 Potions Lesson 2: Polyjuice Potion
 All the lights are off in the Potions classroom this morning. The room is illuminated only by an enchanted projector, which is playing a loop of clips from famous films on the front wall. You may recognize scenes from legendary movies such as Singin' In The Rain (Don singing in the rain), Star Wars ("I Am Your Father"), The Sound of Music (Maria frolicking on the hills), The Wizard of Oz ("There's no place like home"), and The Breakfast Club (the library dance scene), just to name a few.
Each lab station has two chairs and two cauldrons, both of which are bubbling merrily with the Polyjuice potions your students brewed a month ago. Professor Varma stands by the door to greet you, dressed in a pair of dark, emerald robes—though there is a slight glumness (or perhaps nervousness) to her usually-confident aura today. Her eyes stay glued to the door, trying her best to avoid looking at the movie screen. There would be no emotional tears from her today, thank you very much.
Do come in and take a seat! Class will begin momentarily. OOC: Welcome, everyone! Please remember that if you are playing a student in the Room, they would be escorted to and from the lesson. Class will begin in approximately 24 hours. Class has now begun! If you're just joining us, please play as if you've been here all along.
Lesson Progression:
Q1: If you could be anyone in the world for a day, who would you be and why?
Q2: What are some potential dangers of the Polyjuice Potion?
Mini-Activity: Pair up and interview your partner about their unique mannerisms, movements, voice inflections, and behaviors.
Main Activity: Take the Polyjuice Potion, find a new partner, and try to find out their true identity. |
