She quickly continued, "There are always famous people from our history both Muggle and Wizarding that can be considered real life superheroes because of the amazing feats that they accomplished during their times...these individuals were influential not only during their times but in the future of the world..." she said as she walked to the next poster hanging from the ceiling. "For instance, in the Muggle World, a real life superhero could be Isaac Newton. He was a nEnglish physicist, mathematician, astronomer, natural philosopher, alchemist, and theologian. His law of universal gravitation and three laws of motion laid the groundwork for classical mechanics." she said as she wrote his name on the poster. "Or those men and women that fight for our various countries in the armed services and such could be considered real life superheroes..." she wrote this on the poster. "An example in the Wizarding World could be Albus Dumbledore..." she finished by writing his name on the poster.
"If everyone will grab a marker..." she said motioning to a little basket below the remaining two posters on the walls, "Please come up and give us an example of a real life Muggle Superhero and a Real Life Wizard Superhero and what they did they makes you feel like they are a hero and then add their names to the appropriate poster..." she said as she wrote Muggle in the middle of one poster and Wizard in the middle of another.
Marker in hand, Sierra was still standing at a blank poster and waiting to write when the professor starting moving on with the lesson. Blinking in surprise, Sierra turned toward the poster and began to write.
Muggle Superhero :: Paula Abdul (Muggle Recording Artist and Television Personality). Paula is a hero, because she goes above and beyond to encourage others to live life to the fullest, love themselves, and follow their dreams. She's gone on television to share her encouraging words, and she's even created a jewelry line full of inspirational messages. Because of Paula, many people have been encouraged to do their very best.
Real Life Wizard Superhero :: Ian Amoroso (Senior Undersecretary to the Minister of Magic). Okay, so Mr. Amoroso can be a bit of a clown, but I think it's this very trait that makes him somewhat of a superhero. Mr. Ian has the ability to walk into a room and turn everyone in it into a friend. He tries to make the most out of each situation and never hesitates to have a good time. I think this makes him a superhero, because he can really brighten anybody's day.
Sierra finished writing her responses then headed back to her desk.

She walked back up to the front of the classroom and flipped the board over and then turned back to the class, "Since this is the last lesson of the year, we will conclude with our final for the term. It is more of a homework assignment but you will do it in class..." she said as she started writing in her pretty handwriting on the board.
"You will have two options to choose from and I'm excited to see what you come up with...feel free to use any of the books in the room or even the posters from the different lessons to help you out.." with the mention of the posters, a variety of superhero and villain posters unrolled from the ceiling.
She looked back at the students with a smile, "You may begin at any time. Please feel free to have fun with this and be as creative as you can be! I want to see what you have learned or believe!"
OOC: This is going to count as the final assignment. Please remember to post your assignment within this thread. I will leave the thread open until Saturday, December 1 at 11:59 pm CST. Once you have posted your assignment, please feel free to rp leaving. Also, feel free to catch up to earn points for the lesson....just make sure to put catching up in your title that way I know that's what the post is for...Thanks everyone!
She sat down just in time to here the instructions being given. She copied down both options and then read and re-read them to decide which one she wanted to do. Option two, she decided, in the end. She thought she had more to say there. On that note, she pulled out a fresh piece of parchment and dipped her quill in ink.
