Kerry sat down quickly and took out her parchment and colored quills.
"Oooh, draw the solar sytem in scale. I'm not the best at drawing, but I will give it a shot," Kerry thought to herself as she thought over the assignment in her head before beginning to draw it out.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Sini Sarah Snider Second Year | This sounded like it would be a lot of fun to do. Sini took out her quill and parchment, and began drawing. It would take a while to do this to scale and in a specific order, but she would do it none-the-less.

Megan froze for a minute before letting her mind open. Drawing was not one of her best qualities. She sighed. Oh well, it had to be done. She picked up her quill and began.

Cassandra sat down and began her drawing. She wasn't really good artistically, but her way of drawing things to scale was very good. She kept hoping the professor would freeze the tower again and after the Exam she could go penguin racing. Rave had graduated and wasn't there. She had been the one to spearhead the penguin races...
She then looked at her parment and continued on her drawing. She drew the Sun first in yellow and orange, as all planets revolved around it, then she started to draw the others, making venus pink, placing earth third and ending with Pluto. She took a moment to review her work before bringing it to the professor.
After a few final adjustments Cassandra walked up to the Astronomy professor and handed in her homework. Before leaving she said "Professor Belle... is there any chance... in the tower... that maybe we could... penguin race?" She looked down waiting for the professor's answer.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Bueller B. Betsworth Fifth Year | Jor!Jor! Queen Hermidana Jordana looked down at her parchment and began to draw out the solar system. She wasn't artistically inclined, but it didn't matter as long as all of the planets were present and in the proper order. If she did that properly she was sure that she would get a decent mark.
After a few more minutes she had finished almost all of the planets. Coming to the last planet she drew in Pluto, without realizing that it was no longer considered a member of the solar system. Finally noticing the smallest ball on the parchment she bit her lip, but just left it. It was pure habit, and in her mind Pluto would always be present on the system.
Completing her work, Jordana got up and handed it over to Professor Belle. With a smile she went back to her desk picked up her belongings and headed out of the class. |

| Ravenpuff | Cap'n Crunch | Bedtime Queen | O Minion, My Minion Emily thought this was an enormous task. She opened her textbook to a drawing of the solar system. She began with the sun, a big circle right in the middle. Then she quickly drew Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars as much smaller circles. Next, she drew many specks that symbolized an asteroid belt. She dotted with her quill a little too ferociously and put holes in her paper. "Reparo," she whispered. Good. She wouldn't have to start over. Now she had come to the big planets. She lightly sketched Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and, for good measure, Pluto. Satisfied with all but Saturn's rings, she filled them all the way in. After four horrible attempts at the rings, she gave it up as a bad job and decided she was finished. She surveyed her work happily. It wasn't that bad. You could actually tell what it was. That's good enough for me! She walked up to the Professor and handed in her work.

Evy was very excited to draw the Solar System, but she really couldn't see how to make it to scale... She started by drawing a huge orange circle on the left of the page, then placed the first four planets, the rocky ones. Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars. She coloured the four circles and even tried to draw the Americas on the Earth. She then made little dots to create the Asteroids Belt in the space between Mars and Jupiter, and made two bigs circles to represent Jupiter and Saturn. The gas planets were of course much bigger than the one closer to the Sun. Evy even learned that more than a thousand Earths could fit inside Jupiter!
On Jupiter, Evy drew the famous hurricane, and on Saturn she tried to draw something that looked like rings around the surface of the plant. She made two slightly smaller circles, and wrote "Uranus" and "Neptune" above those two. She used a greyish blue to colour Uranus and a soft purple for Neptune. Evy then made a tiny circle to represent Pluto and Charron. She made more tiny dots at the right of Pluto to represent the Oort Cloud, then proceeded to draw the orbits of all the planets. However, she didn't draw Pluto's orbit because it wasn't on the same plan as the other planets and would have been too difficult to draw in two dimensions.
She put down her quill and handed her exam to the teacher before walking out of the classroom.
