Muggle Studies Class 1 [All years]

[brandon harper]

Brandon had requested to meet with all of his students at this point, deciding that the lesson he had for them at this point wasn't age specific and in fact was very important. The lesson in question promiently featured a set of manikins well dressed in muggle clothing of various styles and levels of class - different attires for different situations. There was often talk in muggle London about strange people dressed in cloaks and similar such attire, and Brandon was worried for the statute of secrecy. Luckily Brandon himself had lived as a muggle for several years, and gotten very good at passing as one, despite his wizarding upbringing as a Squib. As the students entered he was going over the clothing with a lint roller. He'd purchased one for each of the students as well, the younger students would find it useful in cleaning their robes and for the older students who had mastered such simple magics, it would be an interesting novelty item, he supposed. 

"Morning, everyone." Brandon greeted the assembled students. "Today, we're going to be taking a lesson in passing as muggles. It's practical more than anything. We're gonna cover simple tasks and mannerisms that muggles might do during day to day life.  We'll cover things like currency, and muggle cultural differences as part of this series of lessons, but for now we're concerned with letting you walk down a muggle street and get where you need to go without causing any distress, or attracting undue attention. Staring with clothing."

He waited to see how the class would respond to this.
