"Very good," Thereos commented as he watched the students work. "Very good. Before you start placing vital information on your charts, I would like for you to take a few minutes to fill out this worksheet."

His hooves clattered loudly on the flagstones as he moved towards his unused desk. He gathered the stack of papers and began handing them out. "It's obvious that you must write your full name where it says 'Name.' I do hope that all of you know your own names."

He glanced at the paper. "Then you must write down your date of birth and the time you were born, as well as the exact geographic location of your birth. If you do not know these, then you will need to owl your parents and ask for the details which should be found on your birth certificates."

Thereos scratched his bearded chin. "For the geographic location, you need the coordinates in latitude and longitude, hence an atlas will be needed. But for now, please fill in what you know."
