"Are you alright over there?" Issy called.



Clapping her hands to get their attention, she waited a second to make sure all eyes were on her. Flicking her wand at the board the eraser removed the words already on it and replaced it with the spell they were learning.

"Now, as a few of you seem to be having trouble with the pronunciation of the incantation, I've placed it on the board for you. You need to remember to add emphasis on the UA and the HAB sections of the words." Perching herself back on the edge of her desk, Issy looked around at the various frames and bits of paper that were lying about.

"We'll just take a quick break from practice to look at the spell. Can anyone tell me what language they think it derives from and what it means?" With new kids around it was always worth asking these things, to make sure they understood the origin of spells. In Isabelle's opinion anyway.




OOC: We'll be moving on to a different sort of practice later, using the photo's. For now you can carry on a bit more if you haven't done much practice, but please try to answer the question as well.


"I'm fine!" She breathed. Getting her wand and returning to her desk with a red face. She continued practising. This time, she was going to think really hard! "Stat-UA HAB-itum!" She said strongly, picturing her photo frame clearly in her head. Her piece of paper darkened and hardened, taking on a wooden sort of colour then the Professor spoke.

The badger lost her concentration and her piece of paper lay on the desk; a square piece of wood. Not a photo frame like she was trying for.

She honestly had no idea how to answer the question. She bit her lip and thought. Nope, no idea. Wait, yes! She had an idea! She raised her hand, "Is it Italian? Statua mean statue, right?"

Glenn smiled sheepishly, returning to her seat and grinning at Sophie. She still hadn't managed to achieve a photo frame yet. But she would do it! She could do this!
