give you the specific outline of the exam, but I can tell you that there is no written section, and you will be required to test you practical knowledge of charms through various situations. I have materials all up here for you to come and take and practice on as you like- items to summon and banish, and shrink and enlarge. Take whatever you want at your leisure. Any questions or concerns, let me know." There was no point in her hovering over them like a mother hen; if they needed her help, they would ask. And she had plenty of papers to grade in the mean time. She did keep a slightly warier eye on the students, given the fact that she didn't want any engorgio charms going awry and leaving her with a massive teapot to take care of.
