James was glad to be moving from shielding charms onto something truly challenging for his sixth years, nonverbal magic. It was something a lot of student looked forward to learning, not realising how difficult it would be. He watched as his students made their way into the classroom and closed the door once they had all entered. "Today we will be learning about nonverbal magic, we'll start with a bit of a lecture as you will need to understand the principal behind how you do this before you begin, please take out your parchment, quill and ink and follow along with me," It wouldn't be a particularly long lecture but what he had to say was important and they would need to remember the details when it came to practicing.
"Concentration, determination and clarity of your punctuation will be essential for the successful completion of a nonverbal spell," James mentally recoiled, he'd never sounded more like a professor. "You must be focused and single minded when it comes to casting your spell, doubt and distraction will have no place in your mind or your spell simply won't work and trust me, not working is the best outcome in terms of failure," It would do them no favours to jumble their words or get distracted and cause something to blow up. "Next week you'll start practicing to cast Stupefy without speaking the incantation aloud, but for now that's the end of the lesson, no homework per se, but I'd like you to have a go at casting Lumos nonverbally before our next lesson, you shouldn't be able to mess that one up too much," James beamed at them as the door swung open, nonverbal and wandless, occasionally James did like to show off.
