Homework Rules

* Do NOT plagiarize or cheat!!!.
Please do not paste things verbatim, from another source. Please do not copy another member's ideas. If you need help, ask me. If you don't understand something, PM me. I am here to help. If I come across plagiarism, I will deduct points.

* Homework is due on the due date listed, not any later!

*You can only submit homework once!
Make sure that you have everything you need in your first PM because I will not grade a second PM if you realize you forget something. I just grade the first one, so make sure it says what you want it to say.

* Late homework will not be accepted....period...no exceptions...Sorry!

* Grammar and punctuation are important.
I will consider grammar and punctuation. Nobody is perfect, but if you are willing to take out the time to do an assignment, please be willing to take out a few extra minutes to make sure I can read, what you have written.

* Don't over-exert yourself
I can't stress this strongly enough. Don't kill yourself, trying to make your homework the best. If it's well thought-out and nicely written, I promise it will get full credit.

*Using your pirate name, create a legend/story about yourself and your crew that incorporates atleast five pieces of magic or magical creatures. Make sure that you legend/story is thorough and creative. Don't just use another pirate's story and place your pirate name into it.

*Remember that you can make your pirate a mean one or if you would like to be a nice pirate that's fine. Just have fun with it!

*A good legend/story would be about two parchments long (4-5 good paragraphs.)

*Have fun with this and be as creative as you want!

Extra Credit:

Option One:
Create a Jolly Roger flag for your pirate ship. You can use whatever colors you would like. You can use the basic red, black, white, and yellow, and/or you can incorporate whatever colors you would like. Your flag does not have to be all about death and destruction if you don't want it to be.

Option Two:
Visit the Hogwarts Library (literally go there and visit the Library and research by asking questions of the librarian, etc. This is the only place to find this information.) and research Barnabus the Bloody. (Yes he was a real pirate linked to Hogwarts!) And write a couple of paragraphs explaining who he was and why he was seen close to Hogwarts.
