Hello class. If you remember, last time we were beginning to learn about the Curse of the Bogies. I had you research a demonic creature so that you would have a better understanding of what we were about to study. Hopefully you still remember the results of your research.
The Curse of the Bogies causes a certain demon to become highly attracted to the person the curse was cast upon. The effects can be very nasty because once the demon has been attached to a person it will then attack that person relentlessly using whatever powers it has. Generally the person is not prepared to defend him or her self and succumbs to the demon quickly. You can not be picky about which demon will answer the Curse of the Bogies. It will be a native of the area, generally, but other than that there is no way of knowing. No one knows exactly why this curse will attach a demon to a person. Most theories involve a spell attaching to the victim. The spell seems to have a promise of easy meat. Not all demonic creatures will answer the call. The more intelligent ones will ignore it, or as some people think, not hear it at all. This is a bit unlikely (creating a spell that only stupid demons can sense), but possible perhaps.
I hope that you got that all down in your notes. Your homework is to write a paragraph on your own theory on how the Curse of the Bogies. Make sure that it is convincing! Class is dismissed.

Today you will be continuing to try to turn a beetle into a button. Now, can all of you remember the spell? How about you there in the back row? No, not scaraga. ScaraBYga. Make sure to pronounce the whole correct spell. Now if you would each take one of these beetles... You may begin. I hope that at least one of you will have transformed a beetle into a button by the end of the class.
I am going to come around now and collect your beetles. Five points will be given to each student who turns in a button instead. After I take your beetle - or button - you are free to go. I want you to practice over the weekend so that when you return on Tuesday we can move onto turning a button into a beetle.

Today we will continue to study the personality traits, moving onto 5 and 6.
Five is the number of instability and imbalance. Fives are prone to change and will frequently commit to many projects and do none. They are energetic, adventurous, and very willing to take risks to achieve their goals. They do not remain in one place long, instead preferring a more nomadic life of wandering and travel.
The downside of fives is that they can be conceited, irresponsible, quick-tempered, and flighty.
Sixes are the opposite. They are reliable, loyal, and keep their friends. They are family oriented and do well in the arts, but have a lousy business sense. They can be prone to gossiping and laziness.
Six is considered one of the most auspicious numbers of arthimancy. If you add 1+2+3 you get 6 and if you multiply 1x2x3 you will also get six.
All right. Put your quills away. Your homework is to study the numbers we have learned so far. Class is dismissed.

We will, again, study the Art of Pyromancy. In the center of each table there is a bowl filled with fire. You will each find place at your right hand a bowl of herbs, namely betony, plantain, nettles, and thyme. These you will use to divine. I shall guide you in the conducting of the ritual. Would everyone please stand? Thank you. Now hold your bowl of herbs in your wand hand and hold your other hand up in front of your chest, palm forward. Good. When I say begin, everyone shall walk evenly around your table, staring at the back of the person in front of them. Walk until I say stop, then sit on the nearest chair. Ready? Begin.
Stop! Everyone sit down. Now we will stare into the flames for three minutes, pondering the future.
Three minutes are up. Now I would like everyone on the North side of the table to take a handful of their herbs and toss them into the flames. Good. Now everyone on the South... the East... and finally the West. For the next step, I would like everyone to sit back. I am going to extinguish the flames. There!
Carefully, for the bowls may still be hot, pass the bowl around for everyone at the table to study the herbs. I wish for you to write down your observations and what you see.
Class is over now. Please put everything away. I know you will have a wonderful holiday and I hope to see you next year. Good bye and good luck!

Hello class. First, I would like to read aloud the letter I received from our werewolf corrospondent.
Dear First Year Hogwarts Students,
Thank you for your interest in werewolves and lycanthropy. I hope to answer some of your questions to promote greater understanding of werewolves. Your questions and my answers are listed below.
What is the most common question you are asked when people learn you are a werewolf? Probably the most common question I'm asked is not asked directly, but I can tell people wish to know 'Are you just suddenly going to turn and bite me?' or 'Am I putting myself in danger standing this close to you?' The answer is a very definite NO to both questions. I always try to stay in a place where I can do no harm during the full moon and at all other times, I am a normal human being. In one instance, a human with lycanthropy became very fond of being a werewolf, so he mutated to be constantly half wolf and half human. When he bit people during another part of the moon cycle, he did cause the victim to become more wolfish, but not a true werewolf.
Is transforming painful? Yes. Anytime that your body mutates, it is generally accompanied by great pain.
If I met a werewolf in the human state, would I be able to tell his condition? In most cases, no.
Are there female werewolves as well as male? Yes, both boys and girls, men and women can become werewolves if bitten.
Can animals become werewolves? No one is quite sure of this answer. There have been reports of wereanimals, but this may have been caused by a spell instead of a bite.
Thank you for your questions. I hope that I have provided satisfactory answers and I welcome more quesitons.
Yours truly,
A. Werewolf
Of course, his name isn't A. Werewolf but he wishes to remain anonymous. Now, if any of those questions were yours, please take out a quill and parchment and write a short bit about if that answered your question and if the answer was what you expected. If none of your questions were chosen, choose one of the questions to write about and tell if the answer was what you expected.
Time is up class. Please turn in your papers. Your homework is to write a thank you letter and get it to me before you leave for break. Have a wonderful safe winter break!

Before you head off to vacation, I thought I would give you a bit more to think about. Please take out a quill and parchment to take notes.
Every number has a meaning and a personality that goes with it. By knowing someone's name, you can figure their number and from there, their personality. I will be teaching you the meanings that go with people's numbers
One
Keywords: Leader, Loner, Independent, Focused, and Determined
Ones set goals and stick to them. They are leaders and inventors.
They don't like working with others and often refuse to take orders.
Frequent bad traits of the one are being self-centered, egotistical, and domineering
Two
Keywords: Interaction, Creative, Harmony, Loyal, Fair, and Balanced
Twos represent equality, two way communication, co-operation, and harmony
They also represent conflicts, opposing forces, and contrast: day and night, good and evil
Bad trait of the two include being withdrawn, moody, self-conscious, and indecisive.
Does everyone have that? Good. Please think of someone you know whose name boils down to one or two. Your homework is to write about how this does or doesn't describe them. Class is dismissed and happy holidays!

I promised you last class that we would be finished with the wood charm. Correct. However, today I wish to be absolutely sure that you have completed the match to needle charm, and back. So everyone standing on that half of the room, please come stand on this side of my desk. Line up neatly and no shoving. Everyone will get their turn. Now everyone on that side of the room, come stand on this side of my desk. Good. Now here is what we are going to do. You on the right, you are going to turn this match into a needle and give it to the person on your left and then go to the back of the line. You on the left, you will turn it back to a match, give it to the next person in the line on the right and go to the end of your line. This will go on until we reach the end of the line. You may begin.
Well done. We are now back at the beginning, so I would like the two lines to switch. Those on the left will now turn the match to a needle, and those on the right will turn the needle to a match.
That exercise has been completed now, so please return to your seats. You have no homework over the holiday break, however everyone who is going home, I will remind you that you may not do any spells! I repeat: NO MAGIC OVER THE HOLIDAY! Got that? Good. Class is dismissed and I will see you next year.

Before your brains go into break mode, I would like you to learn two more runes: Hagalaz and Jera. Quills and parchment out and please copy what is on the blackboard.
Jera
Harvest
Use to create positive, lasting change.
If found in a reading, it means that a project is going well and success comes to those who wait for it. Do not rush your project and all will be well.
If found reversed in a reading, it means that you are wandering aimlessly in a project, you need to set deadlines and goals.
Hagalaz
Also known as: Hagal
Delays, Upheaval, Risks
Can be used to turn someone's past against them
If you draw this rune, expect a great upheaval in your life. It may be good, however. It may an awakening to greater knowledge or a great idea. Be prepared, though, that this will not be an easy time for you.
There you have them! Quills down, then, and parchments away. Your homework is to simply review all the runes you have learnt so far and to try to not forget the Runic Alphabet over winter break. Class is dismissed for the year.

First, we are going to continue the same spell as a few classes before. Yes, I do know that you are all tired of it, but you have to master it! Paper out and begin. I'll check your work in about, say, half an hour.
Wands down please. I would like all eyes on me. I believe that as a reward for all your hard work, you can all learn the counter charm to this spell. It will only work if your paper is fully wood-like. Without wands first repeat after me. Sillacharus. Louder! Sillacharus! Good. Wands out and toward your wood. I want you to try your hardest, of course, but I don't expect most of you to get it for a another few classes. You have fifteen minutes.
Fifteen minutes are up. Wands away please. Your homework is to take your wood with you and try to turn it into paper. Thats all. Class is dismissed until Tuesday.

Today we will be studying another rune that is most commonly called Dagaz. Here is the summory of Dagaz:
Dagaz is also known as Daeg. If it is drawn in a runic reading, then generally the person is feeling the need to be invisble. If it is draw reverse, then the person is feeling the need to be less invisble. You can use this rune as a way to travel unnoticed. Oddly enough, this rune has the main meaning breakthrough.
Have you finished writing your notes? Well, then, here is the next one, Uruz.
Uruz is also known as Ur. It stands for strength, determinations, perservance, courage, health, and assertivness. It is a rune that should be used in all healings. When drawn in a reading, the person who is being read for should be prepared for opportunity disguised as loss. If drawn in reverse, the person being read for should look deep with in themselves to see if they have been missing these opportunities in the set backs.
Once you finish on this one, I want you to get your notes on Mannaz as well. Pretend that you have drawn Mannaz, Dagaz, and Uruz for the past, present, and future. Write a report telling me how you would plan for the future and how you would interpret it.
It is ten minutes until your next class. Please put your quills away. If you have completed your report, please hand it up. If you haven't, finish it for homework. Off you go!

Today we are going to continue our discussion on werewolves. We will be learning the distinguishing characteristics of the said beast. Please get out your quills and paper. The three main points to remember when distinguishing a werewolf from an ordinary wolf is to check three parts: the pupils of the eyes, the snout, and the tail. Highlight on your paper: Pupils, Snout, Eyes. Now for explanations of each.
If you ever have looked at a cat's eyes in bright light, you will see that the pupils are slits instead of rounds. If you look at a human's eyes at any light, the pupils will remain round. A werewolf always has slit pupils when in the transformed state, whether it is light or dark.
A wolf has a long, thin, pointed snout with a black nose. A werewolf, on the other hand, has a pigmentless nose with a long, thick pointed snout. The eyes are also slightly pigmentless and the eye rims are pure pink.
A wolf's tail is quite even all the way through, where as the werewolf has a remarkably thin tail that ends in a tuft not unlike a lions.
These are the characteristics that are the easiest to distinguish. There are body structrual traits as well, like bones that are in different places, but you must see the skeleton for that.
For homework, I would like you to research a picture of a wolf and draw your own. Then, from what I have just told you, create a drawing of a werewolf. That is due on Tuesday. Class is dismissed.

Today we are going to continue our discussion on werewolves. We will be learning the distinguishing characteristics of the said beast. Please get out your quills and paper. The three main points to remember when distinguishing a werewolf from an ordinary wolf is to check three parts: the pupils of the eyes, the snout, and the tail.

Wands out, please. I need you to prove that each of you can do the spells to turn a needle into a match and back. Please take your match and wand and line up in front of my desk. You will have three tries for it to count. Three at a time.
You all passed well enough, however those of you who didn't get it on the second try will need to practice tonight as well as the homework that I will give you at the end of class.
Now you will be learning a new spell. Since it is your second spell, it is another easy one. You will be turning paper into wood. I don't expect any of you will be managing more then cardboard, but you need to start somewhere. Please take out a sheet of paper, not parchment. The spell is ortinalis. You may begin. I will tell you when class is over. It will be in about half an hour.
Paper away please. If any of your sheets are too heavy and wood like, please bring them up to me and I will restore them to their original state. Your homework is to practice. But please remember to use paper. Parchment is not pleasant when this spell is used on it. Also, I would like you to think of a spell that you would like to learn. Class is dismissed.

Today is the day the you will learn the last eight. Please take out your copy of the runic alphabet and consentrate on the last eight runes, writing things with them, trying to remember them. At first, use your sheet, then try without. Once you feel that you have them down pretty well, you can use the whole alphabet.
Your attention please! It is now time for you to translate this class's translation. You have about half an hour. Once the whole scroll is translated, please follow the instructions on it. Try without looking at your sheet unless you really need to.
Half an hour is up. Please pull away your quills and turn towards me. Your homework will be to write me a letter in runic without looking at your sheet. I will be able to decipher your letter, never fear. Class, you are dismissed.

Since we have now covered vampires, I think that I want you to study werewolves next. I do not know how much each of you knows about werewolves, so I will start at the beginning.
A werewolf is a human that is forced to change into a blood thirsty wolf at every full moon. Most people do not wish such a transformation and consider it shameful and something to be hidden. It is true that most werewolves have a harder time getting jobs because people are afraid that they may be bitten by their employees.
Werewolves are only as dangerous as any other human on any other day than the full moon. Once the light of the full moon falls on them, then they become a full fledged monster.
Lycanthropy, the term for the condition of being a werewolf, is contagious through bites and occationally heritage. If you are bitten on any other day than the full moon, however, you may become a bit wolfish, but not be a fully fledged werewolf.
Please put away your notes. Your homework is to read about the werewolf in a copy of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and read this link about werewolves. Also, copy out the definition of werewolf and lycanthropy from a dictionary. Class is dismissed.

Good Day, everyone. Today you will be finding different things that are compatible with you. For example, my number is eight, thus I should eat coffee, water, and ham.
It will be best if you keep a sheet with things that are compatible. Take out a piece of parchment and number it from 1 to 9. Do the same for two more sheets. You may also want to take out you chart.
I want you to find a food, animal and emotion that is compatible with your number. You may now start calculating.
I know that we only have twenty minutes left, but I will pass out arithmancy calculators. With these, you enter what you are trying to calculate, then add the three numbers together.
Put away your quills and ink now. Your Homework is to find something that is compatible with each number. Class is dimissed
