Saturday Study Corner 06/09 – 12/09

Astronomy (All Years)
Professor Priaulx (Bay Quartz)
Practice using your telescope
I would like you to go outside around the time of sunset and locate the two planets I pointed out to you earlier that are /currently/ in the south west ((1am in the morning)). I’d like two feet on how you located them, where they are in the sky using the techniques we discussed this morning, and if you can tell me which planets they are I will give house points if you provide an extra foot on each of them.”
((a foot is a paragraph – https://www.timeanddate.com/astronomy/night/uk/inverness ))

Defence Against the Dark Arts
Professor Macauley (George Mumbhata)
Practice taking down students using quick, handy spells like Petrificus Totalus or Flipendo. (points given if a log of rp is sent)

Defence Against the Dark Arts (All Years)
Professor Vikander (SamuelRyder Resident)
Prepare, individually or with a partner, a presentation on a Dark Wixen. Include their biographical details and a brief summary of their activities. If known, include how they were defeated or killed, and your thoughts on what led to their downfall.

Ghoul Studies (All Years)
Professor Esper (Ghost Riler)
Students should write two pages of parchment. On the first parchment introduce yourself & tell me a little about you. This will not be shared with the class. On the second parchment tell me what experience you have with ghosts, including if you’ve none at all. (( OOC – one parchment = one paragraph/5 sentences ))

Potions (All Years)
Professor Green (ProfessorJuniperGreen Resident)
Four parchments on the equipment used in making potions. I want to know why a certain material must be used and what material should never be used. For example, wooden cauldrons over wooden mortars and pestles.
