Care of Magical Creatures Field Study

 

Meet the Professor

Picture
I am Prof. Caroline Moncrief.  I have been teaching here at Hogwarts for a few years now. Before coming to work here I was a muggle Biology teacher for about thirteen years. Since then I have taught Herbology, Muggle Studies, History of Magic, Transfiguration, Care of Magical Creatures, and a mess of summer courses.  I have a love for animals as well as children.  My office is crawling with both mundane and magical creatures.  Outside of the school I do have a family.  I like to keep them and work separated for the most part.  I am here to teach you that is all you really need to know.

Class Rules

Be respectful to me, your classmates, and the animals. Any disrespect from name calling, to talking badly about a house, or kicking an animal all end in detention. Leave house issues outside the classroom. This means if you hate Slytherins or Gryffindors if there is any mention of them in my class spoken or other wise it will be considered disrespecting your classmates and me by bringing it up. We are all dust colored in here. the Animal part is pretty simple you respect them and they will respect you, which means you will be keeping fingers. Any questions feel free to PM me with them.

Please also note that in order to take this class you must be a 5th year or higher. If you are of a lower year you must have earned a quill in basic Care of Magical Creatures, Intermediate Care of Magical Creature or an OWL. Thanks.

Grading

I will be using the traditional OWL Grading system for this class.

90-100% O (Outstanding) or at least 250 points

80-89% E (Exceeds Expectations) or at least 200 points

70-79% A (Acceptable) or at least 180 points

60-69% D (Dreadful) or at least 140 points

0-59% T (Troll) or never show up.


How the grading works to earn a quill:

  • Each post you make is worth ten (10) points.
  • You must post at least three (3) a lesson worth thirty (30) points
  • Posting the required amount of times per lessons you will earn one hundred eighty (180) points earning a grade of acceptable thus earning the quill.
  • The more you post the higher your grade will be.
  • You must be a 5th year or higher to take this class
  • If you are a lower year then you must have earned a quill in Basic Care of Magical Creature, quill in Interimate Care of Magical Creatures or OWL in Care of Magical Creatures.
*Posts: I will not accept single line posts. I am putting effort into this I expect a little effort in return. I am asking for a small five to six sentence paragraph per post in order for them to count in full.
**Please note this is subject to change but a basic of three posts per lesson are expected.
