Defense Against the Dark Arts Lesson 1

is now OPEN!

CHARMS LESSON I

When: Tuesday, May 21 - approximately 8:00 PM GMT
Where: The Charms Classroom
Who: All students, all houses
What to bring: Your wand, parchment, writing utensil, common sense

Read the rules. Don't be late. You WILL lose points.

It's time to make a real profit on the Ashwinder eggs you collected in class!

Directions

1. Meet Professor Barlow outside the barn this Saturday morning at 9 A.M. sharp. (OOC: You don't actually have to RP doing this, and I won't actually have Barlow there to meet your character.)
2. Together, we will walk into Hogsmeade and to the center I've set up for us to sell our eggs. (OOC: Again, we won't actually RP this.)
3. At the center, you'll have the opportunity to sell FIVE jars of eggs. Professor Barlow has added in enough jars, so that everyone has the opportunity to sell five.
4. You will receive house points for the number of jars you attempt to sell, but you can not sell more than five. You can make as many posts as you wish; however, you must make at least five to get credit. You can RP people either buying or not buying your eggs.
5. When you are done, please PM me a link to all posts you made either selling or attempting to sell your jars of eggs.
6. Be realistic. You are RPing a young student wishing to sell an ingredient to adults in the village. They won't be paying hefty amounts, and it's not realistic at all to RP them doing so. I don't want to squish your creativity, but I do want you to keep it realistic. Let's say you can't sell a jar for more than five galleons.
7. Finally, no one will actually be RPing the adults considering a purchase. You can just RP your own character and the actions of the villager they're trying to sell to.

Most of all, HAVE FUN! Please ready my homework guidelines here, so you'll know exactly how I'd like you to submit this.

Here's a link to the center.

Also, I'm really sorry about how fast this will need to go, but you only have until this Friday, May 24, to get this done. Why? Because this is happening at Hogsmeade, and that's when Hogsmeade closes. I'm not sure exactly what time it'll close, so you may want to get this done as soon as possible. The deadline to submit your links via PM is Friday, May 24 at 11:59 PM EST.

Arithmancy Lesson One

Who: All of you!!!! *points*

What: A chance to learn more on the mysteries of numbers

When: Monday May 20th @ approximately 8:30pm GMT

Where: Arithmancy Classroom

What to bring: Quill, parchment, textbook, and your brain are usually good things to have with you.

Anything else? Read my rules. Don't be late. I love you all and even moreso if you come to class!. Any questions, don't hesitate to PM/VM/msn me <3

Potions Assignment 1

Description: Brew your own potion as described in class

Due: Two week from the time and date of this post.

Worth: 20 points

Lesson One Homework

IC Instructions: During the lesson on Tasseomancy each of you learned how to properly do a tea leaf reading. For homework I would like for you to each do three more readings throughout the week: one first thing in the morning (or at breakfast), one midday and one before you go to bed. After each reading create a journal entry telling the symbols you see, which part of the cup they were in and what you think that means for you for that day or the next day depending on the time of each individual reading.

OOC Instructions: Three readings in three different posts. Each journal entry needs to have at least three symbols and the actual body of the entry where you connect it to your upcoming day or the question the reading is about should be one paragraph (5-6 sentences). For each post you don't have to do the reading quite as detailed as in the lesson but I would like for you to try and get the majority of the seven steps in your post. Include links to each post in your PM.

Worth: 15 points

Due: June 4th, 11:59 PM (EST)

GOOD NEWS!

Hogsmeade will be open until this Tuesday, May 28, so because of that, I've decided to leave the CoMC Homework #1 RP open until then, as well! So if you haven't finished up or still want to submit, you have until Tuesday, May 28 at 11:59 PM EST to submit links to me. I'm not sure of the exact time Hogsmeade will close, so I wouldn't leave the RPing until the last minute.

So here's the assignment once again if you're interested!
