He now needed a piece of tape which he got from his robes and labeled his flag with his name. There perfect. Now onto measuring it. He needed to measure it from the shore to here. He got out his ruler and measured it and recorded in his head.

He walked back to shore with his feet freezing and began to scribble into his log.

Tidal Wave Assignment

Day 1 @ 8am: The Flag was like 3 feet off shore from what I could tell and the water measures 2 inches. That seems a bit close but hey what can you do.


He asked Puck what she thought and the others, "Hey guys what do you think of this?" when he showed his log.

Well, it made the Welsh girl a little nervous… How high were they expecting the water to go?? It wasn’t like she wasn’t a good swimmer, she had grown up close to the sea and swimming a lot of the time with her Mam when they could get to the local muggle swimming pool… but, she didn’t really want to go into the Black Lake even if Bartholomew Henry seemed nice.

So, now she was standing, barely taller than said bright orange flag… measuring stick… thing… and she had no idea where to start. She had to … what?

….

SIGH.

Okay. She would give herself ten more minutes and if she couldn’t figure it out, she would go and ask Professor Airey to retell her what she had to do... Yes, that was a plan. Looking down at her notes, her frowned. Yeah, she didn’t understand this even though she had read it over ten times now.

Hopeless.

Might as well go ask Airey… although… there was Puck. Could she ask her? Would she mind? She could always tell her to go away… right? Right.

Licking her lips nervously, and picking up all of her things she dragged them over to the group of older students who were standing with her Prefect.

”Um… Excuse me..? Puck?” She said softly, looking waaaaaay wayyyyyy UP at Puck. Holy Griffins, would she ever get that tall? ”I’m a little confused with the Astronomy Homework… Would you be able to explain it to me again?” Nerrrrvouuuss.


Puck grinned over to Kace when he exclaimed that he was ready and promptly began wading into the water…oh wait, there was another voice. Puck turned her head and glanced around and then finally looked down at little Marsha. She was so tiny, gosh…like a little munchkin.

“Hey Marsha” she grinned down to her and slowly lowered herself so that she wouldn’t strain her neck or well…Marsha’s either. “Oh we have to wade into the water a bit and check the water levels at different times…so were going now in the morning and then tonight we’ll come back and check and see what the difference is.

“its low tide right now so it should be pretty easy to get out there” she shrugged and grinned over to Marsha. “I can show you if you want?” She offered and picked up one of the flags. “So we have to use these flags and put our names on them,” Puck explained as she wrote her own name on the orange flag. “and now I’m going to go out there, plant the flag and measure how deep the water is but sort of close to the shore” she grinned and picked up the meter-stick as well.

Taking off her shows and socks she walked into the cool water and only stopped when she was about 7/10 of meters away from the shore. “Marsha I’m about two and a half feet or 7/10ths of a meter from the shore…so I think maybe going about a foot off shore would be good? You know just incase the water levels change drastically” she nodded because well…Marsha was like two feet shorter than her and everything. “Or you know, I could if you wanted carry you out there and get the tidal changes that are deeper in the water, bubble head charms and all…” she grinned. And of course extending the stick length so that the flag would be seen from the top of the water.

Okay…she was dong this now. Puck took her meter stick and measured the depth where her flag was sitting. “Okay, so I’ve got about 3.81 centimeters,” she shrugged, and taking the meterstick back with her she returned to the shore and began to write down the notes.

SPOILER!!: Astro HW notes

Morning Findings:
3.81 centimeters, 7/10ths of a meter from the shoreline
