| | Lesson 1: A look into the past As you enter the classroom, you first note how at the right and left you can find empty long tables. It seems that they have been used frequently, and you are left wondering how they have been able to withstand so much use.
The herbology tables are made out of wood and are spread out enough to give everyone enough room to take notes and practice with the plants.
However, currently, this classroom is locked. Professor Virohsa will surely open the classroom tomorrow, once the class starts. Once the classroom is opened, you are free to walk inside, find your spot, and await your first herbology lesson.
OOC- Students: Please wait for Professor Virohsa to open the door. Thanks |

| Rachel took notes,while looking through her textbook. She was unsure of the correct answer, but kept looking anyway. She looked around the class and saw Angel. She smiled then turned to her notes.She didn't want to disturb the class..or get Professor Virohsa angry. She kept to her notes and listened to everyone else's answers intently. |

Lo felt useless. Was it 100 BC? she thought. It sounded right, but it didn't seem specific enough.

| Professor Virohsa shook her head. "Very well.. it seems like you may not get it. Two of you were very close when you said 2200 B.C.", she said with a hint of exasperation. "But since it doesn't seem like any of you know the answer, I will give it to you. The origin of Chinese Herbology can be traced to around 2700 BC.", she added.
"Now the next question is who was known as the Divine Farmer?", she asked the class. |

Rachel was taking notes, and frantically trying to find an answer, she hated not being in the 'know'.

Ozzy looked up to the Professor and raised his hand. "Would you be refering to Shen Nong, Professor?" He asked uncertainly.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Jillian McGuffin Sixth Year | Gryffindor Goddess g_g raised her hand."Shen Nong is a legendary emperor who it is claimed taught the Chinese people how to cultivate farmland. He is credited with teaching them how to sow grains, to observe the land to learn where was fertile farm land, inventing the plough and cart, taming the ox and yoking the horse. Sometimes he is drawn with the head of an ox." g_g said. |

Lo was so confused. She couldn't find anything...was she really a Ravenclaw? Maybe it was just her nerves. She took a few deep breaths and look through the pages of the book.

Serilda twirled her quill between her fingers, thinking about the lesson but not all that hard.

| Professor Virohsa nodded, "Yes Ozzy". She then turned to g_g and nodded. "Very good! 5 pts for Gryffindor! Anyone else have any other interesting facts?", she asked the class.
OOC- I read all of your posts (even if I dont address them specifically). I also notice when you edit.. so that's why I'm making this post. I'm not ignoring everyone, its just hard to quote every single post so I make a general post unless you give the correct answer *pets* |
