June 1st - June 19th
It's almost summer! The last few weeks of school have come, and students will need to study hard for their final exams! Don't let up yet, or your grades won't be what you want them to. Of course, the weather is almost perfect and pristine, in attempts to lure students away from their studies.

Andre was finishing grading the essays from last class. He had forgotten about them until after the Masque. Oh how time flys. He hurried through them, not grading them as hard as he should. He barely noticed the class entering, but Snow did. Snow Storm noticed each and every person in the class entering, and when the numbers matched in her head, she screeched at Andre. He glared at the owl, before he turned to the class.
"Greetings. Hope you all enjoyed having no homework since the past class! I almost have your essays on electricity graded."
He walked in front of the board and tapped it with his wand. On it appeared a diagram of a complete electrical circut. "You all should be ready to make a circut now. If you have questions, raise your hand, but you each should have 4 wires, a battery, and a lightbulb. Just use this diagram on the board, or the one in your book on page 17. No magic whatsoever! 15 minutes! Begin!"
He started to walk around the class helping students make their circuts. He was looking for the first person to get their light to turn on. Unbeknowst to them, there was 20 house points waiting for whoever could get the circut to work first.
Raena smiled as she entered the Muggle Studies classroom, because she knew that the Professor hadn't even noticed his class yet even though Rae was the last one to enter. She waited for his owl to alert him, and this happened just as she had taken her seat near the front of the class. While many of the other purebloods she knew had opted out of Muggle Studies because they thought it was useless, Raena was of the opinion that it was one of the classes in which she learned the most. Since she knew very little about muggles, every little thing that she learned was new and exciting.
She nodded in agreement when Professor Kumocoo mentioned about them not having homework last time. She was grateful for it, because from what her brother had said her fifth year was going to be full of homework and difficult lessons. She wasn’t looking forward to that at all. She was curious to see what she had gotten on her electricity essay, though she knew that it took Professors a while to grade everyone’s work.

Fifteen minutes? Raena was only a little worried about not finishing. While she was fairly competent in all of her other classes, Muggle Studies was one of the more challenging ones for her because it involved a lot more work and studying on her part. She immediately set to work, placing the six pieces of equipment on her desk in the order which she’d use it, if only for her own organizational purposes.

Andre walked around, surveying everyone's progress. He had come to know his students over the past few months, and knew that a few struggled with Muggle things. Many of his students were halfblooded or muggle born and therefore had an idea what they were doing. A few were pureblooded and he was always ready to help push them a little furhter. He kept walking and paused to scold one boy who was trying to use his wand.
Moving agian he noticed one of his students in the front have a little trouble starting. He sauntered up that way and waved to his owl. The white bird started flying around the room watching students and landing on any desks of students trying to use magic. Andre however went down to
Raena Deveau's desk. he smiled and crouched down. "A little lost Miss Deveau?" He looked at her organized piles and noticed she really hadn't started. He was willing to help, but he wanted her permission to help. He could remember early in his years when it nerved him to no end when teachers tried to help when he didn't want any.
