LEO || Entry Two
To my third years, we'll be working with salamanders this week. Now if you're not properly prepared, you may get burnt, so I would like twelve inches on the proper care and handling of salamanders, to be handed in to me at the beginning of class, or you will be sent back and lose a house point for each of you.
Fourth and fifth years, eighteen inches on the uses of unicorn tail and hair. Bring your cloaks to class, we'll be heading into the Forest. As usual, no antics in the forest or you'll be giving an essay on the dangers of the forest creatures. The list in my office is inclusive, so I'd put aside a day or two for that at least.
Sixth and Seventh, no homework is due, but I do ask that if you have any strong feelings about thestrals, you speak to me before class. I assume you covered them in previous classes.
If there are any questions, reply here or see me in person.

I never saw the sense in being terrified. You have to treat the forest and its inhabitants with respect! Students often n33d to learn respect. It's no use letting them sit in their seats learning about things they could m33t face to face if they are careful and aware of the dangers.

At least taking them there gives them a taste of it
