For summer we did a 7 week "quarter". She took Arithimancy, (taught by a fairy called Nora from a book from the library called Math for girls and other intelligence beings), Transfiguration, (crafts), and Defense Against the Dark Arts with a focus on nightmares and monsters.
Arithimancy brought tiny scrolls in tiny block print. She did 1-2 hands on activities per week ranging from a scale size room to a 3' dome made out of rolled up newspaper.
Transfiguration was taught by Professor McGonnigal, curt but kind McGonnigal. She made baggy butterflies, paper airplanes, birthday cards, decorated a cake, made a mobile, wrapping paper. and a gift for her daddy for his birthday.
Defense Against the Dark Arts was taught by Professor Lupin. Calm, controlled and supportive Lupin. She tried a new "technique" every week and marked whether it worked. She made a sachet to go under her pillow, room spray to give her teddy bear the power to grow to protect her, a soothing tape, a "spell" to chant at bed time, a "Go Away Monsters" sign, and even hot chocolate before brushing teeth. Then she wrote a letter to Professor Lupin saying which worked best.
