"Welcome back to another year of Transfiguration guys. You all know who I am, but for those who may have transferred or were recently on the receiving end of a poorly used memory charm, I am Professor Aeon Summers." Aeon said with a grin. "Let's get right down to business, shall we?" He waved his wand at the board and as with the previous years, the chalk sprang to life and got to work.

Imbuing objects with magic: Switching Spells
"This year we are going to focus primarily on switching spells. Who can tell me what switching spells are? As self explanatory as it is." He looked around, not surprised by the many raised hands, and pointed to a student sitting near the front of the class.

"Switching spells are those spells that switch two objects with each other."

"Correct! Two points for you. Now switching spells may seem like useless spells at first, but after a while you'll see their potential. Their major use is in trickery. Many objects at prank shops are imbued with switching spells." He fondly recalled his time spent at joke shops when he was younger. Wands turning into chickens were a good example of the spell.

One of the students raised their hand.

"What does imbue mean, professor?"

Summers considered the question for a moment, wondering how to phrase it. "It means...to put one item, idea, or in this case spell, into a second one." He explained as simply as he could.

With that. he flicked again at the blackboard, making appear what looked like an assignment.

"Unfortunately, I'll have to leave a more in depth explanation for a later class. For now, I'll need everyone to complete the task written on the board. I hope everyone has their writing utensils. You can submit the assignment before you leave class today."
Homework: For extra credit, you have several options:
1) Essay: Write everything on what you know about switching spells.
2) Essay: Write a trick that was performed on you or someone else. You can use something from an RP, you can use a real historical trick that you researched, or you can make one up. If there are any spells involved, please state them. Please have this be 250-350 words.
3) Draw a picture (by dolling, blending, using artpad, or whatever) with the same theme as #2.Transfiguration,4,1

[justify]The fourth year was feeling pretty good about the semester, she definitely had missed her boyfriend over the holiday, she hadn't really told anyone in her family yet about the growing relationship and she was glad that her elder cousin had said nothing about it either, but the bigger and better news had been the fact that his elder cousin and his wife were having a baby and that trumped whatever she had, which Lydia was happy with. The teen was however excited for what this new semester would bring and she was excited for what it would become. There was quidditch to be had and fun to be had, and the teen was looking forward to every moment of it. The hufflepuff rolled out of bed as she then began getting ready for the day of classes in this very first week, she was much looking forward to the day of classes and even more so since she was just excited to spend any time with Felix. Eventually the girl was ready, she gathered her things and then left the room, heading straight to the classroom she needed to for her class.

The class which Lydia had first was the transfiguration class and she quickly took her usual seat in the room as the professor at the front just got work, she looked behind the blonde man at the words which appeared on the board behind him, and thought that it was pretty obvious what the spells did so when the question was posed, Lydia raised her hand, "Switching spells are those spells that switch two objects with each other." the girl answered in a polite tone and a small smile appeared on her face when it turned out she was right. The lesson continued and she listened to the question asked, and she was glad for it, having also no clue what imbue meant. The teen was surprised however when that appeared to be the end of the lesson. She packed up her things and then left the room, making a small note of the homework, intending to do it after quidditch practice.
