"Partly right," Milly giggled, "but not only inanimate objects into animate ones!" Which would bring her onto her next question!

Did this little fella have a stutter? Mildred smiled sweetly at the boy, and nodded, "yes! Vanishing and conjuring is part of Transfiguration too. Well done, dear."

"Right you are!" Mildred clapped her hands together.

They were all so smart! "Correct, but there are Charms which have similiar outcomes."

"Turning one form of matter into another," Mildred nodded with a sweet smile, "That's a good definition."

"Oooooh, I like that answer!" Mildred literally SHRIEKED with excitement. And bounced on the balls of her feet too. Which resulted in a rather dangerous wobble. "It DOES reward creative thinking! The possibilities are endless!"

Still beaming, Mildred nodded at the next to answers.. glad to have such a smart bunch to teach.

... and then the door she'd closed opened again. Mildred blinked slightly as a young girl walked in and took herself a seat. She was late! That just wouldn't do. If she had late-comers picking and choosing when to arrive she'd never be able to concentrate on her lesson!

"Please make sure you arrive on time, dear," Milly said with a small sigh, flicking her wand and closing the door yet again, "Two points from Ravenclaw for your tardiness."

"NOW, there are different types of Transfiguration. We already had one example.. inanimate to animate. Do you know the others?" She bet they did!
