Homework will be updated once a week on the weekends. Any points from completed homework you may have earned will be tallied then as well.

Each question is worth five House points unless marked otherwise. Partial credit may be awarded in exceptional cases at the discretion of the professor.

If you do not include both your name and your House with your homework (in the beginning of the message before your answers) you will not receive any credit! See the instructions below if you are confused. If you have any questions, please send me a Note.

For the following questions, indicate which of the pair is the wizarding ingredient and which is a Muggle substance.

1. Lacewing flies/Potato bugs

2. Bluegrass/Knotgrass

3. Boomslang skin/Lyre snake skin

Extra credit (four points): What complex potion requires all three of the wizarding ingredients named above, and (two further points) in what reference text does the recipe appear?
