"Good Morning everyone." Mallory greeted the students brightly as the last few entered the classroom, standing and smoothing the hem of her soft yellow robes, a sunflower tucked behind her ear. Her hair was in a single dark braid that fell down her back. Peter was a bit further back, closer to the wall behind her desk with a few charms in place to protect him. He was cooing softly, chewing on his hand and watching the world around him. "I'll try to keep it short today. We will be going over two spells: the Engorgement Charm and the Shrinking Charm," she clasped her hands, pacing slowly through the front of the room,
"The Engorgement Charm enables an object to swell or enlarge themselves at a certain extent. If it goes past that certain point, it will explode, like a balloon would if you blew too much air into it.” the professor explained with a smile, "Although it is not a balloon kind of explosion. It is said to be a violent one, so please do be careful, my dears," she fretted softly, looking over her students with soulful eyes. "While Finite can be used, the Shrinking Charm is also an effective counter-spell. It is quite self-explanatory, but remember that this charm causes shrinking both internally and externally," Mallory explained, taking out her wand.
The professor took out one marble from a box of them on her desk and held it in her hand, holding it at an angle so that everyone could see it, "Engorgio," she spoke loudly enough for the whole classroom to hear, and in response, the marble grew and grew until it was the size of a baseball. "Reducio," she demonstrated as well and the marble went back to its original size. “You’ve seen the spell, now I would like each of you to come up and claim a marble. You can keep this marble; no two are the same. Now, remember, Engorgio is for enlarging and Reducio is for shrinking," she moved back to her desk, watching as each student came up and picked out a marble.
“Be careful not to let anything explode, but if you do that's okay. When you need my assistance just call me or raise your hand. I'll be wandering around," she told them before she let them do as they pleased with the marbles, staying close to try and make sure there were no accidents in the class today. She kept an eye on Peter as well, but he was perfectly fine.
