| Term 17: September - December 2007 Term Seventeen: Let's Fire A Staff Member! (Sept. 2063 - June 2064) |

| | Lesson 1: Introduction to Arithmancy and the Energy of Numbers You enter the Arithmancy classroom to see neat and exactly-positioned rows of wooden desks and chairs, the latter of which have cushions in a myriad of colors and textures to match your comfort and liking. The walls are filled with thick wooden shelves, on which rest a seemingly endless number of Arithmancy texts and the occasional Ancient Runes and Divination reference. When you look to the front of the room, you see a tall, blonde-haired woman leaning against a desk made of dark angelique wood. In contrast to the darkness of the desk, this woman appears bright and vibrant, some of it due to her bright fuschia robes and some of it due to the vitality of her aura. The woman, your professor, is a new face among the Hogwarts staff. She smiles at you as you enter the classroom and gestures for you to take a seat... |

It also has the astrological equivalents Cancer and Pisces, as well as the gemstones lapis lazuli. One point to Hufflepuff!" Quote:

It's astrological equivalents are Capricorn, Leo, and Virgo, and its colors are red and gold. Now what do those colors remind us of?" Macadrian asked the rhetorical question with a wink, then added, "One point to you!" Quote:

Some of the quality are Very bright, inspirational, uplifts, humanity." "And last, but certainly not least in importance, the number eleven known as the Spiritual Messenger. Colors associated with eleven include Glossy white, silver, and platinum, and so it should be no great leap of the imagination why its gem is Mother of pearl. A point to you as well." Professor Shackleton looked around the room at the faces of the students in her class and concluded that now was a good time to wrap up. She finished, "We've covered a lot of material today and have gained a good foundation for our continued study of Arithmancy. You have all done exceptionally well and have made my first lesson as a Hogwarts professor quite enjoyable. I hope I have done the same for you! Here is your homework." With a flick of her wand, Macadrian posted the following on the board: Quote: Arithmancy Lesson 1 Homework Due: November 4th 11:59pm EST Worth 20 points 1. Define Arithmancy. (1 point) 2. Provide a brief history of Pythagoras’ life and teachings as they relate to the study and development of Arithmancy. (3 points) True or False (#3-8). If false, provide the answer that would make the statement true (Each question worth a half-point each, total = 3 points) 3. The number five (5) is represented by the gemstones aquamarine and turquoise. 4. The Master number eleven (11) shares an astrological equivalent with the number three (3). 5. The lilac flower is shared by the numbers one (1) and four (4). 6. The life event of nurturing is represented by the number six (6). 7. Caring, emotional, and sympathetic are characteristics shared by the numbers thirty-three (33) and two (2). 8.The colors violet and purple represent the number seven (7). 9. Give two examples of numbers that appear to be polar opposites and explain why/how they oppose each other. (4 points) 10. Without using previous knowledge of Arithmancy and without doing any calculations, determine which single-digit number: ___a. Best fits who you are and why (2 points) ___b. Worst fits who you are and why (2 points) ___c. You would like to add/achieve for yourself and why (2 points) 11. Which Master number do you think is most valuable to society? Why? (3 points) BONUS (3 points): Perform a meditation on the number you have listed in question 10c. In order to do this, you must send me an owl (OOC: a PM) with the number you have chosen before the due date of this assignment. I will send you further instructions at that time… "You are all dismissed."

Hogwarts RPG Name: Seth Beauvoir Second | Seth had an idea and thought it couldn't hurt to finally participate, so he raised his hand "11, I think, and it represents intelligence, and it is associated with some artistical areas like poetry which involves creativity and inspiration. 11 can also be associated with the spirit because it is directly linked to knowledge" Seth was very nervous and he hoped his answer was correct.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Jean Sebastian | Tori had been so busy taking notes throughout the class that she hadn't had a chance to say anything. She really enjoyed the class, as she had always been good at math and enjoyed working with numbers. Tori hurriedly wrote down the homework and left the classroom.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Kimberly Bessette First Year | Mawookiee ★ Stitch ♥ her 2 owners ★ H-O-C-K-E-Y Taking a note of his homework, he had to admit that it was the first time that this subject was looking a bit hard. Packing his stuff in his bag, he took a glance of what Tags was doing. This seems very strange that he was so silent. Passing behind him as he walks away, he had in mind of starting this as soon as possible

Zoraida sat there and read the homework the first group of questions seemed easy. The bonus having a meditation on a number seemed odd. Even impossible after all how was she supposed to sit and think about a number that would be no fun. Zora said quietly "Umm how can you meditate on a number" As it seemed a foreign concept which until now this class seemed to be making sense.
After she packed up her stuff she walked out of the classroom as it appeared she had some more homework to do. This unlike the charms homework assigned earlier seemed do able with her actually understanding it and it not being bs like her charms homework likely would be.

Claudian stretch his long legs and stood up. He was hungry and tired and cranky, but there was the boy who he'd seen earlier, speaking or whispering to Cassandra. He wondered if the boy would mind joining him for a little lunch.
"Excuse me? Hi. I was wondering if I could speak to you a moment? Would you meet me out in the corridor, if so?" His voice was calm, quite deep, somewhat monotone, and might've even been soothing to certain ears. |
