Did You Know?
Braces, or suspenders, were almost universally worn due to the high cut of men's trousers. Belts did not become common until the 1920s. — MJ
Had it really come to this? Passing Charles Macmillan back and forth like an upright booby prize?

NEWT charms class


The students walked through the door into the lesser used antechamber that had obviously been decorated to very closely resemble the great hall, it was a cavernous with tables all ready and in position for students and the walls adored with Slytherin banners as recent recipients of the house cup. That wasn't right, was it? Professor Bowen stood at the lectern waiting for them with a smile on her face. The more perceptive students would observe that something was missing from the recreation. Unlike in the great hall, the vaulted ceiling beams were not currently obscured by the permanent enchantment that usually filled the ceiling of the great hall. It made the whole room look quite stark above a certain height.

”Good morning NEWTs, welcome to the Great Hall. As you have probably noticed, the enchantment on the ceiling is missing.” she gestured upwards with her wand, following the beam down the centre of the room which ended above the door that now seemed larger than the one they came in by. ”Now, I do not expect any of you to miraculously have memorised an ancient enchantment cast by our founders, but today's challenge is to at least rebuild part of it using the skills you have already learned and a few new spells regarding charm persistence that will give them a little more staying power.” she gestured with her hand and manuscripts flew from a stack and landed at each of the seats the students had picked.

”The difference between an OWL charmer and a NEWT is that once you charm the world, the world remembers…Now observe.” she cast a spell from her wand, it was an orange whip of light, but the words and gesture she used was slightly different and instead of cracking then subsiding, the whip continued from the tip of her wand and coiled about like a serpent for many seconds before she flicked her wand again and it vanished.

”You may work alone or in groups as you please, your final group effort shall be assessed by much harsher critics than I as the OWL students shall be using this space tomorrow to conjure their lunch. she raised her eyebrows and grinned a challenge towards the group, the best and brightest students in the castle were going to have a lovely time with this project.



Please add the following code to your first post, it may or may not be used in class today, but it will also be used to build a long-term opinion of each student by the professor.

Code:
[B]Talent in charms[/b]: awful/bad/average/good/excellent
[B]Effort put in today[/b]: none/minimal/average/good/excellent
[B]General attitude today[/b]:
