1. Once the brewing time for your potion is up, come to the classroom to put the fire out and add the animal sample you want. Do NOT come if it's after curfew, then I'll put it out and drop by in the morning.
2. Take a dose of it and have fun in the school until it wears off.
3. Write about your experience and owl it to me. It should be 1 inch long.
4. For those whose potion I have vanished*, take from the potion I brewed for you.
5. You can work in pairs or alone.
6. If you want to use your own animal, owl (PM/VM/Skype/Twitter) me first.

OOC Instructions

1. You do not have to RP coming to the classroom. Just imagine your characters did.
2. You do not have to specify how long the potion is effective for, but please try to have a general idea, as there is a HUGE difference between 15 minutes and 5 hours of being an animal and that should affect how you RP. With this in mind, this is how I'll grade the homework:

   • The duration of the potion vs. your characters' potions ability (eg. a first year is very unlikely to brew a potion that lasts longer than an hour)
   • Details in your RPs such as: being foreign to that animal body at first, different perception of the five senses (don't go research how animals do that, I don't want that at all! I want your creativity) and so on.
   • Your interaction with other RPers (not necessary, only if you do)
   • General HW grading rules (creativity, plausibility etc)

3. 1 inch=one paragraph of 3 sentences (it can be longer than that)
4. *: If I haven't quoted you during class for a mistake and/or PMed you, then you can say your character's potion is successful. The potion Cosgrach will provide will last for ONE hour.
5. I want a minimum of four posts. There is no maximum. Don't forget to include ALL of the links. The count starts at the first post the transfiguration starts.
6. You can still do the homework even if you missed the class as always.
7. As I have stressed it many times during the class, they still retain their human mind 100%, so RP accordingly. Thank you <3

Worth: 16 points+4 EC for an outstanding effort
Due: September 29, 23.59 GMT+1/18.59 DST.

There are two options for this homework. Please only complete ONE of them for credit. Doing more will not earn you double the house points. Extra credit is available to outstanding efforts and creativity.

⌦ option one (worth 15 pts)
Using your textbook, illustrate and label a chart showing the difference between a simple impact crater and a complex impact crater.

Vocabulary to include:

• central uplift
• floor
• impact breccia
• impact ejecta/ejecta
• impact melt
• raised rim
• rays
• wall

You may include additional information beyond the above if you wish.

OOC: This is a graphics specific assignment. Graphics should be your original work and not something copy pasted from the internet.

⌦ option two (worth 15 pts)
The Moon's surface is covered in craters. Simply looking up at it from our perspective here on Earth makes this fact obvious. Take your telescope and the appropriate spell to focus it, go out on the grounds or to the observatory (DO NOT DEFILE THE SANCTITY THAT IS THE SANCTUARY OF SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY) and do a bit of "cratergazing". Using your textbook to assist you, locate and identify 3 impact craters on the Moon's surface and pick 1 to write 2 inches on. I highly suggest you wait for the full moon for this assignment so you do not limit your lunar surface viewing area.

OOC: This is a RP specific task and requires a 4 post minimum. 2 inches, in this case, is one solid paragraph of at least 5 thoughtful sentences.

⌦ this assignment is due September 30th @ 11 pm GMT + 9
