james wrote down all the charms and their wand movement. Before he started to practice with them. The summoning and bannishing charms were very easy for james. The Levitation and silencing charms were a bit harder for james, since he has not performed them since the last school term.

Rosa quickly wrote down everything that was on the blackboard and then grabbed her wand. she put the parchment and ink back in her bag and put her quill un the table. she'd practiced this before, so she should be able to do it.. she raised her wand, swished it and flicked it and said 'wingardium leviosa!' one corner of the quill came up, but then it fell down again and all that happened was that it rolled over. 'wingardium leviosa!' rosa said again. this time the quill went up a few inches before it fell down again. this was going ok... she decided to continue with accio. she put her quill at the end of her desk and said 'afficcio!' but nothing happened. hadn't she practiced this before. she should be able to now... 'afficio!' she repeated. 'afficio!' the third time she tried, her quill flew up and landed on the floor in front of her desk. 'accio!' she said. her quill stroke the top of her desk and fell to the floor again. 'wingardium leviosa!' rosa said, and she reached for the quill as soon as it raised over her desk. maybe she was really getting the hang of this...

Harry is nocking on the door softly,then enter.he's searcing for an empty sit,and sit on it.then he sais "I'm realy,realy sorry I late proffesor!" then he took out fron his bag all the stuff and start wrightning everything that was on the blackboard.

Lee smiled at the simplicity of the spells. He quickly noted down the spells on a piece of parchment in orange ink, for future reference. He tucked it neatly in his charms textbook.

Feeling ready he stood up and removed his wand from behind his ear, which it was resting upon. He took Zulu, who was resting on his shoulder, and neatly placed her on the desk so that she was disturbed when he was performing his wand movements.

He looked down onto his parchment to see that he would be practising the levitation charm first. He coughed slightly to remove any chance of an unclear incantation and then swished and flicked his wand, pronouncing "Wingardium Leviosa". He watched as the baby blue spell relinquished once it made contact with a nearby book. As he had hoped the book began to sway in mid air quite elegantly.

Quite proud and certain of himself now he was ready to try his next spell. Summoning and Banishing charms were generally easy depending on the size of the object in need of summoning or banishing. He levitated the book onto the desk which was an aisle away and rested it there. Concentrating his thoughts on allowing the book to come towards him, he flicked his wand towards the object and followed this with the incantation "Accio Book!", just like he had done before with the levitation charm. The book happily transported itself from the desk to Lee's free hand.

Staring at the book once more he concentrated on sending it back from where it once came. He repeated the wand movements but followed this with a different incantation "Afficio Book!". Surely enough the book transported itself back.

Lee manually retrieved the book back to his own desk and was ready to perform the next spell. This one was more advanced than the other three, but he had had a years practise with all three of them, so there was no excuse on failing the use of one of them.

Taking one of the annoying talking parrots from the teachers desk, he placed it on his own. He cleared his mind and took deep breaths to help keep it clear, he then tried to block the sound the parrot was producing from his mind. Thinking he was ready to give it a shot he kept his concentration and jabbed his wand at the object, this time the following incantation was "Silencio". Lee closed his eyes at first not wanting to see the result, but once the sound of a yacking parrot and disintegrated he opened them to be revealed to a complete success of a spell.

He tidied his desk completely happy with his work and then wrote a not of his efforts and what he did, since it may come in handy come exam time. He returned his wand behind his ear and his bat upon his shoulder and then rested his head upon his hand awaiting further instructions, homework or dismissal.

Kate watched the boy enter her class extremely late. "That'll be 5 points. Don't let it happen again or it will be 10." She turned from him and continued to patrol the class, watching as people practiced the charms she'd set before them.


OOC: I've made it very clear that you should not announce your lateness. Next time just RP as if you'd been in class the whole time.

Caleb continued to work on his spells. He eally enjoyed the Accio charm. He kept having his book come from his bag, and then back in. "What a great spell for a lazy boy!" he remarked out loud to himself.

After a few more times of trying that, he tried to figure out what he needed to use to try the Silencio charm. His mind and eye immediately went to Adz. Knowing that probably would be frowned upon, he tried to figure something else.

Marnie sat there staring around the class she was really bad at these she had made her birds voice squeak louder than before
''Someone help please'' Marnie shouted

Amy pulled parchment from her bag, dipped her quill in the ink and began scribbling down the notes from the board.

She paused after writing the final word and cleared her throat. One by one, she began practicing the charms she'd learned previously, smiling as she accomplished them.

luna stiffled a chuckle as the late comer sat down,
"wingardium leviosa" she said confidently and her quill floated up and up then fell back down on to the desk
"yes! and ive only tried a few times!"

Ginny writes everything from the board, and attempts the charm. After a while she accomplishes it and smiles proudly.

Christy was quite proud of herself. She had done perfect charms a few time. She was getting professional with the Levitating Charm. Summoning and Banishing charms were turning very easy depending on the size of the object in need of summoning or banishing. She levitated the book onto the desk many times and the quill too. This last one was very easy. Concentrating her thoughts on allowing the book to come towards him, she flicked her wand towards the object and followed this with the "Accio Book!" charm. the book came flying to her.

The Silencing Charm was more difficult. "Silencio" she said as she jab her wand at the little mouse. The mouse become stutterer 'Oh ...I was almost there' After a few more times the incantation became perfect.

Silvie approached the girl shouting for help. "Hi, I'm Silvie" she handed out her hand. "I see that your having a little trouble with the Silencio spell, right? I suppose you are a first year then? But don't worry! I'll help you" "Well, I don't mean to brag, but I'm actually pretty good at this one!". Silvie took out her wand. "Look! Just do this and then this" she said while moving her wand around. "Say the spell loud and clear, and aim at the target holding your wand firmly." Silvie looked at the girl and smiled kindly. "Go ahead! Try!"

Emily was writing the last things in her notebook, When she was finished she decided to give it all a try. She reached in ehr bag for something light she found her spare quill and set it on the desk as took a step backwards and tried the incatation. The book made a feble struggle to move but in the end did not at all. She tried again this time the quill got off the desk an inch and fell abck down.
"Ohh i cant do this"
Even after she said that she tried one more time, this time the quill made it up into the air and a few inches towards her but it fell shortly afterwards. She kept trying and by the time she had done it over a dozen times she was about ready to give up.
'one more try then ill be done' she thought
She tried once more and this time the quill made it all the way to her hand. She was sooo happy she couldnt believe it happwened she had really done it. She smilied around at everyone. She had done the charm and even if it took her forever she was still happy.

Then Emily figured out she was doing the wrong spellshe felt embarassed adn alone but she now new why the animal was sitting in front of her. She tried this charm. It seemed even more difficult than the first now she had to keep her spirits up long enough to get the caharm right. Everytime she tried to make to bird quiet it seemed as though it kept on sqawking even louder. She kept trying although difficult ashe knew she would eventually get it. By her fourth try she had done it. the bird kept opening its mouth but no sound came ut. Again she was so happy she had finally done it. But she hoped no one noticed she was doing to wrong charm. She had finally gotten two charms correct all in one classs period she hwas soo happy.

"Accio." This time, Jenna called the book towards her. She stacked the book with her sketchbook on top.

"Concentrate. Concentrate." Jenna gritted her teeth, muttering to herself.

"Afficio!" The books flew towards the end of the table so fast that they flew off the end and onto the floor. The cover of her already-beat-up sketchbook fell off, and left a few pages askew.

"Accio." The books, cover, and pages flew towards her.

"Reparo." She murmered, blushing at her stupid mistake. The pages reassembled themselves and the cover flew back into place. Ugh, I'm an idiot." She thought angrily to herself. I need to practice more with just the spellbook.

Hastily, she placed her spellbook, alone, into position, and tried banishing it. It worked much smoother than when she first tried it, and could easily reach the end of the table without falling off.

After swiftly noting down the necessary wand motions and incantations and taking a few practice runs (not all of which were too successful), Iphigeneia held out her wand once more, took a ready stance and pointed at a pair of spectacles.

"Accio Spectacles!" she cried out, with a wand flick towards the spectacles. The spectacles zoomed across the table towards her--

Afficio Spectacles!

The spectacles came to a sudden stop and took off in direction it had come from. It launched itself off the table - it was going to shatter on the stone floor...

Wingardium Leviosa!

The spectacles paused in mid-air, and slowly, following the motion of Iphigeneia's wand, it began to sway upwards until it was back on the table were it had been in the beginning...

"Excellent," Iphigeneia murmured. She looked around, then pointed her wand at an unopened ink bottle...

Lacie sat straight to say her spells correct and do them right. She open her notebook to copied the notes that seem important. She was writing as fast as she could.

She cleared her throat, "Wingardium Leviosa" waves her wand at her book, her wand moves like the swish and flick motion, it flies up and then drops on the floor.

"Accio Spellbook" She calls her spellbook from the floor, then, it appears on the desk then flies toward her and it hits her in the stomach. She whispered "Ouch!" with the sharp pain from her stomach.

"Silencio Spellbook" She says the spell and her book flies off the table and hits the floor. She saids "Afficio Spellbook" and easily comes up from the floor but doesn't hit her stomach. "Silencio" She says the spell and gives a blue sparkle around the book.

Amaris placed Booger on the desk and smiled at the lilac pigmy puff. Deciding it was best to use an inanimate object for this charm, Ama decided to use her own hat. She placed that besides Booger and stepped about three feet away from the desk.

"Accio hat," said Amaris eloquently and watched the hat zoom towards her smoothly.

Catching it with her free hand, Amaris opted for the Banishing Charm to get it back to the desk.

"Afficio hat."

The hat landed on top of the desk and skidded almost falling over the other side of it. Amaris tried this combination of Charms before taking a seat. It was time for a little break. Then she would work on the silencing charm.

Heshasa was so excited being a first year she had done her charms nearly perfectly she thought to herself maybe I'll be good at THIS subject.

Ozzy looked up to the black board and sighed. "Accio". He said to himself quietly before grabbing his wand and placing his quill at the far end of his desk. He jabbed his wand at the quill. "Accio quill!" He said a bit too loud for his liking, the quill zoomed towards him and landed neatly in his left hand. He grinned and took some notes before he tried the others.

Pacilla continued to work on getting better at the spells. She had done quite good at leviating her quill, and she was getting close to mastering the summoning charm. "Accio!" She chanted, flicking her her wand towards a book that she had placed on the edge of the desk, she was standing about a foot away from her desk. When she said the words, the book slid across the table and started to fly towards her, but then Pacilla noticed that the book was a bit wobbly and she held her hands out to catch it if it fell, though it didn't and flew right into her arms instead. Hugging the book as she stood back up, she placed it on the desk and tried again.

After she had gotten the charm to work on the book very well, she started to practice the banishing charm. She put a piece of paper on her desk and flicked her wand towards it as she said "Affio-" NO!! It's Affi-CI-o, bad me, bad! She flicked her wand again after clearly saying "Afficio!" The paper slid all the way to the end of the desk and even went a bit over but not all the way. Scratching her head, Pacilla tried a couple more times to get the spell good.

Pacilla looked around the room for something to silence so she could practice the silencing charm. She noticed some birds in a cage up front where some other students had gotten a bird from and took one out and brought it to her table. The little critter was cute but also very loud for such a small little feathery birdy. After looking at the bird for a few seconds, she cleared her throat and said "Silencio." As she said the incantation, she made to jab the bird with her wand but of course did not actually hit it. The bird was still yapping. Pacilla tried practicing with it a few more time until she got it again. Then she put the bird back and practiced the leviation charm again while she was waiting for furthur instruction.

since everyone was beening so "concentrated" on there charms Roxana had to work on her own charm. She finallly did get the hang of it tough.

Martha sighs and picks up her wand. She had learned all of these charms last year. She had been hoping to move on...the Professor had said it was just a review. She pulls out her Standard Book of Spells, Grade 2 and places it on the floor a few feet away from her. She flicks her wand at it and says, "Accio Book!" The book floats smoothely and lands back on her desk. Then Martha tried the banishing charm. Flicking her wand once more at the book, she says, "Afficio Book!" The book moved across the room and landed against the wall, exactly where she had wanted it to land.

Then, Martha decides to practice the levitating charm on her book since it was already across the room. She smiles and confidently swishes and flicks her wand as she says, "Wingardium Leviosa!" The book rose in the air and hovers, as if waiting for her next command. She waves her wand towards her while thinking, "Accio Book!" The book then floats back in her direction and lands on her desk.

Happy that she hadn't forgottten the charms she had learned last year, Martha continues to practice, using a variety of things in the classroom.

Rachel walks into the Charms classroom a little uneasy and says "Hello" to the Charms teacher. She enrolls telling him that she is a 1st year Ravenclaw and hopes to excel well in the class. Rachel smiles and takes her seat.

Spotting Nadia working with her new pygmy puff, Laurasia thought that this was a wonderful idea as well. She pulled a small bundle out of her bag & unwrapped her new tiny lilac colored pygmy puff. Not having a name for it yet, she just called it baby.

"Okay baby, we're going to do a bit a magic now." She set the small creature on a desk & walked a bit away from it. Pulling out her wand, she flicked it towards the animal. "Accio pygmy!" The small creature automatically began to come towards her. Quickly she flicked her wand at the on-coming pygmy & called out "Afficio!" Suddenly the pygmy reversed directions & landed back on top of the desk that it had started from.

Smiling Laurasia walked back to the small creature. "Okay, heres another one baby..." She did the appropriate wand motion & called out "Wingardium Leviosa!" the pygmy immediately started to rise. "Woah!" Laurasia called out, as the animal began to climb too high. "Finitae Incantatum!" When the animals dropped, she caught him deftly in her hand.

Okay, one more sweety. Mum needs you to hum a bit. Can you hum for mum?" She gently stroked the pygmy's soft fur & it began to hum softly. "Good." She jabbed her wand towards the pygmy. "Silencio!" Suddenly there was no longer any noise coming from the small animal. Laurasia smiled. "Finitae Incantatum." Just as quickly the humming returned. Laurasia picked up the baby pygmy & stroked him for a few minutes before returning him to his wrappings & her bag.
