Discussing the The Phantom Tollbooth

First Years

Ruby glanced around nervously about eight minutes into the quiz. He was doing fine--the book had been interesting enough that he remembered most of everything that had happened, but the lack of an instructor was starting to creep him out.

Was Professor Hatake going to show up at all?

He was indeed, just significantly late. Coming in with a appropriately sheepish look, the professor scratched the back of his head.

"Sorry about that, I had a run in with the Ghost of Christmas Past, and had to give him directions. Now then, please hand in your quizzes and open your books."

Second Years

Select a poem from 'Ronald's Dance with Spiders, and other magical rhymes,' then write your own poem in the same style.

Second Years

Toph despised how Professor Hatake was always late for class. If he could be late, why couldn't she?

She took the quiz when she walked in, asking another student what was written on the board, and sat down. She flicked her wand at the parchment, causeing braille to pop out from the written words. She ran her fingers over the page, put the paper in her magical typewriter, and answered the questions which appeared in both braille and ink.

What she loved best about her typewriter was that she could type something without ink, and thus, no one would be able to read it but her. Occassionally, she would write a little something at the end of her assignments for her own personal entertainment. This time, she wrote, "Professor Hatake eats shit and dances around naked when no one watches," all in just braille. Grinning, she took her quiz from her typewriter and placed it on the desk like everyone else.

Ciel wasn't surprised to find the professor absent when he arrived, but that was a good thing, it meant not having to endure hia presence for a few more minutes. Without saying a word he grabbed one of the quizzes and took a seat near the back. What a pointless class anyway. He wasn't hear to study literature, he was here to study magic.

Reluctantly, he filled out the test with as little florish as possible, the poem's subject sounding vaguely similiar to stories like Faust and Dorian Gray.

After turning it in, Ciel returned to his seat and hoped time would move swiftly.

Komachi sat down in one of the seats, glancing around for the professor, and then stared at the quiz before picking up her quill and began to fill the paper out. Was it okay for a professor to be late for class? Students got in trouble for it all the time, when they were late. It must have been an adult thing.

Oh, she was thinking too much about it. Don't think, feel. She felt annoyed about this double standard.

Pushing those thoughts out of her head, she went on to complete her quiz.

Third Years

[catcrossedpath]

Class discussion comparing 'Jane Eyre' by Jane Austen with 'Love of a Pure Blood Fool' by her sister Elizabeth Cassandra Austen (Who was secretly a witch).

Fourth Years

[catcrossedpath]

Editing each others papers on the classic novel "Duz Giantslime," (set in the first Goblin War). The papers should incorporate what they've learned during the Multicultural Unit.

Fifth Years

[catcrossedpath]

Class discussion on the similarities and contrasts of Muggle and Wizard romance novels, focusing on common and unique tropes. Please note, you've had to read both classic and trashy romance novels. 'The Brighton Warlock's Mastered Mermaid' was probably a big hit.

Touya Akira was fond of literature, he really was. He enjoyed esteemed writers such as Shakespeare, Dickens and the Bronte sisters. Wuthering Heights was an excellent book.

However he did not think that 'The Brighton Warlock's Mastered Mermaid' was classified as literature.

He entered the classroom and sat down, his books in a neat pile and frowned at the teacher, because reading dime store smut was a total waste of his time.

Setsuna, for her part, simply tried her best to maintain some modicum of dignity as she sat in her seat, silently wondering how the head of her house was allowed to get away with assigning such material. Certainly his actual teaching methods, though subtle, were effective...but still!

'Ojou-sama, I do this for you.'

Re: Fifth Years

[catcrossedpath]

Of course, the teacher was not there to be frowned at for quite some time, but when he did arrive, it was through the door with a sheepish expression.

"Huh, it seems I'm a bit late. Sorry about that, I got lost on the road of life. Anyway, are you all done with your quizzes?"
