MUGGLE STUDIES LESSON 1
The first Muggle Studies lesson will begin on Sunday, May 31, at around 9:00 a.m. PST (that's 12:00 noon EST and 5:00 p.m. GMT). Don't worry if you can't make it, I plan to stagger the lesson out a while and give people plenty of chance to show up and participate.

Homework will be assigned after the lesson concludes.

First History of Magic class begins tomorrow!

Who: all are welcome ~~with the notable exception of one stubborn old man who should know by now that pride comes before a fall~~

What to bring: textbooks, quills and parchment.

Please bring your textbooks and be willing to share. Remember that many Slytherins may be without books, quills and parchment and it would be excellent to see you all help out your fellow students.

ooc: I'm not sure what time this will be, when I say tomorrow, I mean... at some point within the next 24 hours. In any case, I'll make sure it's open long enough for everyone to play. Please familiarise yourselves with the classroom rules before posting in my class.

Your homework is simply this - We have heard some of the muggle music from the 1950s today, learned one of the dances and talked about some of the customs and traditions from that era, even sampled some of the food.

Now it is up to you. Write a short essay on who you think was the most influential musician from the 1950s and why. It doesn't have to be a long essay, but I'd really like to hear your thoughts on this.

This assignment will be due by 12:00 a.m. EST Tuesday June 9 (9:00 p.m. PST Monday June 8, 5:00 a.m. GMT Tuesday June 9).

Heads up!

Lions and Lioness!

Please Proceed to the Astronomy Tower for an Astronomy Class.

Here's the link to Orion's Belt

Astronomy Homework:

Quote:

How would history have changed if the government had given the Orion Project the type of support it gave NASA during the early 60's? If the money spent on NASA and Apollo in the 1960s had been spent on Orion instead, could most of the negative issues, including fallout, have been resolved? It might not have been "Saturn by 1970" but perhaps "Saturn by 1980?" Tell me your opinion and why. 10 points total.

Turn in (PM) homework to me no later than Saturday, June 6th at 10:30 PM CST (GMT-6). Include name, house, and ID. Be sure to follow the rules stated in the Class Rules.[/COLOR]

DADA Lesson 1 Homework

I am going to be setting up a separate thread for this particular homework.

For this homework you will enter a room that is set out like a Saloon from the good old western days. And you are to take on the bad guys by practicing drawing your wands from your holsters and firing the water charm and ONLY the water charm. For those of you who don't know the incantation is 'Aguamenti.' But beware there are also innocent people in there as well. Focus on your surroundings as well.

This is a fairly easy assignment and all it requires is a very good imagination and some creative RPing.

The assignment is due one week from today.

Please PM the link to your post to Professor Lawson (aussiegirl)

Herbology Lesson One

Who: All ya'll.

What: Class, duh.

When: When I say so.

Where: Outside.

Note1: Read the rules before attending, people.

Note2: Be on your toes. :shifty:

Note3: And make sure they're clean toes, children. :evil:

[ooc: lol so class will be starting sometime between noon on Saturday, June 6th and uh, noon on Sunday June 7th EST...we'll see...but it will definitely be open for a few days...a week...however long enough so that everyone gets to participate fo sho.]

History of MaGIC Homework!!!!

Quote:

For Homework:

Choose one invention or discovery from Wizarding History and tell me about it…
(you don’t have to use these questions, this is just to get you thinking)
-who invented/discovered it?
-what Hogwarts subjects does it relate to?
-when was it invented/discovered?
-what does it do?
-who might find it useful?

Minimum 1 paragraph, absolute maximum of 3.
The catch is that you need to write your assignment using one of the Weasleys Wizard Wheezes Quills. It can either work perfectly or not, it’s completely up to you. If necessary, provide a translation of your work and be sure to show which kind of quill you chose (just saying ‘I chose this one’ isn’t enough, be creative.)

Due: 2 weeks from this post.

(That is, 9am GMT, Wednesday 17th of June, give or take ten or so minutes.)

Heads Up!

Herbology Lesson 1 Is Now open!

Herbology homework is up. ^^

Quote:

1. List 3 things you learned in Herbology today.

2. Second, choose one of the following options and execute it with either words or pictures or a combination of the two.

Option One: Find or "invent" a spell you would use to improve these giant water lilies, whether it be to extend the flowers' blooming, make them more durable to humans walking on them, more compatible for water boat races etc. Explain your idea and why you would want to improve the lilies this way.

Option Two: Research a magical plant you would be interested in crossbreeding with a water lily and predict what the outcome would be, the uses of this new magical-mundane hybrid, what sort of environment or care it would need, etc.

You may only turn in one option (but yes, please do part one) and you may be allowed to experiment with your creation if you pick option two.

DUE DATE: June 30th for it all

Edit :: Send it via PM to BanaBatGirl, with the title of the PM reading, "Herbology Homework #_" and don't forget to include your character's name, SS user name, member ID number, and House in the PM. =]
