It only used a large amount of concentration and flick of the wand. And...a little twirl thing at the end now that she watched it. Huh. Who knew!?
While strolling around the classroom, Lexi watched--
tickled pink--as the Flores girl changed the color of a boring old pot to a pretty pink color.
"Excellent job, Miss Flores. Just excellent," she commented. She grew quiet and her eyebrows wrinkled in a mixture of confusion and astonishment as an elephant statue, large belly and all, grazed just past Evelyn. Where had
that thing come from? She had been fairly sure there were no elephants in the boxes, but...hey, it's not like she remembered every last odd assortment she'd thrown into that supply closet.
Her focus on the elephant was broken when she noticed a piece of chocolate making its way toward her desk. Mmm...
chocolate.

How could that rotten boy Fletcher be picked for the Tri-Wizarding Tournament. Yet, Rex has done nothing wrong in school or did not mess with the teachers but was not picked by the GOF. Rex whould have showed those students from DurmStrang and BeauxBatons who is a great leader.
"Well, of course you can. There's an assortment of combined charms you can use, including Accio However, it'd be best in this situation to not try such a spell," she said, glancing around the room and noticing that about a hundred little odds and end were flipping, spinning, and zooming about.
"There's so many objects in here right now that I'm afraid someone might get hurt if two people are tugging away at the same object at one time. Good question, though, Mr. Twigwell." Quote:

"Well, it's just I didn't get a third object from the box," she explained, keeping her green eyes wide and innocent. At least as innocent as possible given the amount of random objects zooming around the room that she didn't want hitting her in the head. "I was wondering if I could use my ferret. He's pretty harmless, I mean he's never bitten anyone. But I guess I can try and figure something else out if you'd rather." Well, Draco hadn't bitten anyone except for her little brother that one time, but that had been extentuating circumstances. He trusted her not to do anything extraordinarily stupid with him. She'd climbed trees with him in her pocket, for Merlin's sake. At least she'd have more control now of where he could go. But she wanted to make sure she wasn't about to risk trouble.
Ahh, a ferret. So
that was what the girl had been asking about when she'd asked if they could levitate one of their personal belongings into---...
...wait just a minute. This kid had a ferret in her classroom?
In her classroom?! Now Lexi was pretty easygoing, and she
did have a random assortment of objects zooming about her room right now, but...a ferret?
"Well, let's think about this for just a moment, shall we? A ferret zooming around the room...such a small creature and such a big room...would likely equal ohh, say...a human being zooming around on a roller coaster," she said. As she talked, her eyes traveled to the girl's bag--there was a ferret in there? *blink*
"I'd venture a pretty good guess that your ferret just might get a bit sick...all over us...if you levitated him and gave him a ride about the classroom. Not only that, I think he'd likely get hit in the head with one of these...flying elephant statues or atlases we have grazing all our heads."
Hmm...
"May I see this ferret, please?" she asked, holding her hand out.
"You'll get him back, I promise." Text Cut: Steelsheen, BanaBatGirl, Ashwinder

The Charms Professor asked him to clarify. She is looking at him!
"D-uhhh....."he mumbled as he shifted uncomfortably in his seat. Still not making eye contact he replied "Arithmancy class. There was a maze. And a chasm in the floor. And gigantic puzzle stones that fit the hole. 'Had to lift them using Wingardium Leviosa to solve the puzzle, form the rest of the floor and run outta the maze."
..... straight onto Fletcher's head, knocking off his hat.
Bullseye! Quickly he took aim at the fallen black hat "Wingardium Leviosa!" It floated high in the air as Salander commanded "Locomotor hat " pulling it towards himself. He flicked his wrist one more time as the hat fell onto his head, then gave it a good tap, securing it. He glanced at the HufflePuff Champion Chieftain and grinned. Well at least that headdress is in his house colors. Not to mention it goes well with his PINK shoes

Plus the jelly beans happened to all fall down when Fletcher started to crack his knuckles.
He shook his head and muttered some rather nasty, rude Irish slang phrases about Kellen and turned back to his work. He leaned back in his chair and studied the sneakoscope, wondering if there was a way to fix the thing.
And that was when he saw them. The awesome, BRAND NEW black dragonhide cowboy boots he had been wearing were now a hideous, incredibly girly shade of pink.
"Oh grossssss," Fletcher grumped, turning his ankles one way and then the other to fully examine the Pepto Bismal spill all over his feet. "Eh why don't you keep your favorite color to yourself, Stern?!" he yelled toward the kid angrily. Because obviously, who else would bother annoying Fletcher like this?
He would get the kid back. Oh yes he would. 
Arithmancy...mazes...all things Lexi was really interested in and wanting to reply to, but...
three mischievous little boys were currently playing a game of 'hit one another upside the head with objects'---
in her classroom. In her
classroom!
"Misters Salander, Fletcher, and Stern! That'll be enough of this nonsense right now!" she said.
"I'm not sure who--or how--or why--this whole thing started, but you'll end it right now." She glanced toward Fletcher and added,
"Or else you'll find yourself serving a detention which will likely be held right in the middle of important school events."
With a not-so-amused look on her face, she waved her wand, tapped it in mid-air, and caused a slight
thump on the back of Fletcher's head...despite the fact that she was all the way across the room. She paused then added,
"...and those are such pretty pink cowboy boots, Mr. Fletcher," she said, making a point of pointing out the color to all in the room who could hear her.
"The color looks sparkling on you, I must say. Where did you find such a pretty pink pair?" Quote:

"Wingardium Leviosa, Wingardium Leviosa, Wingardium Leviosa." She whispered to herself at first, to try and make sure her pronunciation was straight, especially since she'd heard the Professor say that objects could explode if you mispronounce this charm. She watched carefully the other students to study their swish and flick movement, then finally, when she'd built up the pluck she aimed and fired at a wrist watch. "Wingardium Leviosa!"
But, nothing happened except for the toppling of her lavender cowgirl hat. She was doing it wrong, she knew, even if she wasn't sure how. That, and the fact that she was using her older sisters one-time temporary replacement wand.
With half her attention still on the three mischievous little boys, Lexi glanced down at a little first year Slytherin who was trying desperately to levitate something from a nearby box.
"It's much easier if you pull the item from the box with your hands first," she said. She reached in and plucked out an...object...which resembled either a three-headed pig or a badly-sculpted tree. One could just never tell. Lexi turned and pointed out the directions on the board.
1. Levitate using a swish and flick of the wand plus Wingardium Leviosa.
2. Fix your object in place by pointing your wand at it and saying Fixate.
3. Move your object around the room by saying Locomotor ___ (insert object in blanks) and guiding it with your wand. "Now then. Work on those step by step, and I'll stand nearby if you have any trouble," she said.
"Quickly finish levitating your light, medium, and heavy objects," she said, addressing the class as a whole.
"We'll be moving on soon!"
