"Yes, lumos is a very hand charm to know in case you're ever trapped in the dark. 2 points for you!"

Callie was shocked the Hufflepuff boy was actually paying attention. "Wow, impressive, you do know a little about charms. Aquamenti is indeed a rather basic charm that allows you to shoot water from your wand. 2 points to you.

"It's ok Anna, and yes Accio summons something but it's been said already." Callie smiled, wondering if everything was ok with Anna, it wasn't like her not to pay attention.

"I'm not sure this is completely basic but its useful when someone is hurt." she said. "Ferula it creates bandages."
"Ferula! A great spell. Again another one that's a bit advanced, but a point to you for sharing your ideas."

"The cheering charm!! I love this charm! Yes, 2 points to you! What a great charm to cheer people up. We could have used it last term huh?" Callie winked.

"Ahhh, the silencing charm. I'm not sure I want everyone to know that one, or you'll be casting it on one another at every turn," Callie teased, but it's another great charm. One point to you!"

I'm really impressed with all your answers! One point to everyone else who shared their answers! I'm glad see so many of you guys have been reviewing your textbooks! That should prove very useful to todays lesson.
"Speaking of today's lesson," Callie smirked "Today we'll be learning the levitation charm. Now some of you have already told us that levitation is one of our basic spells that lifts an object into the air, and they would be correct, of course. But who can tell me why this charm might be very useful to us?"
