"Thank you for your comment, Mr. Weasley." Professor McGonagall said with a sullen face. "I didn't expect that 4 people would be late on the first day of school. This is more than in previous school years."
"Maybe I should make something useful and turn you, Potter, Mike, and Justin into alarm clocks. That way at least you won't all be late! Maybe?"
"Okay, quickly find a seat and sit down!"
After reprimanding several people, Professor McGonagall faced the students and said
"Transfiguration is the most complex and dangerous magic you will learn at Hogwarts."
"If anyone is naughty in my class, I will ask him to leave and never come in again!"
Professor Mai walked back and forth in front of his desk, "Now, let me demonstrate for you."
She pulled out her wand and pointed at the desk, and the desk instantly turned into a pig. Before the beast could even hum a few words, it was transformed back again.
The miraculous means are more convincing than any gorgeous rhetoric. Just a simple demonstration completely conquered the students. But they soon understood that it would take a long time to turn the furniture into animals. At present, they have to
First try to turn the match in front of you into a needle.
"animagi" As Betty chanted the curse softly, the match in front of her turned into a pin.
"Damn! It's so easy." Mike next to him exclaimed, but his matches remained unchanged. This is also the state of most people, there is basically no change.
"Ivy, aren't you very good at transfiguration?" said Harry, who was sitting behind him on his right.
Ivey glanced at him, and without taking the wand, "animagi" the match in front of him turned into a wooden needle.
"Forehead--"
It was not until the end of class that Hermione made some changes appear on the match. Only Betty was the one who really completed the transformation. Although she was not a student of her own college, Professor McGonagall still did not hesitate to praise it.
The second class was Defense Against the Dark Arts. It was originally the most anticipated class for all the little wizards, but it became a joke. Professor Qiluo couldn't even speak smoothly, let alone the smell of garlic all over his body. Everyone said that he used to
He was scared to death by vampires, so he always carried garlic to prevent vampires from finding him.
From this, we can see that Professor Quirrell is indeed disguised well. He has successfully established a cowardly and timid image for others.
Only when Ivy really started to learn magic did he realize that it was not that simple. It was not just waving a wand or chanting awkward spells. The formation of a power system must have rich theories and a long history. They need to understand history,
More importantly, we need to study theory.
History of Magic, which is taught twice a week, is the course everyone hates the most, and it is also the only subject taught by ghosts. Professor Binns keeps talking in his monotonous voice, and the students below are basically in a daze.
While sleeping, her upper and lower eyelids were fighting. Even Betty kept sitting upright with her eyes closed. This is unforgivable for a lady who attaches great importance to etiquette.
They also have astronomy classes every Wednesday. They have to use telescopes to observe the starry sky, learn how to observe stars, and record the movements of celestial bodies. This course is not bad, and the gorgeous starry sky is quite attractive to the little ones.
There are also herbal medicine classes taught by Dean Sprout himself three times a week in the greenhouse behind the castle. In the most recent class, he was taught how to extract the juice of sapgrass.
Every Friday, Ivy and the others have Potions class. But unfortunately, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw take it together. It's a pity that we can't see Snape confronting Harry.
The entry requirements for Potions are very low. As Snape said, "This subject does not require foolish waving of wands or blindly chanting spells." But if you want to achieve something, you need a certain amount of talent.
Fortunately, Ivey has a good memory, and this course may be useful for cooking in the future. Ivey has learned well. Without Harry, Professor Snape is just an ice cube man.
Surprisingly, Betty was very popular with Snape. Not only did she receive individual guidance, but she also received bonus points. Ivy estimated that it was probably a problem with her green eyes. This made Ivy consider whether she should buy a pair of green contact lenses.
, so that he can get some personal goods from Snape.
All in all, the teaching content is quite substantial.

It's rare for everyone to gather here during breakfast time.
"The eyes of the rabbit, the strings of the piano are faint, quickly turn the water into sweet wine." The voice from the Lion Court next door never stopped, probably reciting a spell.
"What is he doing? Why does he keep chanting curses on the cup?" Justin raised his head to see the situation clearly.
"Bang!" A black mist rose
"Is that Seamus?"
"Who else but him?"
Students from all the colleges looked at the disgraced Seamus with gloating smiles. Fortunately, a series of neighings attracted his attention.
"The letter has arrived!"
Over the auditorium, swarms of owls flew in with packages. The round cake that had not been seen for a long time fell next to Ivy, holding a letter at his feet.
"Little guy, did you miss me?" Ivy stretched out his hands and rubbed them vigorously. The originally soft feathers were fluffed into a mess of hair. Yuanbing stretched out his legs and kicked away Ivy's paws, screaming and hiding behind Betty.
Beside me, Betty fed it two slices of ham and then smoothed its coat.
Ivy was not angry at being rejected by the round cake. He took the envelope and it was a reply from Eileen. When she first arrived at Hogwarts, Betty had informed her that she was safe. The content was consistent with all parents, and it was all about concern.
Words of advice.
"Hey! That's mine!" Another argument came from the Lion Court
"Alas~" Ivy was now extremely lucky to be assigned to Hufflepuff. He turned around and saw that Harry and Ron were confronting the three Malfoys. Malfoy also held a transparent glass ball in his hand.
"What's going on?" Fortunately, Professor McGonagall appeared in time.
"Malfoy took my memory ball, Professor"
"Mr. Draco!"
"Wait and see" Malfoy said with a sullen face, threw the ball back on the table, said harsh words and walked away.
"Your friends are really in trouble," Betty complained.
"There's so much right and wrong when people are popular! It's the same everywhere."

Today is a different day. The first-year students have an extra course: flying class.
At three-thirty in the afternoon, freshmen from four colleges gathered here on the lawn in the courtyard. The teacher hadn't arrived yet, so the students gathered together in twos and threes to chat.
"I've never ridden a flying broomstick. Forget it usually, Malfoy is here today, and I don't want to make a fool of myself in front of him." Harry was a little worried.
"He can't do it either, don't listen to his bragging," Ron comforted.
Hermione had no time to pay attention to them. She kept talking about the flying knowledge she had read. Neville listened hard and hoped that it would be helpful later.
Not far away, Malfoy looked at Harry with eager eyes, as if he might come to make trouble at any time. But he was very worried when he saw Ivy.
"I guess we won't be asked to fly directly for the first time. It will be good if we can get into the air." Ivey guessed.
"Mike, haven't you and Justin tried it?" Ron asked. Ivy is because he lives in the Muggle world, and their family is because they are poor. Otherwise, children from wizarding families should have tried flying.
"My dad took me flying once" This is Mike
"I'm afraid of heights" Justin was a little embarrassed
“···”
"Where's Betty?" Hermione asked
"A little bit" Betty replied
In fact, Betty is very skilled in flying, which can be seen from her flying posture. In order to maintain the ladylike demeanor, Betty does not sit astride it, but sits horizontally with her legs together. Even so, she can fly very fast.
Stablize.
The teacher in charge of teaching is Ms. Huo Qi. She has short, messy gray-white hair, a pair of golden eyes like an eagle, and is dressed in a decent robe. She looks very capable.
