Herbology Classes: All Levels[8]

[Neville Longbottom]

*gives his best stern look at the two heads, trying to look like he had seen McGonagall do when he was a student, though he was pretty sure he was failing*

Yes well, lets get started, today we will be learning about gillyweed and how it differs from the muggle plant known as seaweed. Can anyone tell me what seaweed is?

*pulls out a big contain full of seaweed for the students to pass around*

[Heidi Green]

*Grunts as she looks at the seaweed.*

"It's an algae, Professor."

*Gingerly touches the green plant with a look of disgust on her face*

"My mother loves to eat the stuff."

[Johanna Vane]

um...

*looks at the green stuff.*

That's the stuff that's on the beach- it's in salt water. Isn't Gilly weed fresh water?

[Johanna Vane]

He looked like one of those huffy puffy guys, the ones who thought they were better than everyone else. the Ravenclaw was getting to him, and when she looked back at the desk infront of her, trying not to smirk*

[Neville Longbottom]

*nods*

Good work Heidi, 5 points to Ravenclaw

And yes Johanna, good thing to pick up. That is the point of today's lesson, the differences and also the similarities between the two plants.

Now can someone tell me the properties of Gillyweed? A correct answer will win you 5 house points

[Johanna Vane]

*lights up as she thinks about it*
