Harriet was trying to avoid the attention of her mother. Whilst she loved her mom she really didn't want to get distracted from the lesson. This was her fifth year and she really needed to pay attention. Okay. So she was kind of right. She guessed her answer wasn't that herbology based, but she had tried at least. She didn't know everything, otherwise she wouldn't be here. She made some notes though, wanting to be able to come back to them when she was revising later.

But now they got to practice a spell. Yay! Hattie loved learning new spells. She listened carefully to Professor Myers as he spoke, wanting to make sure she understood everything. And now she could try the spell herself. She practiced the wand movement a few times, flicking her wand in one direction and another. That was pretty simple. She liked that. She liked simple. Then she spent the next few moments saying the incantation. "Natura Revelio" She repeated, about 10 times, until it felt natural in her mouth.

Perfect. Could she practice the actual thing now?

Vanessa was pretty impressed with the lesson so far.
She'd alway enjoyed herbology herself, and knew that some questions she'd asked her daughter that Paul's lessons seemed to be pretty interesting. As he spoke to the class, she made some notes on her parchment. She didn't make long winded notes, not wanting to get herself distracted from what was going on, and miss something that was happening.

Oh. And a spell. That was interesting. And good. He was getting them to practice before they actually tried out the spell. Yes. She liked that. Brownie points earnt their Professor Myers.

So far so good.
