"Okay everyone. Miss Dixon here will help in the demonstration of what happens when you are caught in a heavy rain storm and not under the protection of protego caelum. I'd like everyone to take at least five steps back please if you do not wish to get wet."
Time for the non-verbals. With a quick wave of her wand Sophia conjured up a rain cloud roughly the size of one of the classroom tables which settled nicely over Nessie's head.
"This class..is a rain cloud. I'll just give you a quick bit of history before moving on. Not so long ago and even now, it was believed that witches were able to manipulate the weather. Muggles believed that when we were upset or up to something particularly nasty we could conjure horrible tempest and plague the land. This is true." She smiled. "But only powerful wizards are able to do so, so today we'll focus on blocking natural weather elements." With a another flick of her wand, there was a crack of thunder which resounded around the room, then the cloud started pouring rain...very cold rain.
After almost a minute Professor Bellaire waved her wand again and stopped the rain.
"Wasn't very fun was it Miss Dixon?" She shooed the girl form under the cloud and grabbed her own cloak which she slipped into then stepped into the spot Nessie had previously occupied.
"Now you'll need to clearly say Protego Caelum while making a clock-wise circular motion with your hand followed by a quick steady flick. Those of you with firmer wands should have an easier time with this charm."
Sophia Demosntrated by performing the charm on her own cloak. There was another crash of thunder then the rain started. Instead of wetting her cloak or touching it even the rain drops seemed to be deflected by an invisible barrier.
"Once we master this spell we'll add some wind to it." She stopped the rain and produced more rain clouds.
"Now I want everyone to practice their charm properly before going under a cloud. When you think you are ready, step under the cloud and say 'ready.' Once everyone gets the hang of it we can take the room for a little spin. Carry on."
Sophia started heading in the direction of the coconut water then paused." And for those of you who neglected to bring the proper gears there is a blue trunk with extras."
Minerva watched as the Professor used Ness to demonstrate how it would be if you did not have protection. Minerva felt bad as she watched her house mate get soaked, but she kept quiet and watched as the demonstration finished. Then she watched as the professor placed her cloak on and stepped under the cloud. Listening to make sure she got everything correct when it was her turn.
Then the professor told them to get their clocks on and practice the charm. This was the time Minerva always loved. She turned pulling her cloak over her shoulders and made sure it was on correctly. Then she thought about the charm saying it softly "Protegors Caelumes" no that wasn't correct.. What was it again, Minerva looked around trying to hear the others, oh yes that was it "Protego Caelum" She said it a little louder to herself "Protego Caelum" Once she had practiced her spell she stepped under a cloud "Ready" she said as directed.

Nicholas rose slowly from the sand and blinked around at the student's that scampered out of the way. He hadn't meant to spook them.
Just as she said ready a head popped up near her and she jumped, but then realized is was just Sir Nicholas. She then moved back under her cloud, "Ready again" she said as she got set and then looked over at Sir Nicholas, "Good Day Sir Nicholas" she said softly to greet him so he knew he didn't freak them out to much. Then she turned and looked for the next instruction from the professor.
