"The charm can be used to slow down the other person." Astrid shot him a quick smile. A handy charm to keep in mind.

"Wonderful!" Her students were a clever bunch. With a wave of her wand the name of the charm, wand movement and effect was written. "Today we will be studying two charms which will play out for our activity in just a few moments." She had a feeling there were going to be more frowny faces, but that was okay. It was the beginning of the term, the lessons were only going to grow more challenging.

"The next charm we'll be looking at is the Banishing Charm." Her gaze roamed around the room as the spell was written by an invisible entity behind her. "I'm sure you're all tired of sitting down so I will go over it and then we can jump into the next step." Eyes to you quiet ones. "The Banishing Charm does exactly what the name says; it banishes things, sends them away." Clear? Clear. "While Arresto Momentum is the incantation for its spell, the Banishing Charm has its own. Depulso." She paused as it was written on the board. "Everyone repeat after me, de-puhl-so."

Astrid waited for them to do so, and after they did she continued. "It's wand movement is a simple sweep of your wand." She demonstrated, casting the charm silently and sweeping her wand at the quill on her desk, sending it away to her office.

"Listen clearly now, we don't have much class time, so we will take a moment to practice." And then fun! "First through third years will practice Arresto Momentum. Fourth and fifth years will practice the Banishing Charm, sixth and seventh years will as well, but non-verbally." Not a peep from them. "You will only be practicing, not casting, yet. Once you feel confident, please stand up, push in your chair and wait for further instructions." And GO.

OOC: I apologize for rushing the last bit. School starts tomorrow so I'll have a busy week, and I would also like to give you guys enough time for next activity. You only require one post to practice both incantation and wand movement. Thanks!

So he should only use this spell on an object, got it. Davie nodded to show he understood, and made a note of it on his... well, notes. He was disappointed, slightly, as the professor explained the next part of the lesson and informed them that only the fourth years and up would be practicing the Banishing Charm. He could really use that spell, so he wrote down de-puhl-so on his parchment anyway.

Now, to practice. "Arresto momentum, ah-rest-oh-mo-men-tum, arresto momentum! Arresto momentum! Arresto momentum, arresto momentum, arrestomomentumarrestomomentumarrestomomentum!" Okay, he'd said it enough times now. Davie waved his wand, too, though he was OBVIOUSLY not casting anything. He was just waving it, because it was a wand and it was cool.

When he was done, he pushed in his chair and quietly stood behind it, pushing his glasses up his nose further with one fingertip.
