Tia might or might not have been focused on the fact that two spheres were rotating at the same rate. Was that magic or was there some sort of gravitational pull on the two spheres? So much for her attention on the lesson .. but really, this was just as fascinating! And besides, why else would Flamsteed have them in the classroom if not to carefully watch? They might do something INTERESTING.

Oh wait, what. Moving on to TIDES? But weren't they just talking about moons? Oh it was all connected. The moon regulated tides and climate. But moving on it was time to put on their galoshes, something which she totally forgot in her haste after lunch. Not to worry though; glancing down at her mary-janes, Tia swiftly cast an impervious charm on them. No galoshes, problem solved.

Now onto the question of interest; what did she know about tides? Well she knew about its connection the famous physicist - noone mentioned him yet. Raising her hand, "well Professor, I know that Sir Isaac Newton was the first to explain tides as the result of gravitational pulls to astronomical masses, with use of his theory of universal gravitation."

There. Something different to contribute but all connected, yes?
