Defence Against the Dark Arts Lesson Two Homework
After finishing your homework, please send it to me by pm before the indicated deadline. I will review and grade it, and then once Lesson Three has started, I will post what you wrote in this thread. At the beginning of our next lesson, we will correct what you had to do and I will award House Points depending on how seriously you have done your homework.
Here is the list of questions you have to answer about the Knock-Back Jinx. Since Lesson Three is starting in just a few days and since you already have homework assignments in other subjects, I decided to give you a shorter and easier task than usual. You can receive a maximum of ten points. Please make sure to do it (it really won't take long). Any student who doesn't complete this task will see ten points deducted from their House.
Lesson Two will begin on September 4
