Technically technical all the time Bookaholic

Professor Branxton leaned against his desk at the front of the classroom with his arms crossed, resting his clean-shaven chin between his thumb and forefinger, and critically watching the class as the students took their turns answering his questions. "Very good. All those who participated will earn five points for their respective houses," he said, standing up straight.

His wand appeared in his hand as he dropped his arms and flicked it toward the blackboard:

Lesson One: Introduction to Potions and Brewing Safety


Potion: a magical liquid, concoction, or mixture

Uses: poison, antidote, therapeutic, or other uses limited only by the brewer's imagination and expertise
He started pacing as he read from the board. "You've all given very apt descriptions for what potions are. This is a simplified and to the point definition: potions are simply a magical liquid, concoction, or mixture and they have innumerous uses.

"I know you are all bored unto death of hearing these introductory lectures but, again please bear with me so we can quickly move on. I will assign homework after each class pertaining to the potion we will be brewing in the next class. I will post an answer key prior to the start of class as well as class notes which should be reviewed before you even think about taking out your cauldron. This leads us directly into the second part of our discussion: Brewing Safety. We will now go around the room once again and I would like each of you to give me one safety guideline you should follow when brewing potions."
