Maidee was still irritated by the immaturity of the Slytherin class. Taking a few deep breaths, she cleared her mind and opened her lesson door for the older students. The ones that would REALLY be challenged today.
She set the supplies on the tables and took a seat in her chair, going over the lab she had set up for today.

"Pink is fun," Gold grinned, as she watched him trace. Oh wait, he did two readings! Well, that would just speed things up, of which Gold was glad. She gave him a little nod and, when he was done, handed him the graph paper. Her turn to trace, right?
"Ten more degrees," she told him cheerfully. Ten more degrees for the tilt, that is. But he would know that, already.
Gold waited for him to adjust the graph paper, then traced the circle, drew a line from it, measured the angle with the help of the protractor, and took a note of the brightness of the light inside the outline - yay, light meter! She noted down both the readings in their lab notebook.
And ... Good gosh!
"Do you realize we're done tracing?" Gold asked, laughing lightly as she removed the graph paper, and looked up at Torin, once more. She had been getting tired of doing the same thing, over and over again. They could finally move on to something else!
"Phew!"
They were done. They were finally done.
Well, this part at least.
"I don't mind Astronomy, but that was getting rather boring." He smiled at her. He knew that she was rather bored too.
"I don't mind Astronomy, but that was getting rather boring." He smiled at her. He knew that she was rather bored too.
"What next, Miss G?"
Gold half-smiled at his remark. She should have known he was getting bored. Torin wasn't the type to find stuff like this interesting! Not to mention, it had been getting a bit repetitive, there!
What next? The true answer to his question would have been 'lots of confusing calculations' but, of course, Gold did not say that. "We have to count the approximate number of squares inside each light outline," she told him, with a nod. "Here."
She handed him the sheet of instructions.
Quote:
For each sheet of graph paper, count the approximate number of squares inside each light outline. For partial squares, estimate how much of the square is lit up; for example, if it looks like one-fourth of the square is lit up, add 0.25; if it looks like half of the square is lit up, add 0.5; if it looks like three-fourths of the square is lit up, add 0.75.
"Make sense?" she asked, out loud. It sort of did, to her, but she could not say she understood it perfectly.

Maybe he did?
He blinked at her as she handed him the paper that had the instructions on it.
O_________O
What the heck was this supposed to mean?
"Miss G, this is all Greek to me. And I'm Greek." Seriously, what was with Astronomy and all these calculations? It needed to stop, or his head would explode.
"Yup." She worked with him to finish that paper, then moved on to the next one, talking as she taped the graph paper down. "Okay, why don't we switch? You can hold the board this time, and I'll trace and everything."
But... well that side meant measuring. Raiden wasn't a math person. He could measure potion ingredients and all that just fine, and he was always spot on with them, but... this wasn't the same. This was with that protractor thing, which, to him, looked like a pair of scissors gone horribly wrong.
Still...
"I'll... give it a shot." He shrugged. "You're probably better at tracing than I am anyway."
Tapping the button on the flashlight twice, just for funsies, he swapped places with Lina and held the board.
He blinked at her as she handed him the paper that had the instructions on it.

Gold sighed. Could it be any clearer that Torin Kane was starting to forget how sense was spelled?
No, it could not.
"Mr. T," she looked up at him rather patiently, and her tones were low, enough to ensure that no one except him heard her. She did not, after all, want to disturb anyone else. "If you're Greek, and this is Greek to you, then that means you understand it well enough."
"However, I would say -" She took the sheet back from him, and placed it on the table. "- That that look on your face is enough to guarantee that, like me, you do not completely get this."
Picking up quill, she began to draw a table, like the one shown in the sheet of instructions. Then she reached for their very first graph paper, scanned it for the circle labelled 0° and began to count the number of squares inside it. That done, she wrote the total count down in the '0' row of the column titled "Graph Paper 1." There, that was actually a lot simpler than it sounded.
"See?" She showed the paper to Torin. "It's fairly simple - even more so, if you write down the numbers on a rough sheet, so that you don't forget your calculations. Especially if there are partial squares."
Because, yes, those were a bit tricky.
As if to prove her point, she began to count the number of squares - partial and complete, both - on the circle labelled 10° on the first graph paper they had worked on. Then she wrote down the average total in the '10' row of the column, for the said paper.
"Give it a try."
She handed him the graph paper, as well as the rough sheet - the one she had written the rough calculations and stuff in, before transferring the final total in the appropriate cell, on ze lab notebook. "You can check the average total inside the circle for the twenty degree tilt, for a start," she told him, as she placed the quill in her left hand, on the table.
Gold felt MUCH better, now. These steps were making a lot more sense, as she carried them out, and that was a relief.

Yep.
He shook his head at her. "No, it doesn't. 'cause that's an expression." So there. He was right, and she was wrong. Not that it really mattered, he just liked being right.
He watched her work and saw that she was counting the number of squares and writing them down. Sooo... he was pretty sure he could do that too. He knew how to count.
So he started counting the squares in that circle and then wrote it down. Hopefully he did it right.

Gold shook her head.
"You need Greek 101, too, Mr. T," she said cheerfully. Yep, he did. Alongside Love 101 and Tact 101, of course.
Hehe.
She stood back as he worked, and gave him a small - though warm - smile when he was done. Then, bending down a little, she started to calculate the average number of squares inside the circles for the thirty and forty degree tilts. One-by-one, of course.
The first total went down in the '30' row of the 'Graph Paper 1' column; and the second, in the '40' row.
"One graph paper down, two more to go," Gold said cheerfully, as she laid down her quill, picked up the graph paper, and carefully set it aside. Then she reached out for the second graph paper they had worked on, and handed it to Torin, so that he could count the total number of squares in one or two of the circles in it.

There.
He snorted. "I do not. You do." 'cause she wasn't even Greek. So there. He beat her yet again. He loved beating her, it was a lot of fun.
He waited for her to do the other totals for the graph paper, and then started on the next sheet. He counted the numbers for the first two circles, and filled in the totals in the correct columns for them.

Eh? Gold did not need Greek 101! She was perfectly fluent in French, English and Latin, thank you. Those were all the languages she needed to know, really. French because, well, she was French; English to communicate at Hogwarts; and Latin because it was cool.
Greek 101?
Pfft, she did NOT need Greek 101!
"Do not," she said, but she was grinning, and it was clear she had not minded, or anything. This was no big deal, really. Because she knew she and Mr. T couldn't help teasing each other.
Pretty much all the time, in fact.
Back to the lab, though. Looked like Torin had made calculations for two of the circles. Gold pushed back the vividly red hair that was happily escaping the grasp of the tiny, golden butterfly clip that held a bunch of her bangs to one side of her head, and started to work again.
She calculated the total number of squares in the circle labelled 20° and noted that down in the appropriate cell of the table she had drawn. Then she turned to the circle labelled 30° and, working out the average total of the squares that it encompassed, recorded the number in the '30' row of the column for the second graph paper.
"Your turn!" She straightened up, and passed the graph paper to Mr. T. Only one more circle to go, and then they could get started on the last graph paper. Yay for teamwork!

"You do too," he countered simply as he smiled at her. She really did if she thought that he did. Because she should have known that he had spent 14 years of his life in Greece and was so much better than she was. He could even teach her in Greek 101, he was that good.
When she was done doing the 20 and 30 degree circles, he counted for the 40 one and wrote down his results.

"And we are on to the last piece of graph paper!"
Hehe.
"We are," Gold said, beaming at Torin and deciding to let the topic of who needed Greek 101, and who did not, go. For now only, of course. She was so going to get him, later! Teehee.
She took the graph paper from her fellow co-prefect, placed it on top of the first, and then picked up the only graph paper that now remained.
Now for ze calculations.
She began, of course, with the circle labelled 0° and, counting the average number of squares in it, wrote that down in the appropriate cell of the table she had drawn up, a while ago. Then she turned to the circle labelled 10° and, calculating the total squares it encompassed, jotted down the number in the '10' row of the very last column.
"Here you go, Mr. T."
She gave Torin a friendly smile, as she passed him the last graph paper. They were almost done, now.

She had lost this battle. He knew it because she didn't say anything to him. She knew he was right. Awesome.
He let her do the first two calculations, and then took over for her, counting the squares for both the 20 and 30 degree circles. Then he recorded them.

Rawr!
Looked like Mr. T had decided to do two calculations, too. Once more, of course. Gold nodded to herself as she waited for him to finish the second one and, when he was done, took the graph paper.
Bending down a bit, she counted the total number of squares in the circle labelled 40° - the last circle of the last graph paper, will you believe that? Hehe - and, that done, wrote down the number she had obtained, in the last row of the last column.
"Done!" She announced, straightening up and beaming at Torin. "What do we have to do, now?"
As if to answer her own question, she glanced down at the sheet of instructions. The next step read:
Quote:
Plot the degree of tilt on the x-axis and the average number of squares illuminated on the y-axis.

"I have no idea what that means."
He was really hoping that she did.
Aww. AWWW.
Clueless!Mr. T was CUUTE!
Okay, not really.
"Well, we have to plot a graph," Gold said, shrugging as she picked up a fresh graph. "This is the x-axis -" she showed it to him. "- and this one, the y. The degree of the tilt has to be shown on the x-axis, and the corresponding number of squares, on the y-axis."
To clarify her explanation, she picked up her quill, dipped it in pink ink and, with the help of the readings she had noted down in their lab notebook, started to plot the graph.
When it was done, she capped the inkpot, laid her quill on the table, and held the graph up for Torin to see.
Photos!: Ze graph!
"You could draw one, if you want to practice," she suggested, as she set the graph paper to one side.
"I'll... give it a shot." He shrugged. "You're probably better at tracing than I am anyway."
Tapping the button on the flashlight twice, just for funsies, he swapped places with Lina and held the board.
She giggled as he played with the flashlight, then settled over on the other side, picking up the pencil. "Okay..." She laid the ruler down. "So, we should set it at the same distance as the other..."

That made no sense! She looked back up at the grid paper for another few seconds before writing another thing on her paper and what she wrote stayed this time.
She kept a good grip on the book as her boyfriend traced the circle the flashlight was making. "That's a perfect circle," she said as she examined the grid paper. Once he wrote the degrees down, she slowly moved her hands away from the book to let it balance once more before turning to Jack. "Measure it. Gotcha," she responded as she took the protractor from him.
She looked over the instructions to see how far she had to measure the paper, and then she examined the protractor to find the '10 degree' marking. After finding it, she placed it next to the book and tilted it back 10 degrees and that's where she held it at. "Okay, you can trace the circle now," she told Jack with a smile.
Jack smiled and took out his quill once more, tracing the image of the circle and scribbling a tiny 10 next to it to indicate that it was 10 degrees. "Alright, time to take notes," he mumbled, pulling his parchment closer to him and making note of the brightness of the circle. It was still pretty bright, but it had dimmed somewhat. Jack was sure it would be more noticeable once the paper moved even more!
"Alright, ready for 20 degrees?" he asked with a smile.

"Er. Right." Raiden nudged the ruler on the table and moved the board back a little bit. It looked like it was close to where it had been before... he glanced at Lina. "There?"
She picked up the ruler and measured the circle. "Two and a half. That's close enough, I think." She put the ruler down and started sketching the circle. She did it in short strokes and took a little longer than Raiden did, but got it done. "It's hard drawing on this... it's like trying to draw on the bottom of a wall."

"Umm... maybe later. More like never."
Oh.
"No problem," Gold said, though she made a mental note to talk to Mr. T about this, later on. If he thought she was going to help him with NEWT-level study, but let the fact that he did not know how to plot a proper graph pass, he was sorely mistaken!
She took her responsibilities - or imagined responsibilities - quite seriously, thank you very much.
But that could come later, all of it. For now, they had to get this project done. With an inward shrug, Gold turned her bright green gaze back to the sheet of instructions they had been provided. The graph had been plotted, and now they needed to... ah yes.
There it was.
"We need to see what the graph tells us," she looked up at Torin for a second, then reached for ink, quill and parchment.
SPOILER!!: What Gold wrote
Case Study
{ The Reasons for the Seasons }
by
Gold Laksh
Fifth year; Gryffindor
&&
Torin Kane
Sixth year; Hufflepuff
{ }
There.
The fifth year looked back up at Torin. "That sounds right enough, doesn't it?" she asked cheerfully. "Now, we have to study the relationship between the number of squares and the axial tilt." She glanced at the graph again. Increase in one quantity, meant increase in the other quantity. Which was a clear indication that the relationship, here, was direct.
SPOILER!!: Observation I
Observation I:
The area of the circle - and, hence, the total number of squares it encompasses - increases with an increase in the axial tilt. This shows that the two have a direct relationship, that is to say that a rise or drop in one, causes a respective rise or drop in the other.
Proof through the graph:
The average number of squares when there is no tilt, is four. These increase to eight, when the tilt is at an angle of ten degree; and to twelve, when the tilt is at an angle of twenty degrees.
Straightening up, she laid her quill aside, and turned back to the sheet of instructions. Brightness?
Right.
SPOILER!!: Observation II
Observation II:
As the total number of squares in a circle increases, so does the area of the circle. This means that the same amount of light has to travel a greater distance, than before.
Inference III:
The greater the axial tilt, the greater the distance the light has to travel. This means that some parts of the circle will be able to get more of it, while others, not as much. Consequently, the closer a certain point of a circle is to the source of the light, the brighter the intensity of the light that reaches it; and - correspondingly - the farther, the less luminous the light it soaks up.
She read the instructions that remained, and gave Torin a cheerful smile. "Now we get to tie this project up with the seasons we experience," she said happily. They were almost done!
Rawrr.
Dipping her quill in pink ink again, she turned her attention back to the page she had been working on.
SPOILER!!: Observation III
Observation III
{ The Reason for the Seasons }
This project shows that the main reason for the change in seasons is the earth's axial tilt.
Links:
The flashlight is the Sun, our source of illumination and heat. The circle it forms, on the other hand, is the Earth. The Sun and the Earth behave in the same way as the flashlight and the circle.
Inference:
{ How the Seasons Happen }
When the sunlight falls directly on the earth - that is to say, when there is no tilt between the two celestial bodies - the season that happens is summer, as the earth absorbs the maximum possible amount of light.
The earth is in continuous revolution, which means that it tilts away or towards a certain point. When there is an axial tilt, light has to cover more distance to reach the earth. As a result, the part closest to the Sun absorbs a good amount of light, and sees summer. The parts farther off get less light, and experience other seasons - such as autumn and winter. The part that is the farthest off, does not get much light and, consequently, sees winter.
SPOILER!!: Observation IV
Observation IV:
At any degree of axial tilt, the part of the circle closest to the flashlight receives the greatest amount of light; while the part farthest away, receives the least.
Inference IV:
The two opposite faces of the earth always experience different seasons. This is because one of them receives greater sunlight; and the other, very little.
She looked up at Mr. T.
"Almost done!" she announced. Well, more than almost - they were done. But Gold was sure she could put a few finishing touches to the observations and written material, if they had a few more minutes.

He was happy that she was going to take care of this part without him; he was rather lost and would have done a bad job of it if he tried. He didn't even get what she was writing down here. At least he didn't have to do graphs.

Reese kept the book steady as Jack traced circle number 2 on the graph paper and when he was done tracing, she lifted the book back to 90 degrees so that it would stay balanced by itself. She placed one finger on her parchment and slid it closer to her before looking back over what she had previously wrote. Then, she examined the brightness on the new circle for a few moments before writing her observations down. The circle the flashlight was making on the graph was getting bigger!
"I sure am," she said as she finished scribbling something on her paper. She picked the protractor back up and placed it next to the book, measuring 20 degree. Then, she tilted the book back and looked up at Jack. "Ready," she told him.

Jack yawned. This was getting repetitive. How far did they have to go? 40 degrees? That was just a few more...then he could go nap! He needed a nap. Soooo bad.
He whistled to himself as he traced the 20 degree circle, and he scribbled a little 20 next to it as well so they'd remember what degree it went to. "The flashlight is hitting more and more of the graph paper as you go down," he observed out loud to Reese before grabbing his parchment and scribbling a few notes.
"Ok, we have 30 degrees to do, then 40 and we are DONNNNE," he said with a grin.
"Well...done with THIS piece of paper," he said with a sigh as he looked at the instructions again. BOOOO he had forgotten that they had to do it more than once!
Well, that was ok. They were sure to fly through the rest of it once they got the hang of it the first time.
