Seventh Years; Lesson 6

This was their last class before exams. Professor Lyra Potter was confident that her students would be able to do well on their NEWTs, well, most of them would be able to. She didn't have anyone in particular that she was worried about not passing. As she sat behind the desk, she prepared to grade and return their pages that day so they would be ready to go. They were not covering anything today that was taught this year, but she wanted to make sure they reviewed that on their own.

As soon as the class was there, Professor Potter stood and began the class with a smile on her face. "Today is your last Transfiguration class! You should be very proud. You have done something that no other students in this castle can claim. You have completed seven years of Transfiguration and are prepared to take the NEWT. Congratulations!" She made a wave with her hands and their previous work flew to the proper desks. "Your work from last week was excellent as always. You will be ready for anything that we throw at you on the NEWT." With a nod, she turned and picked up the last review stack. "I have one simple change for this week. I ask that you stay while I grade your paper so that you may have it for review. After you have your page back, you are free to go. I will see you all when you sit for your NEWTs in a week." Lyra handed the last paper out, then turned and made her way to her desk once again. Sitting down, she flipped through her quidditch magazine while waiting for students to finish.

[Savannah Walters]

Savannah was very pleased that she didn’t have the exams until the end of the year, though it would be a lot of exams at once, it would be good to just have a couple of weeks of nothing. Her classes weren’t hard, it was just a lot of revision and she had a lot of other things to be getting on with. Savannah was also looking forward to the yuleball and letting her hair down a little bit with that. The ravenclaw was grabbing the last few things she needed and then headed out of the room.

Savannah walked into the transfiguration classroom and took her usual spot in the room. She glanced at the professor as the woman got started and Savannah knew this would be a boring lesson. There was no way the professor would do anything interesting when the whole semester had been pretty dull. She took the quiz and set about filling it out, making sure that she was answering the questions it was asking properly. She got it marked by the professor and then was happy to be able to leave the room.
