The door is ajar, just waiting for you to open it and enter the classroom. When you do you notice that nothing is out of the ordinary. All the desks are lined up in the usual manner, each with a single piece of large paper resting on top, Professor Magnus' desk is still at the far end of the room, and the blackboard is to the side.

There is a message on the blackboard, however.

Professor Magnus herself is sat on the edge of her desk waiting to greet you.

OOC: I'm opening a little earlier to allow people time to enter. The actual lesson won't start for another couple of hours or so. Please have your character enter, but DON'T chat excessively or points will be taken. ;P

Class has started - Please do not announce your late arrival.

HELPFUL LINKS:
[*] First question
[*] Practice instructions - new spell and wand movement
[*] Second question
[*] Come up to the front, kiddies. Professor Magnus wants you to see something....
[*] Second demonstration
[*] Go forth and practice

Tennesse entered the room and greeted Professor Magnus along with her bright smile. "Good day, Professor," she said. As she went to choose her seat she glanced at the board and read what was written on it. Hokay! She took a seat and stared at the room. She wondered what will they be doing today in transfiguration.

Orla · 01-09-2012, 04:50 PM

LuLu entered the transfigureation classroom and smiled at the Proffeser ''Hello, Proffeser Magnus,'' she'd have a chit-chat and everything but she didn't praticularly feel like it today she felt... tired it was quite hard to sleep at night, knowing that there IS a rat in your room it wasn't a very pleasant feeling from the thought of it running or what ever rats do on your face or somthing the thought was vital! Really anyways hopfully transfigration would take her mind off that

LuLu wandered over to any empty seat really and sat down placing all her notes and quills and books at the side of the table she stared at the piece of parchment that just happened to be on her table and every other table by the looks of it she sighed and looked at the board! Practical work ehh.. Right.....

MeredithRodneyMckay · 01-09-2012, 04:54 PM

Isabelle nodded and greeted everyone as they entered with a cheery "Hello!" Quite a few of them seemed young and in their first year. But equally there were a few she recognised.

She then took a seat in the middle of the room, and her eyes scanned the room.

"Good day, Professor Magnus!" The Slytherin greeted with a bright smile as she made her way further into the room, heading over to a vacant seat "I hope you had a good summer."

Then she sat down and glanced up at the board before looking back down on the sheet of paper on her table. What could they be possibly be doing with paper?

"I had a lovely summer, thank you. I hope you both did as well." Isabelle smiled at the two girls as they sat down.

She was still a bit sleepy from all the star gazing she had done the other night. But it was almost time for Transfiguration Class--and since she had fallen in love with that class because of last term's turn your walking stick into a snake and having a real snake in a class--Beezus hurriedly headed over to the Transfiguration Classroom.

And of course, first to appear in sight was inside was the Professor for Transfiguration herself. "Good day Professor Magnus!" Beezus greeted brightly as her eyes roamed the classroom but mostly focused on the Professor's desk. There was no sign of Jasper the snake. "Jasper's not here, Professor?" the young eaglet asked as she walked over to the second desk on the far left side that was nearest to the blackboard.

She also saw the message on board. And sure enough, there was a piece of paper on where she chose to sit.

Laughing, Issy shook her head. "No, not today. He's at home I'm afraid."

He entered the classroom with a grin in his face. "Good day, Professor. I'm Edvard Messer, first year Hufflepuff." he said intoducing himself before he took a seat in the middle of the room.

"Very nice to meet you, Mister Messer," Isabelle grinned as he introduced himself and went off to his seat.

He said as he placed the sack of cookies on her desk as he bowed to her slightly. Then he found a desk next to Minerva and gave her a meek smile. and put his bag on the back of his chair. As he did he saw Alyssa and gave her a smile and a wave. Hopefully she wouldn't think less of him for what had happened.

Cookies? Well that was an unexpected surprise. Isabelle hadn't been aware that anyone other than Kurumi baked. "Uhh, thank you Justin. I do." And there seemed to be a few of them, so hopefully the other professors did as well, because she'd be sharing them in the staff room later.

Oh. Well..that was too bad. She kinda expected that the snake would be there. It would add excitement for the lesson, she was sure of that. "I see..Well, can you tell him I said hello Professor?" she replied with a chuckle. Seriously?

nogoodforyou · 01-09-2012, 05:01 PM

Running on her way to the Transfiguration classroom, Nora froze when she noticed that professor Magnus was already there. Was she... late? She's never been late. Never never. But... no, she didn't seem to be teaching already, did she?

"Hello, professor," she said nervously and occupied the nearest empty desk, while all she could think about was to pray that she was not late. She wouldn't want to lose more points for Slytherin, now that they were so cool, already in the negatives. Huh.

pundantic · 01-09-2012, 05:11 PM

Selina walked inside the Transfiguration classroom with her hands in her robe pocket. It was nice to not be rushing to class. She always liked this class because Professor Mangus never scheduled class for upsurd hours in the morning. Out of all of her Professor this class always seemed to calm Selina's pulse; she was a fan of transfiguration.

As she stepped inside the door she smiled at her Professor and said, "Hello Professor Mangus. How was your summer holiday?"

SarcasticStrawberry · 01-09-2012, 05:19 PM

Asher practical ran all the all the way to the transfiguration classroom. It was another one of those lessons that he couldn't wait for. He walked into the classroom, in front of the room. "Good Morning, Professor!" He said Happily. Then he went over to the middle of the room and found a seat. He waited for class to start.

Kimalia · 01-09-2012, 05:19 PM

Kimalia was a little hesitant about entering, but as soon as she walked in she put her game face on. She will conquer Transfiguration this year! Yep, yep, smiling brightly as she passed by, "Good day, Professor." before taking her seat.

AshCat14 · 01-09-2012, 05:21 PM

Eliza entered the classroom. She was still not used to getting up early and as a result was hungry from skipping breakfast, in favour of being on time. She saw other students greet the Professor and decided not to do so herself, after all she didn't even know her name! She smiled and tilted her head in the Professors direction, before taking her seat.

I'm not late, am I?!?! Nonono- I can't be late! I've never been late!, the third year thought while rushing along the corridor, hoping she would get in time in class. Argh! It is already quite late!, she told herself as she approached the classroom. After waiting a moment to catch her breath, Gwen opened the door.

'Good day Professor', the Ravenclaw said as she walked in the classroom. Looking around, Gwen hoped to see some familiar faces. Well, there was Nora, the girl I met at the mirror..., she thought and walked towards her desk. 'Mind if I sit here?', Gwendolyn smirked.

ShadowButterfly · 01-09-2012, 06:04 PM

Butterfly came and sat in the back of the room away from the other,"Morning professor." She sid hoping she wasn't late

Weasley174 · 01-09-2012, 06:17 PM

Laura walked into the classroom and stood there shocked, what was going on here everything seemed so normal this was like one of her classes at Primary School, Hogwarts was suppost to be fun, trust a Professor to make the lesson boring, well she would have to do her best anyway. "Good day Professor." Laura smiled, well there was one good thing about a normal lesson, she would know what to do, she could do normal well.

Noticing that more students were arriving made Nora feel much better, figuring out that she wasn't late after all. Good. She has never been late, and she wanted to keep it that way.

As she read the instruction telling them not to use the piece of paper that was on the desk, she grabbed her bag and took out other pieces of paper and her pink flamingo feather quill she bought last summer. It was still her favourite. Hehe.

Buuut someone caught her attention while she was still rummaging in her bag. Looking up, she recognized Gwen, the one she had met not a long time ago. "Not at all," she smiled, holding one hand towards the empty seat next to her.

CJP · 01-09-2012, 06:28 PM

"Goodmorning professer!" Maddy grinned as she walked through the door. She took a seat, taking out her want after reading the board."So were going to be transforming this", she said refurring to the papper.

"Okay, yes, I'll be sure to do that." Although Isabelle doubted that Jasper would take much notice. He was always too caught up with slithering around on the grass in the back garden.

As she stepped inside the door she smiled at her Professor and said, "Hello Professor Mangus. How was your summer holiday?"

"It was very nice, thank you for asking, Selina," Isabelle smiled at the girl and got up from her position perched on her desk.

Stepping forward a couple of places, she waved her wand lazily in the direction of the board, making the chalk shoot in the air and write her name. "Good morning everyone! For those of you that don't know me, my name is Professor Magnus, and welcome to the first Transfiguration lesson of the term."

Placing her wand back in her pocket, her hands followed and she stood, relaxed, and smiling at the assembled group. "Now, I hope you have all brought a photo with you, as I requested in the lesson notice. If you want to get them out of your bags and place them ready on your desk for when we practice a little later." She eyed them all and gave them some time to do as she asked.

"Okay then. As we have quite a few new students with us this lesson, I'd like to start by asking you all to tell me the definition of Transfiguration, as you understand it, and the most important things you need to remember when performing this branch of magic."

OOC: You can all answer this one, then I'll move on later to the practical part.

LilFox06 · 01-09-2012, 06:38 PM

It was Anya's FIRST transfiguration lesson. She was beyond excited. Changing things. With a wand! How cool was that?

Alright. Picture. She dug into her bag and placed her picture on her desk.

She raised her hand. "Transfiguration is changing something in to something else." she answered. Yep. She paid attention when that was asked in the other class.

Weasley174 · 01-09-2012, 06:41 PM

Laura looked at the Professor and took the photo the Professor had ask for out of her bag and place it on the table, she then looked scared as the Professor asked her what she thought transfiguration was. "Tran...fig...ur...at...ion." Laura said the word slowly so she didn't make any mistake. "I think it means you transport something from somewhere to somewhere else, like the train brought us here."

Granger1814 · 01-09-2012, 06:42 PM

Kourtney removed the photo from her bag and set it in the middle of her desk, tuning in quickly to the professor's next words. The definition of Transfiguration....Her hand rose quickly. "Professor, Transfiguration is basically the changing the appearance of an object, person or animal. It can also deal with spells that vanish or conjures things."

Starbreeze · 01-09-2012, 06:45 PM

When prompted, Eino took the picture he had brought, one of him standing next to a dead dragon, and placed it on top of the desk. He left it there while he listened to Professor Magnus' brief introduction and her first question. Naturally, he raised his hand when she was done speaking. "Transfiguration is the branch of magic that changes the target's nature, which differs from Charms, which only modifies the targeted object's behavior." To put it simple, transfiguration caused one thing to become a whole other different thing.

KayKay · 01-09-2012, 06:46 PM

Gwen raised her hand, tugging nervously on her robes.
"Transfiguration is magic that changes an object, animal or person fundamentally," she said, remembering this from her Charms notes.

SarcasticStrawberry · 01-09-2012, 06:50 PM

Yay!

His first transfiguration lesson had officially started. Right, he had nearly forgotten to get the picture of himself in his dorm. And now he had nearly forgotten to get in out of his bag.

He placed the picture on his desk. Now to the question that Professor Magus had asked. "It's taking an item and changing it into something different." Or that's the best he could understand it or explain it.

RachieRu · 01-09-2012, 06:55 PM

With a smile, Indy took her picture out of her bag, placing it onto the desk infront of her. She'd brought a picture of herself and Kourt, her best friend. She loved this photo. It made her happy. But now she needed to concentrate on the lesson. What was transfiguration? Indy smiled, before she raised her hand. "Transfiguartion is a branch of magic which focuses on the witch or wizard altering the appearance or form of an object."

MudInMyBlood · 01-09-2012, 07:03 PM

Hannah took out her photo and placed it on the desk as she was asked. She was really excited for this lesson and thought about what transfiguration meant. "Professor I think Transfiguration is when you change the appearance of an object. Also I think it will be really important to focus and speak clearly while reciting an incantation as well as controlled wand movement." She was sure that was crucial. Transfiguration could go really wrong with just a simple mistake...she was sure of that much.

MrsHGranger · 01-09-2012, 07:10 PM

Helga taking fast notes and running out ink fast. Helga raised her hand, " Professor, Transfiguration is a branch of magic that focuses on the alteration of the form or appearance of an object, via the alteration of the object's molecular structure. Transfiguration can be done to most (if not all) objects and as with most forms of magic it includes - but hardly limited to - Transfiguration spells, which comprise the one of the seven known spell types." Helga was fairly satisfied and waited for Professor Magnus' verdict.

JennMarie · 01-09-2012, 07:13 PM

Ariana sat at her desk and took out her photo.. it was of Joseph last year on her birthday, she became bored and began to simply fold her piece of parchment.. origami? maybe.. who know's she was just hoping the professor didnt flip out.
