Originally Posted by SeerCassandraTrelawney "So you can see where we need the most help, and assist us accordingly." Cassandra answered. She glared at Xana. It wasn't being a Hufflepuff, it was the truth, and she was an idiot for not seeing it. "Yes, very good, Xana, Cassandra. 3 points to each of you." Quote:

"It certainly does help. 3 points." Quote:
Originally Posted by DeathEater24601 "Yes, journals are helpful so he can point and laugh at our work." Diabolica smirked in response to Marco's comment. Armand only eyed Dia for the comment and moved on. Quote:
Originally Posted by Willow_Kovac "Because that way you can keep track of our mistakes, and then correct them?" Mistakes such as killing a plant. Just like she had done with hers. "It certainly helps," he said, eying her plant, "most of the time. 2 points." Quote:
Originally Posted by SlytherinSistah 'Why WOULD he have us keep journals?' Claudian gave some thought to this. Although he wanted to give a deeper answer, he didn't want to risk venturing off topic. "Is it because you want us to remember the things we've actually learned in your Herbology class, Professor? And to monitor our own learning, not just the growth and responses of the plant." He asked, though he didn't think the Professor was that altruistic. Not anymore. "Very good, Claudian. 3 points." Quote:

In that sense you can test several procedures on a plant and review the outcomes without having to use further plants perhaps?" Hermy frowned, trying to give a different answer to those before her. "Ah, excellent points, Hermy." He calculated quickly. Yes, Slytherin had a good number of points already. "4 points." Quote:

Xana hypothesized. He nodded. "Such things are also useful in the Ministry. Those of you who are aiming for a Ministry position, take note of this. 4 points."
"Now I've read through your journals and I can't say I'm entirely pleased, so this lesson will have quite the focus on your journaling techniques. Before we get started, however, I want to backtrack for a short time into the last lesson. For those of you who have a living, blossoming konkagami, why don't you give me an interpretation of the flower that you have. For those who don't currently have one that is blossoming, if it did blossom in the time I was gone feel free to describe it."
