Homework tasks can vary from simply giving definitions of different terms to writing some information on a certain magical creature or answering questions about a magical creature. These will be given at the end of every second lesson at least.
Assignments: Assignments are extended homework tasks. You will be required to write a report answering specific questions about an allocated magical creature. These are only given rarely to make sure that you are taking in the information that you are gathering in class. Some of these will be done in pairs or groups.
Tests: Tests are just a series of questions to determine exactly how much you have learnt. All questions will be PM'd to you and you are not to converse with other students to ask them for answers or discuss it for this is cheating and if I find out about it you will automatically recieve a T Grade.
