Introduction to the Muggle Studies
Contary to popular belief, Muggles are not as boring as it may seem. In order to be a good wizard, one must have a knowledge and an understanding of one's past. A very wise muggle once said, "Those who do not learn from history, are doomed to repeat it."
Here, in Muggle Studies, we will be learning loads of things from the Ancient Ansestors, giant wars, to electricity, and the history of Scotland's Greatest Muggle, William Wallace!. In this class, dates are not important. What is important is knowing why things happened and how they affected the rest of the world.
Code of Conduct
Please show respect for your fellow students as well as your teacher. Points may be taken away from any student who fails to do so. Also, remember to refrain from spamming.
Homework
Homework will be assigned at the end of every class. Once an assignment is given, the due date will be posted with it. Homework will involve written assignments, quizzes, and creative writing which will give students an oppurtunity to flex their creative muscles. Spelling and grammer will also be assessed so please do not be sloppy!
Class Supplies
Quill and Parchment
Textbook: Muggles In The Universe by William McWalls
Textbook: A History Of Muggles by Mangus McKenzie
Grading system

P for Poor: The first of the fail grades, to borderline students. Don't worry is you get a Grade P, as it means there is room for improvement!
D for Dreadful: The second of the fail grades. If you receive a Grade D and wish to improve, send me an Owl and I will give you some tips. You Must Send Me An Owl!!
T for Troll: The last of the fail grades - I hope no one gets this! A Grade T will be awarded in cases where the homework is incomplete or has not answered the question properly. YOU WILL GET DETENTION and will lose 30 House Points if this happens more than once!!
