"I'd like to add, that's within reason," Issy chuckled as she turned around to face the kids again. "Yes, Covadium changes an everyday object, whatever you like...in our case rubbish," she said, gesturing to the bags by her desk. "into something else of use. Something that means we could reuse the rubbish. A version of recycling if you will."

Picking up one of the bags, she moved around the classroom placing two pieces of rubbish on each desk - a plastic bottle and a chocolate frog box. An empty one. Boo. "You all know the incantation, and in a moment I will show you the wand movement. But first I would like you to look at the items I have given you, and decide what you want it to become. Bearing in mind that it is easier to transfigure objects that are similar - so don't try and be too complicated on your first go."

Moving back to her desk, Issy picked her own bottle up and placed it back in a position they could all see. "Now watch closely... you need to do a swish to the left, then gently tap the item, while saying the spell...Co- vah- dium" Isabelle did just that, saying the spell and completing the wand movement. With a little poof her bottle became a fancy carved plastic glass, ready for her to put her firewhiskey into. Although not in class.

Beaming, she looked up at them. "First please recite the spell on it's own, then practice the wand movement without the spell, then by all means try everything together. Just be careful. And concentrate hard. I have more bottles and boxes for you to use for now as well, until we move onto the reversion spell, so just come get another to keep practising."

OOC: I'll be going to bed soon, which is why I've speeded it up a bit. xD Just make sure your charrie doesn't go overboard with anything. Isabelle is still watching!
Sierra was starting to think that she was such a slacker when it came to class. Either that, or she was always incredibly late with speaking up and starting the practicals. She'd been sitting quietly in the back of the room for quite some time, listening carefully to the discussion around her. She only really started paying attention when a plastic bottle and an empty chocolate frog box appeared on her desk.

Great. Garbage.

She made a face at it and then reached for her wand. She was supposed to just practice the incantation first, thought, right? Hmm... "Co-vah-dium," she tested, saying it just like the professor had. "Covadium!" Reaching for her wand, she swished it to the left and then tapped nothing in particular. The spell didn't seem too hard, but then again, she hadn't exactly tried everything altogether yet either.

Raising her wand again--this time toward the bottle--Sierra swished it to the left, tapped the bottle, and said, "Covadium!"

The bottle made a noise like a balloon that had been popped and then grew more and more narrow--and more and more blue in color. Wild-looking...hair?...grew out the top of it, too, which caused Sierra to sort of scoot back in her chair.

She hadn't conjured a creature, had she?!

A second later, she got her answer...

Text Cut: Monkey Pen!


...okay. It could have at least been a quill or something. *eye roll*
