Connor came fully prepared for the fourth lesson of her first year class. She was rather excited as she had seen much improvement in their last class on their techniques and use of the wand. Waving her wand the desks and chairs began to pile themselves at the back of the room. She station quite a few dummies in the front of the room. There wasn't enough for everyone as her class was rather large, but she was sure they could share. She smiled at the class as the students began to file in. She urged them with hand gestures to continue to move into the classroom allowing all the students to enter the class. "Today, the classroom looks a bit different to you, it's no trick of the light I assure you. I have moved all your chairs and desks to the back, as today we are going to be doing more hands on work. You'll be given time at the end of class to take any notes you wish, and I'll have information on the board you can copy." Connor said as she stood in front of the dummies. She was rather excited about this class. She had seen such enthuastic students last time when they got to move around, so today she decided it would be best to really get them to move around. "Today we will learn two spells. Both very similar so it shouldn't be too hard on you." Connor said as she began to walk towards the students. In her head she was counting of course, as if preparing herself for a duel. Bringing her wand up to face she smiled at the students before quickly turning around. "Depulso!" The dummy flew backwards but she did not take much time to notice before turning her wand towards another dummy. "Everte Statum!" The dummy flew back however not as powerfully as the first. Turning back towards the students she looked down at the short children in front of her. "The first, is the Banishing Charm. This charm is to the opposite of the Summoning charm. Therefore it is more difficult to manage at first. For this I will need you all to line up in six lines across from one of the dummies," Connor Barnard said to her class as she moved the two back into their places. Standing at the front of the class once more she took out her wand. "Now this spell is one which requires a sweep of your wand, be sure that you're pointing it at the object which you want to send away. And you'll say 'Depulso'. The first students in the lines please go ahead, once you've tried please return to the end of the line. I want you each to do this charm twice. Please be sure to point at the dummy." Connor said before standing in the center of the class between the third and forth lines. She did not want any student banishing her around the room due to their lack of aim. It took awhile as the student went around in their lines to complete the charm twice. Helping a few along the way she was pleased to see them complete the charm by the end. Moving to the front of the classroom once more, Connor waved her wand and the dummies placed themselves back to their starting positions. Her face was serious as she looked out at the students. "Very good. Next is 'Everte Statum'. This is a dueling charm. You are not to do this charm at another student, do you hear me?" Connor said looking about the classroom. Safety was her top priority, the last thing she needed was a student being sent to the Hospital Wing. "Pointing at your opponent, you'll say 'Everte Statum' a orange light will burst from your wand and cause a sharp pain in your opponent which will cause them to fall backwards. Those first in line proceed and practice as you did the last." Connor said, of course she did not know what orange really was, but she had bee taught that the charm produced an orange color, unlike the disarming charm which was red. She did not know the difference with her disability. Once the students were finished she dismissed them to further copy down the names of the charms and what they did or to leave then if they wished too. Role Play the lesson. Feel free within reasonable bounds have Professor Barnard helping your student. |

Ready and eager to learn, Andrea arrived in the Charms classroom with her friend Paige in tow. She knew that Charms was one of Paige's favorite classes and so, was glad to be able to share this opportunity with her friend. As they stepped into the room though, Andrea's eyes widened at the change in scenery. The room was bare, having been cleared of desks and chairs which now lined the back of the classroom and there was a row of target dummies in the front. Which meant....they would be doing magic! Cheering silently, Andrea exchanged an excited look with Paige and set her bag in the back, extracting her wand from its holster along her forearm. Lining up as instructed, Andrea made sure to be behind someone else, not wanting to be the first to try out the new spells. When her turn came though, she took a deep, settling breath and pointed her wand at the target. "Depulso." She said, loudly and clearly, smiling slightly when the target moved back about a foot. It wasn't as powerful as it could have been but it was a good start. The next time around she tried again and this time the dummy flew back about five feet. Grinning, Andrea volunteered to be the first for the next one and lifted her wand to point at the restored dummy. "Everte Statum!" She cried eagerly...a bit too eagerly. A huge burst of orange light exploded from the tip of her wand and shattered the dummy. Blushing fiercely and apologizing profusely, Andrea watched as Professor Barnard fixed the target for the rest of the class...Andrea never did do her second try. They were dismissed a moment later and the young Slytherin had already gotten over her embarrassment, joining Paige as they made their way back to their common room. |
