Rules

While I want this course to be fun for you, there are rules you must follow. These are for your benefit.

1)  No food or drink in the classroom. If something we to be spilled while we are doing practical lessons someone could fall and get hurt.

2)  Be respectful.

3)  No cheating. It will not be tolerated. You will receive a 1% and a detention.

4)  Study.

Those are the rules and the guidelines for Professor Silver's class.

You will also be learning the Wand-Lighting spell and the Wand-Extinguishing spell.

You will be asked to complete an introduction about yourself, and multiple DADA subjects.

My suggestions for you are to pay attention to everything so you will be prepared for any quiz.

Take notes and when writing your introduction be sure to develop your ideas.

In example writing "I want to learn about Boggarts because they're cool" is a lot different than "I would like to learn about Boggarts because they are very interesting creatures that I would like to be able to control".

Good luck!
