Just a reminder that you only have a few more days to participate in the current History of Magic activity, going on over here. So far, the class has relived Ron's horrible morning, seen some suspiciously amorous interactions between Snape and Sprout, and Hermione has punched you-know-who in the nose a few times.

Activity: Blast to the Past
Points: Repetitive Activity. Participation and additional comments: 2pts. 30pts max.
Deadline: Wednesday, March 14 @ Midnight UTC (8pm EST)
Details: Tired of being called the most boring professor in the history of Hogwarts, Professor Binns has decided to shake things up by taking his students on a field trip. And where else would a history professor takes students but into the past? In the comments, write the story of their adventure into history. Each participant should add to the story one sentence at a time. (Please post as new comments, not as replies.) This is a group writing activity: where they go and what they do is entirely up to you guys.

Each contribution to the story is worth 2pts, with a max of 30pts.

This activity was suggested by the ineffable

canarycream, who will receive 5 bonus points if she participates.
