Default Transfiguration Lesson: TBA

It's a Monday afternoon in mid-December, the last Monday before the winter holiday to be exact. But don't let the upcoming break distract you! You still have classes to get through, and you'll need all your concentration for today's transfiguration lesson.

In stark contrast to the cold, dreary weather outside, the classroom is warm and brightly lit. The first thing students will notice upon entering the classroom is the absence of desks. In their place are several mats neatly arranged in rows in the middle of the room. Two glass walls run along the left and right sides of the room, creating a pocket between the glass and the classroom walls. A new decor choice or something to do with the lesson? Only time will tell.

Professor Carton stands at the front of the room, waiting for the students. Those who are observant will notice that he's standing in front of a door. Should you venture close enough to test the handle, you'll find it locked. "Good afternoon," he greets the arrivals. “Come in and take a seat on the mats.”

OOC: Welcome to transfiguration! Please keep in mind that your student would have had classes with Professor Carton since the beginning of the term IC. Class will begin in 18 -24 HOURS has started.

Lesson Progression:
Q1: how might you use transfiguration to blunt a sharp object?
Main Activity
Prompts #1
Prompst #2
Prompts #3
Q2: how did you do on the activity? Which knives were easy/difficult to transform? What challenges would a moving target present?

Yay, it worked! It wasn't a fancy paper airplane, but Jo was proud of what she achieved. She picked up what used to be a knife and smoothed out the creases on the paper. She could not remember if Professor Carton had instructed them to bring back their work, but if she did not have to hand it in then this paper airplane was most certainly going into Jocelyn Bryce's Portfolio of Magic.

With more confidence in her spell work, the Slytherin was about to head to the left to transfigure more knives propped against a tree when she heard that time was up. She went back to the classroom, sighing in disappointment. Still, she did have progress to reflect on, and she added thoughts to her notebook before raising her hand (the one that was holding the paper airplane). "I didn't get to practice the spell on lots of knives, but I'm guessing smaller ones with simple designs would be easier to transfigure. Swords, for example, would be more difficult."

Honestly, Alfred was still musing over how a paper plane could be considered less dangerous than a knife. Aimed just right, a paper plane could take out an eye or at least scratch one's cornea. Not that he had any experience in this area or anything. But note that he'd much rather have someone coming after him with a butter knife than a paper plane. Also note he said butter knife. Others were much much more dangerous.

He filed back into the classroom with the others, tossing a butter knife into the air and catching it, and retook his seat placing his feet on the desk with legs crossed at the ankles. "Something like this," he started, holding up the butter knife after another successful catch, "is much easier to transfigure than anything sharper would be. Like, say, those swords and things they used in ancient Rome. And anything moving, like say," he quickly transfigured the butter knife into a paper plane using "Scarpafors!" and threw it in a random direction, "that plane would be even harder because it could move or be moved out of the way of your aim."

She hurried over to the counter, even though she was certain she'd searched it pretty thoroughly before, but still didn't see anything. But...wait just a minute--what was that behind the dish drainer? Yes! It was the missing knife! Violet rushed over to where she'd left the other seven former knives, now paper airplanes, laid the eighth knife next to them, and, one quick Scarpifors!, Violet was able to leave the practice rooms feeling much better now. She rushed out the door and back to the classroom, hoping the delay hadn't made her too late.

And I would think a moving target would be very difficult--you'd not only have to cast the spell correctly, but you'd have to time it just right in order to hit the target."

As Norman’s blue-green eyes scanned the room, he spotted Bryce’s hand in the air. Her answer earned an approving nod. “Excellent guess, Miss Bryce,” he replied. “Size and complexity of design are both factors in determining the difficulty of a transfiguration.”

Norman had to fight the urge to facepalm at Devereaux’s antics. Kids these days! Just when he thought they had enough common sense to not need everything spelled out for them, something like this happened to remind him otherwise. Note to self: next time, tell the kids not to take anything out of the practice area. He was silent for a moment, deciding the best way to handle the situation. He strongly suspected this one would mouth off at a detention or points loss, especially when he revealed what the next activity would be, and he was 100% not in the mood to argue with a student today.

For now, he’d go with the friendly reminder approach. “I’ll let it slide this one time because you provided an example of a moving target,” he said, “but for future reference, please don’t throw things in the classroom.” That was the only warning he’d give! “Anyway, good points, Mr. Devereaux.”

Norman was about to draw his wand to vanish Devereaux’s paper airplane when Anders caught it. Okay, problem solved. He listened carefully to his answers, nodding along in places. Another one to mention size. That was unsurprising; it was the second part of the answer that caught his attention. “Very good, Mr. Anders,” he said. “Yes, bad aim can be a problem when hitting a moving target.”

And I would think a moving target would be very difficult--you'd not only have to cast the spell correctly, but you'd have to time it just right in order to hit the target."
Now here was a point of view that Norman hadn’t considered! Blackthorne’s answer got a slight smile. “Interesting observation, Miss Blackthorne!” he replied. “And yes, objects with a larger mass are harder to transfigure.” Finally someone mentioned timing! He was wondering when that would come up. “Correct. Timing is very important when hitting a moving target.”


When he saw no more hands in the air, Norman addressed the class once more, “Good answers! While there are a few other general factors to consider when determining the difficulty of transfiguring an object, such as concentration, wand power, and the viciousness of the object in question, you’ve hit the nail on the head. In the case of these knives, the most important ones to consider are size - or mass - and complexity of design.”

HIs eyes searched the room for any signs of confusion so far. Everyone got that? Good! Moving on… “As for hitting a moving target, one’s aim and timing are important. Another factor -” one that hadn’t been mentioned. “- is distance. The farther your spell has to travel, the harder it is to hit your target. So you have to ask yourself, do you stand close to your target and risk being hit? Do you stand farther back and risk the spell not hitting its mark? It’s a trade-off… a trade-off that you’ll get to see for yourself momentarily.”

With a flick of his wand, Norman revealed a row of wooden dummies at the back of the room, which had previously been hidden by a disillusionment charm. Another flick revealed a box at his feet. He reached into the box and pulled out a knife, a blunt plastic butter knife. “Your task is to guard the dummies from these knives…” he held up one to demonstrate. “These knives will be flying at the dummies; you’ll stop them by transforming them into paper airplanes. They’re not sharp enough to cause damage, so they’ll just bounce off if they hit. Still, not something you’d want to be hit with, so you’ll be practicing from behind the walls at the left and right sides of the room.” He gestured toward the nearest glass wall.

“These walls are made of magically reinforced glass,” he continued. “Spells can pass from the inside, but no spells or objects can penetrate from the outside.” Just to prove his point, he poked at the glass with the plastic knife in his hand. Unsurprisingly, nothing happened. “DO NOT step outside the glass walls until the activity ends! If you do, there will be consequences.” That should go without saying, but one could never tell with some of these kids!

“Go ahead and take your places behind the glass. It doesn’t matter which side; this isn’t a competition.” He paused for a few minutes to allow time for the students to get where they were going. Only when he was sure that every student was safely behind the walls did he say, “You have the rest of class, starting NOW!”

And with a wave of his wand, plastic knives began to levitate out of the box and toward the dummies.

OOC: Thank you for sticking with me! We’ve reached the mini activity. Your character needs to use Scarpafors to stop as many knives as possible from hitting the dummies. You ARE allowed to rp the outcomes of your spells this time. As Norman said, the knives are blunt and plastic, so there should be no rping of any injuries! Your character must stay behind the glass walls at the sides of the room unless you want IC consequences for rule-breaking. You don’t need to title your post with which side, but please include the number of knives your character has hit. You’ll have ABOUT 48 HOURS for this activity.

Yes, Jude understood that all quite clearly, professor. He turned the plane over in his hands while he continued to listen to Carton. He was super interested in this tradeoff being spoken of. He supposed that will be happening in the form of a second activity.

Yep. He was right.

Jude set the plane down and surveyed the dummies with continued interest. Protect the dummies. Got it. Also, they now knew what that glass wall was to be used for. It seemed like a lot of information to remember and the fifth year thought he memorised them as best as he could. For that reason, he headed off for the glass wall - the left side because he favoured his left hand.

His wand was ready even before the knives were out of the box. But then they were and started moving towards the dummies. Almost immediately, Jude had zoned in on one of the knives which was traveling at a moderate speed. The boy watched it zoom closer, the incantation on the tip of his tongue. The intention was to have the knife come closer so that there was less chance of missing. “Scarpafors!” Jude called out the incantation and flicked his wand when the knife as just about halfway to the dummy.

And his gamble paid off! One butter knife turned plane!

Hitting a moving target sounded super difficult, especially since Jo still struggled with transfiguring stationary objects. She thought that the best way for a first year like her to handle a flying knife would simply be: to duck. In the following tasks however, knives would be flying at dummies and not them, the students, so she felt much safer. Soon after she moved to take up a place behind the glass, plastic knives began to levitate toward the poor dummies. She raised her wand and ... realised that she had not come up with a strategy. So she flicked her wand quickly at whichever knife she could aim at, accompanying each flick with, "Scarpafors! Scarpafors! Scarpafors!"

The third time was the charm (transfiguration). Or at least, she had hit the target. Jo watched as the blunt plastic knife began its transformation into a crinkly paper airplane, then stopped halfway through, just like her first attempt in the backyard.

The knife-plane continued its journey, and bounced off a dummy's forehead. Ouch. Sorry, dummy!

~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.

There wasn’t any time to actually celebrate this win. Nope. There were far too many knives coming towards the glass and there were actually two that were zooming towards the dummy Jude had been working to save from any injury. Would it be wise to wait until they were close enough as he had done with the first knife? The Hufflepuff didn’t think so.

“Scarpafors.” The wand was flicked, intended for the knife slightly ahead of the other. But things were happening too quickly and his spell hit the second knife. What went even more wrong was the fact that the plane was without a wing. Gosh. Talk about a silly looking plane.

Flustered, Jude hurried to stop the other knife, which was now incredibly close to the dummy. “Scarpafors.” Flick and a miss. The knife hit the dummy with a tiny thud.

Sorry, dummy pal!

Ugh. Violet had gotten rather good at the new transfiguration spell, but found she was much less good at hitting moving objects. After her first miss, she opted to cast as many spells as possible versus waiting to aim at a particular one--she figured she had a better chance of beating the odds that way. But so far she had only managed to transfigure 3 out of 8 knives (and one of those hadn't even been heading toward the dummy she was protecting). "Bother!" she said to herself, as she aimed again, and actually hit the knife, though she admitted it had probably been by accident than by aim.

~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.

Was it just him or were the knives coming in very quick succession now? Must be him… “Scarpafors.” Flick. Yes! Another plane; this one at least had two wings and looked proper. There wasn’t time to do much celebrating, of course, since knives were flying left, right and center. Still, Jude found himself rather enjoying the activity. It clearly took his mind off of all the things that were bothering him.

“Scarpafors.” This particular butter knife came ridiculously close to the dummy; it had literally been inches away from the dummy’s face. A quick flick sent it transforming into a plane - another perfect one. “Scarpafors.” This time, the Hufflepuff tried for one that was a much bigger distance away but like before, he had a difficult time with that distance. He missed the knife altogether which caused it to smash into the dummy.

The fifth year imagined the poor dummy was not at all happy.

Default That's a wrap! ^_^
Rhibear ~ Madam Solo ~ Dark Brooding Girl ~ Accio Jedi ~ Gryffinclaw ~ Just a doll

Norman continued guiding the plastic knives with his wand, watching as they flew in a straight line from the box to the dummies at the back. Although his eyes remained locked on their course the whole time, he was very much aware of everything going on behind the glass walls. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Anders and Blackthorne making excellent progress with their spellwork. If his count was correct, they each had four apiece.

It looked like Bryce was doing a good job as well. A half-transformation was better than none at all. Not a bad start at all! Each of the three students got an approving nod, though he refrained from verbal praise for the time being so as not to break their concentration… or his own.

Momentarily looking away from the knives just long enough to check his watch, he saw that class time was winding down. “And that’s time! Good work, everyone!” he called. The knives stopped flying, dropping where they were, and a flick of his wand summoned all of the untransfigured knives back into the box. Although the knives were essentially harmless, he didn’t want the students to get any ideas about smuggling them out of the classroom. “You may come out from behind the walls now and collect your things.”

He waited a few minutes for the students to emerge before giving the homework assignment, “Your homework: practice Scarpafors on two different types of knives around the school. Class dismissed!”
