Oh, and are we doing different lessons for different years?
I am...
I plan to just re-use them every term,
maybe alter them here and there...
but keep them essentially the same...
I was also going to say that students couldn't do work for any years but their own...

Oh!
And I decided I'm going to give out 5 points for homework,
but I've decided to use the OWL grade system...
Like so...
Outstanding (O)- 5 points
Acceptable (A)- 4 points
Exceeds Expectations (E)- 3 points
Poor (P)- 2 points
Dreadful (D)- 1 point
Troll (T)- no points

what do you all think?
I like that system, so if my application is accepted, I will use it.

If it were up to me, alone,
you would be accepted...
actually, if would have already been accepted a long time ago...

Updating...

KTweirdchick
I'm not too sure where to talk about this,
but I figure that the Staff Room is as good as any other...

I was wondering if we were going to pick teachers soon, because I want to do an article on the new teachers...Plus, it might be good just to get it done and over with...
3nodding
I think I know of 5 applications in circulation:

  • Me (KTweirdchick)

    • To continue to teach Divination

  • RubyRays

    • To continue to teach Transfiguration

  • Dragons375

    • To teach to continue to Charms

  • AngilWingz

    • To teach Muggle Studies (replacing Ghost of the Titanic)

  • DevilsDarkAngel

    • To continue to teach Flying Class


Now, these are the only applications that I know of,
and I'd be glad to look over any other ones. But, so far,
I motion to accept all applicants and invite them to create their new class rooms.
(oo...I feel all formal... xd )

Does anyone else have any ideas or comments?
I invite all teaching applicants and Mods to converse...

(so, no students, house elves, or any other type of member who haven't applied to teach will be tolorated to post...)



Also,
vivacious_red applied, at least to me, to be Charms teacher
^as she's my sister, I can tell you she's pretty good, but I also enjoy dragons classes thuroghly...(Anyways, I, prersonally, think that we might be better off with Dragons,
my sister wont apply for anything else (I'm almost sure) since she already has lessons written out from her other Charms class...
but she's is a busy girl...
but then, if she doesn't do anything to her class,
I could always call her up and yell at her...
but I suppose Ruby could do the same thing with Dragons...


Also, go-girl has applied...but she didn't specify a subject
she merely stated that she's like to teach anything but Herbology (

Is Charlie_Chaplin still doing potion class, because I could do that class and I already have an idea.

HELLO!?!?
We need to pick out teachers!!!
As a matter of fact...
I now say that they are all hiered...
I'm take this privledge due to lack of assitance by fellow employers!!!!
go-girl, go ahead and take Potions (but I'm going to be watching you like a hawk to see if you forget this class like you did with Herbology...)
DDA-you were born to teach flying, go re-make your classroom!
Ruby-if you can fit it into your schedule, re-make your class as welll
Dragons, I sugest you PM vivacious and figure out who has more time to teach!
Angil, you're one of the most dedicated members we have, I'd be honored to teach along side you
and I already re-made my own class a long time ago

I suggest you all e-make your class rooms, but do not post your lessons until the 24th!

You are not required to make lessons for each year, but it is encoraged...
there will be 4 years of students at the start of term...

If o0Pinkie0o or any of the mods have a problem with me appointing teachers...
ban me for all I care...
at least something is getting done...

I'm not entierly sure why I'm posting this here...I just want to make sure everyone reads it...
It may be deleted whenever...


Katie's Open Letter to the Guild and it's Mods:

We have bearly a week to be ready for the start of term!!!
The following will happen with or with out the approval or help of o0Pinkie0o or the other mods. And if there are any problems with me taking such measures, I'll freely resign from my crew-status, the guild, and gaia itself, leaving all my valubles and possible even the H.Monthly to a trusted member...

  • Since no one seems to care about hireing teachers, I've done it (see quote below)
  • if I do not receive the key to the sorting hat quiz from Ruby by tuseday, I'll be making my own and opening the hat on Wednesday for a last minute sorting that will last untill midnight (pst) on the the 23rd

    • as I will be very busy this week with the H.Monthly, which will come out as scheduled, it would be nice if someone would help me make a new test, if needed (any interested can PM me)

  • The Hogwarts Express will be, sadly, re-made, and opened on the 22nd and then closed on the 23rd...

    • don't worry, I'll keep all my info on Hope and she will be making a re-appearance to the guild on this next trip as she did in September

  • The Beggining feast will be held on the 24th, when class rooms and common rooms will open, and will held in the Great Hall.

    • random school items will be given away by myself (and maybe one or two volunteers) to those who attend the opening feast. Since Fright Week is due to begin on that very same day, school robes will not be required...
    • donations to buy such school items will not be needed...your money will be better traded with AngilWingz to support Fright Week, or better yet stop by this thread and buy yourself some raffle tickets, or this place, and enter yourself in the costume contest

  • The Duelling Club will be accepting applications to be a Duelling Instructor the entire first week of school and will open to the students on November first. (see the Duelling Club for more info...
  • The Marauders Map is currently under hiatus, and will be up and running as soon as things die down, sorry for the inconvenience, but the Map Makers are currently having difficulties...
  • the school calendars are also currently on hiatus, since I've had no time to work on them and they are estimated to be done about 2 weeks after term begins...again, sorry for the inconveinece...I'm not wonder woman y'know...


And now, I' posted this about teachers (one of the most important and negelected issues to be fixed before term begins) in the the Staff room...it says who I deem employed and what those who were not employed must do in order to make me think they should be...
from the Staff Room, Katie

OK!
So far, Angil has made her classroom
I'm afraid all old teachers are required to re-make thier classes...

copy and paste...
it takes about 20 minutes tops...

I was also thinking we should allow teachers to aply all this up-coming week...
I wonder if I'm alloud to do two classes...
classes actually don't really take too much of my time...
not compared to the H.Monthly or the calendar...
but I want to teach Care of Magical Creatures...
I have a new account, Hope, she could teach it...

even though she's only 7 years old...

I thought I'd post this here as well as PM it to the mods...
My Hogwarts Teaching Application



1. About how long have you been a part of the Guild?
Alas, only about a week...

2. How many posts have you made?
Alas, again, only 5 posts. But if you add up all of my account posts, then 2,251 posts...

3. Have you ever been enrolled in any other classes with this guild and were you diligent with the homework that was assigned to you?
Not on this account...

4. Class you are applying for:
Care of Magical Creatures

5. Professor's name and user name, so RP and otherwise (RP characters are welcomed, if not wanted but not required):
My name and user name are the same. (You may look at my journal for more info on my background)

6. Why you want to teach here at Hogwarts:
Because my daddy is getting a bit old to teach and, being raised by him, I think I know just as much as he does about magical creatures, even though I am only 7.

7. What will class be like under your instruction? Can you give an example of what one of your lessons will look like? And perhaps how you think you will set up the class? (You can just give a brief description if you'd like)
My class will be organized very much like Mafalda Prewett's Divination Class. However, obviously, it will have different criteria.

8. Can you give us any references? Someone who is part of the guild. (The more active and trusted, the better. And they better know they're your reference before you send in this application.)
Well, my other account, KTweirdchick and vivatious_red

9. What do you have that any other of the applying teachers don't have:
I'm dedicated, inteligent, own a copy of Magical Beasts and Where to Find Them, and I listen to the 6 books regularly.

10. Anything else you would like to add:
Well, I don't know. I don't want anyone to think I'm taking on too much work. Because lessons take up the least amount of time for me and I just really like Care of Magical Creatures. I hope you all want to hire me, because I could have a class room set up this weekend and my first lesson my next week, which will be enough time for students to enroll into the class.
