First, I would like everyone to step up and report their findings on gruagach sightings. Tell with as much detail as you can.
Second, I would like you to start a chart. Take out a piece of parchment and put these titles on it: Human-like, half-human, fully animal. Then figure out where each of the creatures we have studied so far fit in on this chart. I've included a list on the blackboard.
Care of Magical Creatures Blackboard
List of Creatures Studied So Far
Augurey
Hippocampus
Khamador Serpens
Fairies
Gruagach
I want you to keep track of this list for each new creature you study will be added to it. But for now the creatures should be put under the following columns:
Augurey - Fully-Animal
Hippocampus - Fully-Animal
Khamador Serpens - Fully-Animal
Fairies - Human-Like
Gruagach - Human-Like
That is it for today. Your homework is to research half-human creatures and write one that you would like to study under that column. You are dismissed.

Hello again, everyone. For today's class I would like you to all think back to the trip we took to London. Take out a piece of paper and a pen while we brainstorm.
I will give you two minutes to list every muggle thing you saw in London. When you are finished, please hand them up here (post in the comments).
Thank you. Now I would like you to choose one experience from your trip and to write a report on it. Make it a personal report, like how it felt to be there and what you thought as you were doing it.
There is the bell. Continue on your report and turn it in next week.

Good morning! Today we are going to repeat what we did last class, only with an object of your choice. I expect by the end of the class, everyone will be able to walk well carrying an object with Wingardium Leviosa and to be able to lift something at least half their weight. Begin, and try to not drop anything on another person's head.
All right, there is the bell. You are to practice, practice, and practice! Off you go, then.

Welcome back to Hogwarts, everyone! I hope that you had a wonderful winter break. I thought that I would test your memory on the vocabulary we have learned. For this, I'm going to give you a list of terms and a list of definitions. You must match the two together. To make it extra tricky, I'm going to throw in one extra term and one extra definition that don't match. You will have to tell me which these are!
You have half an hour.
List of Vocabulary Words:
A. Point on the sky directly overhead.
B. Related to the stars. Thus sidereal day, month, period, year: lengths of time intervals specified by motion of some object relative to the stars, as opposed to apparent lengths of those time intervals that will depend on the Earth’s own movements.
C. Path traced out by one object around another
D. Coordinate used to specify the position of a point or direction around (or parallel to) an equator.
E. Angle measured clockwise around the horizon, from 0* towards the north, through 90* to the east, 180* to the south, 270* to the west, and to 360* due north
F. A group of stars that seemed to suggest the shape of some god, person, animal or object. Now a term used to designate a region of the sky. There are 88 constellations.
G. Coordinate used to measure (in degrees) the angular distance of a point or celestial objects above or below an equator.
H. Angular distance of an object north or south of the celestial equator, measured in degrees. Thus the north celestial pole has a declination of +90 degrees.
Half an hour is now up! Please bring me your papers and then go outside. I want you to try to name all the constellations you can find out there. Write down a list and bring it back to me before going off to bed. Good night!
