Welcome to potions. As you should know I am Prof. Snape. Today we are having a class through message boards! How this class works is I will say something about the ingredients in a potion and when they are put together what they turn into. I may say something like "what are the ingredients in the Polyjuice potion?" the first student to answer receives 10 house points. You may ask me a question any time until this class ends on 5/3/05. Fell free to ask anything in or during this class. This lesson will end once 20 STUDENT posts are made on it. That means that there wan't be a new lesson until you write more.

The first person who can tell me what potions is made from chopped daisy roots, skinned shrivelfig, sliced caterpillar, one rat spleen, and dash of leech juice will recieve 10 points. This is an important question because this is the potion that we will be studing.

Otis knew the answer. His hand rose in the air and he waited for Snape to call on him. Otis knew that if he called out Snape would throw one of his fits. Otis Greenly I did not ask you to call-out and annoy the whole class. Know-it-all Snape's voice rang in his head.

Otis you look as if you are going to burst out of your socks. Tell me the answer, but also explain the effects of the answer!

"The Shrinking Solution uses those ingridients. Of course there are also seperate procedures you must use.", Otis found himself rambling on and decided to stop, it was probably something Snape would get mad at him for.

"Otis, next time I ask you a question all I want is an answer, not a lecture." Snape said, "I am your teacher which means that I should already know, dont you think? Or am I mistaken?"

Otis mimicked the words in his head. Snape was a rather unfair teacher, he knew that of course, Snape was always showing favortism towards the house of slytherin. If Snape wasn't the teacher and didn't have the ability to get Otis expelled from school, Otis would probably curse him, but for now all he could do was sit in the dungeon and smile politely at the monster.

Skye listened to Snape ramble on with her mind only half way on. She couldn't beleive he would talk to Otis like that after he had answered perfectly. She rolled her eyes and started to count the cracks in the ceiling.

Derek wished he was anywhere else. He was so bored he couldn't think straight. He looked around his desk area and saw a broken quill. He snapped off a piece of it and flicked it towards the front of the classroom. Just as he was reaching for the quill,he saw what the piece had hit. none other than a greasy haired slimeball they call Snape. Derek gulped and waited for the worst.

Snape looked around the classroom and noticed that everyone in class was loosing focus. He mumbled Colloportus and pointed his wand to the door. He threated that the class doesn't get to go until they can write a 100 word paper on what they would find interesting. No one wants to teach a class that everyone hates.

'We're not allowed to go unless we do what??' thought Lyra. 'What a slimeball. This is just making me cranky...'. But she started writing: "I would be interested in making medical potions like the Pepperup potion, to learn how to cure a cold. Also, I would be very interested in learning how to make a variety of antidotes, to be informed about which one I can use to help people that have been poisoned by a potion and to be able to make them without making mistakes, as this is an important ability in the wizarding world. But I would have to know which antidote to use for which potion. Then there are other interesting potions like the Shrinking solution or the Swelling solution."

Snape was behind Lyra as she was writting her paper. He was very satisfied with her work. He also agreed that medical potions are ver interesting. He desided that would be part of his next lesson. He went away to go and see what other students were writing when suddenly he thought that after this the students can each submit one potion that they would like to make and research. That is going to be the next homework assignment (I am telling you this now but don't post it ANYWHERE until I make an assignment out of it.

Derek rolled his eyes and took out some parchment,ink,and a quill. Writing and reading it outloud at the same time, Derek said/wrote "I would find it extremely interesting if Snape wouldn't be such an ugly git...."

Otis was suprised that Snape hadn't noticed the broken quill that was stuck in his greasy black hair right now. He stifled a giggle and was glad that it wasn't him who had put it there. After giggling for quite a while he reached into his satchel and pulled out a rather long piece of parchment and his handy Quick-Quotes quill. With his right hand he began to write his one-hundred word essay in his famous chicken-scratch print. They never really taught penmanship at Hogwarts.
I would find it very interesting and thought provoking to learn about antidotes to the potions that we learn about in your. The main reason that I find that learning about antidotes would be interesting is because of the fact that most potions have permanent effects on their drinkers if not permanent than long lasting. It would also be very useful for us as young wizards to learn how to concoct these antidotes ourselves. Oftenly wizards of all ages become poisoned by some sort of poison and do not have the knowledge of how to cure themselves. It would be a good idea to know how to protect yourself against these poisonous potions.

Snape heard what Derek said and said, "Derek, what you are writing is unexceptable. You are now recieving a detention." One more remark like that and you will lose 15 house points.
