As she talked, a few boxes began levitating off the ground and making their way toward the students and around the room.
"Same with the Locomotor spells, like the Locomotor spoon spell we covered last school year. As the boxes make their way around the room, grab a few items---some light, some medium, and some heavy. We're going to work on levitation and movement," she said.
"Most of you have already mentioned the incantation and wand movement for the Hover Charm," she said. She paused and pulled a jewelry box out of a nearby box. She laid it on the desk, pointed her wand toward it, and with a swish and flick said,
"Wingardium Leviosa!" The box made its way up, up, and...it froze.
"Fixate!" she said.
"Now those of you from last year will remember the way we got the spoon to move last year..."
She pointed her wand toward the jewelry box and said,
"Locomotor jewelry box!" With her wand, she guided the box exactly where she wanted it to go. It slightly grazed Duncan Fletcher's head, zoomed by Carr Jones' head, and finally came to a stop on Lori Bristol's desk.
"This is the spell I want for you to practice on several different objects--remember, one light, one medium, and one heavy. You'll need to have this movement down pat for the activity at the end of class." OOC: Thanks, everyone, for being so patient while I was away and at school! I appreciate all the replies, and remember--you're getting participation points, even if Lexi doesn't specifically tell your character. Also, feel free to make up the items your charrie takes from the box! Normal items...she has no elephants hiding away in there. 
Alice jotted down the comments Professor Carlton made on the different kind of movement spells and what they all meant. She had a feeling she was going to have a hard time remembering when to use what spell, but that's what practicing was for, right?
Spotting a jewelry box floating by her Alice called out,
"Locomotor Jewelry Box!" and was pleased to see she was able to direct it right to her.
"Fixate" Alice said once the box was next to her at a good height so she could pick her items out of it.
Alice thought she would start with the heaviest object first, since she figured it would be the easiest to control.
"Wingardium Leviosa," Alice said, swishing-and-flicking until a rather heavy and antique looking spell book came out of it. She guided it carefully in a little circle around her, being careful to avoid the stuffed bunny was zooming around, before leading it back and putting it on the table.
Now to try a medium weight object...perhaps the alarm clock? Alice repeated what she had done with the book, but this time ended up sending the alarm clock smashing into the ceiling of the classroom.
"Woops. A bit too much," Alice said, attempting to lower the clock back down. She hoped she didn't cause it too much damage.
