Activity: Transfiguration Test
Points: Participation Only → one point per correct answer, maximum of ten points. Note: You must earn at least five points for your bonus items to be counted.
Deadline:
Details: Since we're at the beginning of a new term and I'm a new club leader, I thought we'd start things off with a little ten-question test to gauge your knowledge of transfiguration in the Harry Potter world. Each correct answer will be worth one point. In the case of questions with multiple answers, I will be using the Harry Potter Lexicon as the definitive source of information.
INDIVIDUAL POINTS: You may check your individual totals on this spreadsheet.
HOUSE POINTS:
Gryffindor: 98
Hufflepuff: 319
Ravenclaw: 160
Slytherin: 246
