Among the first to answer was Ms Force from Slytherin and Ms Stone of Ravenclaw. "Yes Venus is a planet and so is Earth dears." He responded before waiting to for them to recite more planets but they never came, oddly enough. Had he worded the question wrongly?

Scratching his head absent mindedly Edvard was glad when Mr Agger, Mr Uronen, Ms Potter and Ms DeCour broke his trail of thoughts. "You are all correct. Pluto is now classified as a dwarf planet after they changed the requirements for being considered a planet back in 2006. It almost lead to a riot in the academic world since the change in classification meant that the teachers had to change the curriculum."

"Another important fact to remember which Miss Slazar brought up is that all the planets orbit around the sun which is the heart of the solar system." Allowing the student’s time to take down notes Edvard went over and opened the cup boards to look at the state of the telescopes. They seemed to be in working order.

A quick glance out the window showed him that it was high time to move on. Clapping his hands together to get the student’s attention he said "Right, can everyone take out their telescopes? It’s a perfect night to look at mercury so set up your telescopes in front of the windows and see if you can pin point mercury."

OCC: The next task is to RP taking out your characters telescope, and trying to find mercury in the sky. If your student didn’t bring a telescope then feel free to RP claiming one from the cupboard. Feel free to be as successful or not as you want with finding the planet. I don’t mind if you partner up either. Have fun with it! I will teach a spell to focus the telescope lens in my next post.
