LESSON 1: POP QUIZ
Yep, it's time for that ol' chestnut

Aurora had been having a nice day so far, she had an early night and was feeling bright and fresh for the lesson ahead. She was in the classroom sorting out some of the textbooks for this new year coming up for her previous third years. She got out some pens and paper for the students, she knew how some of them could forget at the start of the year. She sat on the top of her desk, as she usually did before the lesson and swung her legs a little underneath the desk, before she knew it she hard people chatting behind the door, she swung it open and smiled as the students came in.

"Welcome back! Glad to see you all here. This term is going to be lots of fun for us. We are going to be covering Muggle Communications and Travel. There will be a few field trips, as well as plenty of new things to learn about, well, new for many of you at least," she said with a smile. She couldn't wait to cover this unit, it was going to be awesome.

"Okay. Let's get back into things. I want to start out by reviewing a bit from last term. Sooo, my little ducky wucky's we are going to take a quiz!" Professor Merrythought knew that pop quizzes were not fun, but went with it anyways. What better way to get the students back on track? Even though this quiz was a review of last year, it would come in handy for the exams. She flourished her wand, and a piece of paper landed in front of each student. "Use your pens or pencils please and answer these few questions. Once you are done, you are free to go. If you need any new supplies for this year, please feel free to take from the counter in the back."

She turned and sat down at her desk, picking up a muggle novel to read by Martina Cole - a load of cogswollop to be quite honest, yet it was something to do while the students enjoyed the lesson. As the lesson drew to an end, she got all her things away and collected all the textbooks. "Well guys, that's it for today, if you'v done your quiz's, remember next time we'll be doing a little more, seya soon!" Aurora smiled, and dismissed the class.

Lexi was in front of Muggle Studies Classroom, afraid to get in, she always hated this subject. Her grades are poor here even thought she comes from a muggle father and knows more about muggles. But learning it makes her insane, how can magical people survived with it. Standing there with nice uniform, huffing to herself and nervous, Lexi was ready to face another subject that she hate.

Lexi opened the door to see Professor Merrythought, she smiled fakely and went to find herself a desk on the middle. She was now quite a school girl lately and sitting in the middle is the prove, as the bell rang, students where emerging to enter this subject. Many of her classmates likes this subject but she only shrugged it off, who is she to even care about them.

As everyone was ready, Professor Merrythought started by welcoming them. She sigh, annoyed that she had to welcome them back, where else they had their vacation. Lexi almost fell out of her desk when she heard Professor Merrythought that there was a pop quiz coming. "That's not fair." She mumbled to herself and got herself stand and sat again at her desk.

They where given each a paper, she read it and almost killed herself from the questions that where given. It was easy, the lessons from last term was still on her brain. Lexi took out a quill and a black ink from her bag, she started to think for the first question.

1. Does electricity work around magic?
No, the interactions between them are not suited. They will just blew up the Wizarding world if i may say.

2. Name 2 types of muggle currency systems.
Riyal(Saudi Arabia) & Peso(Philippines)

3. What is the basic function of a microwave?
The microwave heats food, it has a timer set. No one should insert metalic things on it because it will explode.

4. Name 2 differences between muggle schools and wizarding schools.
Muggle Schools doesn't have Quidditch but Wizarding Schools has Quidditch. Muggle Schools has lockers but Wizarding Schools doesn't have lockers.
After doing the quiz, Lexi went to stood up from her desk and went at Professor Merrythought to hand her paper. She place a sweet fake smile on her lips when she got nearer from her and gave the paper. When she turned around, she rolled her eyes and went back to her desk to pick up her bag and went out of the classroom.

History of Magic Professor: Yrs 1 -4 | Former Puff & Head Girl: Class of 2027 | Ex-St Mungo's Healer

Patricia woke up early that morning and for the first time in as long as she could remember; she wished she wasn’t at Hogwarts New Zealand. It was a feeling that she never experienced and she didn’t like it, that man has ruined the best thing in my life for me she thought angrily to herself. If she were to say it loud she would worry her friends, friends who she had yet to inform of her new addition to her life. She didn’t like keeping things from her friends, but it wasn’t something she wanted to brag about, in fact she wished she could just forget about it. I wonder would Professor Mercer let me brew the Forgetfulness potion for myself? she pondered as she got ready for class.

Despite her new attitude towards everyone; a cold one, just like daddy she thought to herself, she would still go about her daily routine; run in the morning, shower, breakfast, classes, homework, bed. It had been just over a month now since she found out Professor Styx was her father, but every time the thought crossed her mind, which was much too often for her liking, she felt the urge to be sick. The idea of having Kalif Styx as her father was enough to turn her stomach, she had no idea how his children stood him. Yes she respected the man as a Professor, but nothing more. But as he was his her Professor she was to remain civil to him at the least, that much she promised her mother; a woman she barely spoke two sentences too since mid July, and she could go much longer.

She had never felt so much hatred towards somebody as much as she to her mother at this moment in time. How could she do something like that to…..dad? she thought to herself. The man known as Gerard Rogers; the man she had called her father for 14 and a half years, was still to ‘dad’ to her, and no – one was ever going to change that. After her morning run and shower she returned to her common room and got ready for class. Not caring much for her appearance she didn’t bother to crowd around the mirror with her room – mates to check that her hair and make – up was perfect, she left for the Great Hall. Making her way over to the Hufflepuff table she kept her head down, avoided anyone she might know – especially the view of the Staff Table. Grabbing a piece of toast she quickly made her way out of the Great Hall, the usual buzz of first day jitters and excitement was too much for her to bare.

Looking at her timetable to check her first class she gave a tiny shrug, Muggle Studies was a decent class and Professor Merrythought was a lovely teacher, so she was happy enough to attend it. Entering the classroom she gave a pleasant smile and a tiny wave to Professor Merrythought and took her usual seat of front row centre. When the class began Patricia didn’t really care that they had to do a quiz for the first lesson, it shouldn’t take long, so I can go back to doing nothing quicker she thought to herself and she fiddled with her pen as she waited for Professor Merrythought to hand out the quizzes.
