Located to the left of the Astronomy classroom's door is a a large circular black framed announcement board. Walk too far to the right or left and its glass surface resembles the phases of the moon, so you must stand directly in front of it to be able to read it. This is the place to find information on class times, homework assignments, and any other Astronomy related announcements Professor Flamsteed feels students should know. Be sure to check back often to make sure you don't miss something important!

for 15 points
Using the vacuum you used in class, continue being a 'living black hole' around the castle and vacuum up some more dust, dirt, grim and felines. Find areas that look as though could really use a good cleaning. I personally recommend the Divination Tower and Professor Elwood's office. You will find the vacuums in a charmed wooden cabinet outside my office.
OOC: RP using your vacuum around the castle in any thread you please. Be sure to use the charm Professor Flamsteed taught in the lesson! You do NOT need RP going to his office to retrieve your vacuum - just pretend as though you already did. There is a 5 post minimum requirement for this assignment.

Please PM me with the links to your posts along with the other requirement stated in my rules.
Up to 5 points may be given for outstanding efforts.

this assignment is due May 26th @ noon GMT+9

Please be sure you have read through Astronomy & Space Navigation and paid particular attention to the rules regarding homework submission. Late homework submissions will not be accepted. Any questions, concerns, or what have you can be sent to me via PM.

Help Maintain Your School
As you all are aware by now, Hogwarts is going through some hard times. With my schedule, I cannot maintain everything in the Astronomy Tower. The Tower Patch is in shambles and this is why I am asking you for your assistance. There are no special gardening tools for you - you all have wands so that shouldn't be an issue - but if you feel the need for something specific you should seek out Professor Bentley.

Some things you can do in the Tower Patch include ::
  • trim the hedges
  • clean the fountain
  • water plants
  • plant and replant vegetation
  • anything else you can think of!
Your efforts will not go unnoticed nor unrewarded!

OOC: In a nut shell, just RP taking care and cleaning up the Tower Patch in the Tower Patch thread. This activity will be open all term and there is no post minimum. Do whatever you and your character feel is appropriate. Any questions can be asked IC to Professor Flamsteed or OOC to me in a PM or VM. You do NOT need to PM me any links, just RP in the thread.


THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR EFFORTS! The time to do this has passed and the Tower Patch looks amazing.

You are to find Polaris and track the path of one of the Five Circumpolar Constellations AND a constellation of your choice on a piece of parchment.

Up to 5 points extra credit may be given for outstanding efforts.

Remember that the stars will rotate counterclockwise as the night moves on

This part of the assignment will be due Saturday, June 22th @ 11:59 pm GMT+9

Please be sure you have read through Astronomy & Space Navigation and paid particular attention to the rules regarding homework submission. Late homework submissions will not be accepted. Any questions, concerns, or what have you can be sent to me via PM.

_______________+FINAL EXAM


This final assignment will be combined with your final exam and will be worth 45 points in total, so please put your full effort into it.

for 15 points

Inspired by Miss Fischer's ice cream question in class, I want you to create your own original ice cream flavor inspired by Polaris. Take into account everything you have learned this term when creating it.

I would like you to send me a list of flavor ingredients along with a 1-2 sentence minimum explanation as to why you selected that particular ingredient.

a basic example of this format could be ::
base flavor :: vanilla ( reason here )
chopped walnuts ( reason here )
caramel ( reason here )
chocolate fudge brownie bits ( reason here )
OOC: You are NOT required to RP your character making and taste testing of your ice cream flavor anywhere in the castle. Be creative with your reasoning and don't be afraid to be silly! As long as your character is showing that know something about Polaris and reflect that with their logic Professor Flamsteed will be pleased. The more detail and effort you show, the more likely you are to receive full credit.

More ingredients does NOT mean more credit. You can receive full marks for this part of the assignment with just one ingredient as long as your reasoning is creative and sound

for 30 points
Design an ice cream sundae inspired by everything we have covered this term - black holes and polaris. You may choose to focus on just one or both for your inspiration. You must use at least two different flavors of ice cream along with a minimum of 5 other ingredients. Please also include your reasoning for selecting said flavors and ingredients. These are to be delivered to my office - just set them in the enchanted box underneath the Astronomy announcement board.
OOC: you should create a drawing either by hand or with an image editing program on your computer. DO NOT just take a pre-existing picture of an ice cream sundae from google and turn it in. Again, don't be afraid to get a little silly with this and have some out of this world reasoning behind your choices. Professor Flamsteed is rather easy to please as long as you show you learned something and are thoughtful.

You do not need to RP dropping off the ice cream sundae. We can just pretend that you submitting your drawing to me was your character doing so IC

⌦ this assignment is due July 31st @ midnight GMT+9

Please be sure you have read through Astronomy & Space Navigation and paid particular attention to the rules regarding homework submission. Late homework submissions will not be accepted. Any questions, concerns, or what have you can be sent to me via PM.
