"I'm sure you have all noticed the targets and the notes in the orb." Ethan began, gesturing to the display orb. "This is still mostly a theory class, but demonstrations will be needed and you will be given the opportunity to do so if you wish. We will begin by discussing Spell knowledge. Obviously this is not simply a matter of knowing an incantation and a wand movement, it is also mastering the intent and practicing the spell until it becomes second nature. So I have questions to pose to you all, there are no wrong answers, I am simply interested in your opinions and hoping that you will each think about your answers."

He looked around the class, some seated on the dais alongside him, some on the bleachers, a few standing around and a few on the floor.

"Do you think it is more important to know a few spells well or have a larger range of spells that you are less skilled in? What do you find to be the easiest way to learn a spell? Do you think simply learning the spells taught to you for your age group is enough? What ways might you learn extra magic? Your thoughts, students, anything you wish to share on the topic of Spell Knowledge and increasing your skills."
"Mkay," Jake replied, and he let the subject drop.

Stupid wand.

At the question, Jake remained quiet for a little while, and then spoke up.

"Knuhh-knowing only a ffffew ssspells and buhh-being ggood at them would be bbbetter thuhhh-than having an av-av-average knowledge of alllot..." he spoke, but he didn't really go into why. "Erm... in mmmy opinion."
