He offered Ash a smile and would have added more back but it was lesson time. Though Simon, in fact, DID have an iPod. It was his great granddad’s. Didn’t really work too well. It made a nice book end on his bookshelf.

The older Mordaunt has guessed the purpose of his lesson. Had the young man SEEN his lesson notes? Had Ethan broken into his OFFICE?!

Simon wore an amused grin on his face when Scarlett Mordaunt spoke up. She had an interesting answer surely… “It may seem boring but I hope to unpack it to make it seem less boring, Miss Mordaunt,” he offered. She was young- it was understandable to think of courtrooms as boring.

The next several answers flowed very nicely together. He liked that the students were building off of each other’s facts much like the tree branches and vines had started to grow, adding little leaves. Miss Blaze and Mr Nam’s facts went hand in hand. Both brought a smile to his lips. “Yes, it was created to govern witches and wizards. Great fact, Miss Blaze.” A smile appeared on his lips as Evan Nam flawlessly recited several facts together. “Excellent, Mr Nam!” Simon could not have said it better himself. He turned his gaze to Valentina who ended her comment with a right? He nodded. “Yes, they were involved in that too,” he affirmed offering her a small smile.

Violet, Phoebe, Ash, Daniel, and Ivy all had strong examples of the laws. “Terrific examples. Thank you!” he said as he added that to his list. He was a very happy camper- he could tell that most of the class had done their pre-reading which would make the activity far more enjoyable.

He tapped the chalkboard with his wand and the points they brought up were there.

SPOILER!!: chalkboard

Remy’s question gave him pause. Didnt the Wizard’s Council do similar things to the Ministry today? “They did,” he said with a nod before continuing on. “The Wizard’s Council is the first recorded instance of Wizarding government in our history. They did everything from making laws, enforcing laws, and judging events and activities.”

“Several historical accounts would suggest that the Wizard’s Council acted similarly to our Ministry’s Wizengamot which Mr. Mordaunt alluded too. That’s the next question. What’s the function of the Wizengamot? What does it do? Who were historical members? And who are the current members?”

OOC: Next post is up. Sorry for the delay- was traveling today. Great answers- Simon is chuffed! moving onto the second question about the Wizengamot. Several of the charries have guessed it! We will be role playing a trial in our main activity.
