In the corner of the Slytherin Common Room stands a tall cork bulletin board. Any parchment that touched the cork is magically affixed on it by the self sticking charm it posesses. Here is where you may post class announcements, homework or anything else you think the great house of Salazar Slytherin would do well knowing. And remember...
We're Slytherin, told it's a sin
A House no-one worthwhile's in.
What dung, what rot, what utter tripe
A rather silly stereotype.
Slytherin's for those with brains--
Yet not ashamed to work for gain
Slytherin's for those quite brave
But not to the point of an early grave.
One learns quick and well in Slytherin
How to thrive and how to win.
We're clever, ambitious and maybe mean--
But hey, we get to dress in green.
Cross us and get curse-whacked
A snake never gets side-tracked
We're Slytherin, it's all the rage
Don't stick us in your 'good kid' cage.
You'll think of us as model tykes
But prone to lies, and quick to bite
Let everyone else mutter and glare
We're Slytherins, so we don't care.
Now let's be frank; Slytherin rules
We're the rebel house, the house of cool
Trust only those who are already in,
Too bad all houses aren't Slytherin.

Arithmancy Lesson Two
What: The next Arithmancy lesson of the term Who: All years are welcome Where: The Arithmancy classroom When: February 12, opening in the evening EST Why: To learn something, of course!
♠ Pick up your labelled Talking Toadstool from where you left it in Greenhouse two, (The Greenhouses thread). Choose a place within the grounds to plant your toadstool, making sure not to plant it too close to another Talking Toadstool planted by other students (at least 5 metres away from). Give it a drop of water before you leave it there to flourish on its own.
ooc: This requires three posts that should be PM'd to me. (Emzily)
One post to pick up your plant, one to plant it, and one to water. (and talk to, if you wish)
Toadstools can be planted in the same thread as other students, as long as it is made clear that there is a distance between them.
Option two:
♠ Write two paragraphs (minimum of four sentences for each paragraph) summarizing the most useful ways to restore unhealthy plants and its importance. Include differences and similarities of methods between the magical world and muggle world. Which do you think is most effective?
Homework is due February 18, at 10.00pm (GMT)
Familiarize yourself with how to submit homework here.
Yeah I broke that mirror, so what? ll NOT backward ll Official Gryfferin ll Lemon's favourite
Charms Homework II
Now that you've gotten a taste of both the charm to make items bigger and the charm to make items smaller, I would like a 12 inch essay with your views on which you think is the more useful of the two spells and why. No matter which side you choose, be sure to provide at least one example.
(12 inches = 3 paragraphs of at least 4 sentences each)
Extra Credit: A drawing of either the spider you kept in the jar or your transfigured little dragons. (This should be done with a photo editing software such as paint/photoshop/gimp and should not be an image taken directly from the internet)
Due: February 26, 2015 @ midnight GMT -5

Arithmancy Homework Two
Quote:
Answer the following:
1. In your own words, tell me what the Major Cycles are.
2. Interpret your Cycle themes you calculated in class. What does this mean for your life?
3. From the class survey, the most frequent First Cycle was a 1, Second Cycle a 4, and Third Cycle an 8. Based solely on this small (likely inadequate) sample size, what is the most common interpretation for a lifetime?
There is no length requirement except that answers should be of sufficient length to properly address the question. This assignment is due on February 27 at 11:59 pm EST. Homework submission guidelines can be found here.

Muggle Studies Homework #2
There are two options for homework this time so please only pick one.

Option B: Design your own surgeon uniform and explain in a paragraph why your design would work better for a surgeon than the scrubs I modeled during class. Feel free to think outside the box!

You may practice with a partner, which will earn you more points, or you may practice on a dummy. Record your duels in the arena log over the next two weeks. When we meet again, I will expect to see progress from you all. The goal of this homework practice is to turn your weaknesses into strengths, or to at least improve them so that you are able to defend yourself against any kind of threat."
To put that in simpler OOC terms...
Select five spells from the list (below) for your character to practice.
SPOILER!!: List of Spells
Spells to Practice - Who Taught It? & Airey's Reactions.
Go to the dueling arena. Duel with a partner (OR a dummy).
You should each have at least 5 posts (one spell per post) to receive full credit. So a full duel with two partners would last for 10 posts; practice on a dummy should take 5 posts.
Record your duel here. Follow Rose's instructions in the first/sticky post of the thread.
You have two and a half weeks to complete this task. I will close the arena log thread on March 20, 2015 at 11:59 EST.
So, you do NOT need to PM anything to anyone on staff (unless you have questions). In that case, we're happy to help!
