Your diaries will be due at the end of the term and graded on thoroughness, progress, and honesty.



OOC: RP your character doing these activities throughout the term, keep an IC journal, and links to your character RPing. You'll be rewarded appropriately by amount of effort shown. Do not turn this in right away, as it is a term long assignment. At the end of term, Lord Borr will accept your diaries via PM unless otherwise stated. You may use the DADA training room, or anywhere else in the school.

A typical entry would include:

IC date/time
IC recount of activity

Defense against the Dark Arts isn't always fought with wands.



Each DADA student is to select a seedling and plant it along the border between the grounds of Hogwarts and the Forbidden Forest. Not only are you providing an extra layer of protection between yourself and the evil creatures that lurk beyond your border (for example centaurs and werewolves), but you're bettering the environment. Plant your seedling and provide it with the proper care to ensure that it will grow into a healthy and sturdy evergreen one day.

Keep all account of your actions, trials, and triumphs in your DADA journal. This assignment will be due at the end of the term with your fitness training journal.
