Toothless - Napoleon of Crime - Gryffinclaw - Owl Emissary - Pirate Auror - DoctorDonna Professor Hadley confirmed what he knew though adding where to get the numbers from to assign to the letters. Well he knew that...he just hadn't mentioned the obvious. At least obvious to him as one of those older student who had been dealing with the class for a year or more already.
When they moved into the actual calculations, Gideon had thought they might be working on their own surnames but instead they were instructed to work on a famous person from Gryffindor House. Thinking on the idea, he wondered if his Great Grand Aunt would be acceptable to use. Not that she wasn't famous but that she was indeed family. He finally figured he might as well try it out and of Hadley didn't approve he could do another. So picking up his quill once more, the fifth year went to work, careful to spell the last name correctly. Quote:
Family Name Number
McGonagall
4+3+7 +6+5+1+7+1+3+3 =40
4+0=4
Four...that was the number he got with his math. So Gideon looked to the textbook for the reading associated with the number four under the family name number chapter. Finding it, he read it through, thinking on how it fit. Quote:
FOUR (4): You inherit a belief that hard work is the right way to work, a sense of cautiousness, thoroughness, and self-discipline.
