"That's rather sophisticated for a temporary shelter in the woods. But if you're looking to create a structure for say, a play or a prop for a day, I'd say to focus creating a good board and cutting it later."
He would have said more, but his attention was drawn by the shenanigans of the Hufflepuffs in the back. Quote:

Fletcher sniggered at Mia's attempt to get back at him and set to work on turning his leaves to lumber. Oh he'd show her, he would.
"Temran madera!" the boy cast, drawing a long horizontal line in the air over his leaves so that his wand hand passed all the way across and over Mia's face. Fletcher had never heard of personal space bubbles, apparently.
The spell did work, though, as there was now a nice, cleanly-cut 2x4 sitting on his desk. Perfect. Now what else were they supposed to do? Conjure a cover? More lumber? Mehhhhh Fletcher didn't want to build an entire structure here in the classroom... that would just be a waste of effort.
Wrinkling his nose in thought, the Hufflepuff had an idea. He looked around to make sure Professor Kingsley wasn't in the vicinity and then quietly levitated his branch up to hover over the center of Mia's head. He fixated it there, a spell he was quite familiar with these days, and then loudly cast,
"PALUS!!!!!"
The hovering branch above Mia's head started to grow, quickly, into a long, thin and flexible tent pole. Of course it had to poke her in the head several times as it grew until Fletcher flicked his wand away and caught the stick. Ha ha it had worked. Quote:

Screwing up her face in concentration and sticking her tongue between her teeth, Mia drew another horizontal line with her wand. "Temran Madera." She said with as much conviction as she could muster.
At least this time there had been no sparks from her wand and she had managed to perfect the spell.
Well sort of.
There was now a board but it a big long green stem hanging out the end of it. It was better than nothing. She stopped to listen as the Professor went on to explain the next spell and Mia groaned. She hadn't even gotten this one down pat and they were moving onto the next one.
"Oh shut up Duuuuncaaaan."
Hehe...she knew how much he hated his name. Mia would do more than grate on his ears if he didn't stop annoying her. What she was going to do, she had absolutely no idea but she would think of something.
Just as she was trying to practice her spell work again, all of a sudden there was a hand in front of her face and she was almost tempted to bite him but Merlin only knew where his hand had been.
The boy was disgusting.
And again as she went back to practicing, out of the corner of her eye she could see what Fletcher was doing and before she could DO anything there was a pole poking her in the head.
That does it.
Mia threw down her wand and raised her hand in the air. "SIRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!! Duncan stole the pole I just conjured."
Mwhahaha. He'd caught the poking out of the corner of his eye before and this latest was beyond. "ENOUGH!"
Preston made his way over to them. "Opposite sides of the room." He pointed at Fletcher and to one side, and then to Mia and the other. "If you so much as look at each other cross-eyed, I will ask you to leave before the final."
Pausing, he leaned closer to Fletcher. "Unacceptable. Completely unacceptable."
