And particularly in this lesson. Provided everything went smoothly they would each play a part in recolonising this maginificant species.

Striding over to the blackboard Seren whipped out her wand and gave it a tap. Instructions instantly materialised on its surface.
Seren then returned to the front and centre of the class.
"Right, instructions are on the board. I suggest you read them thoroughly. You will find that the tanks, clay, sea water and mooncalf dung are at the back of the... class..." Seren gestured to a pile of tanks that had materialised at the back of the ship with a simple flick of her wand. "When you come up to collect your cutting, you may either use one of the silver knives I have here at the front or you may use the severing charm 'diffindo', however if you are not profficient at using this charm then I suggest using the knife... only because of the fragility of this specimen." Seren surveyed the students.

"Remember to take great care when working with the Coral, it is endangered. With any luck you will all have played an important role in securing it a longer future."
"Instructions for making the mooncalf solution will be found on your desks."With another flourish of her wand, small sheets of paper materialised onto the students' desks.



Seren began to move around between the desks in case any students required assistance. She would keep a close eye on them when they got their cuttings...
"Don't forget, safety first, gloves need to be worn."

OOC: This is the practical. For full participation marks you will need to RP this activity in 5 posts. Each post must be titled with the appropriate instruction. Have fun with this. The thread will be open for another 24 hours and will be reassessed at the end of that period- see how we go. All the usual rules apply. Happy RPing!
Nessie got really excited to do the practical. She had always loved helping endangered animals and plants back at home and she was happy she could do it here too. She put on her gloves, then walked up to the Coral. She took a silver knife and cut off very carefully exactly 20 cm long.She got back to her desk to do the rest.
