As this is not a Magical Creatures lesson, we'll be discussing the latter. If you look carefully at the phone, you'll notice that there are numbers on it. Does anyone know how these numbers work?" At least one of these students had to have some connection to muggles, right?

Vashti wished she knew what the reason for having class on the kitchen level was because it was really distracting her from what was going on in class. So many yummy smells coming from what was surely yummy food... Gah! She was so lucky she was a Muggle-born and therefore already knew all these Muggle-related things. She'd have to borrow some students' notes otherwise.

Maybe if she forced herself to focus and answer some of these questions, the smells wouldn't distract her so much. She needed to earn some more house points anyway. So she raised her hand. "Well, depending on the phone, you either push the buttons or put your finger in the holes and turn the wheel to dial the numbers to call another person, using whatever phone number they were given," she explained. "A phone number is basically just a bunch of random numbers that were assigned to a person's cell phone - if they have one - or to all the home phones in their house." Quite simple really. More efficient than using owls and writing letters, in her opinion.
