It is how we make things better for ourselves, for the people in our lives, and for our world. From an inner place of intention, we are working to usher in a world of peace, prosperity, love, health, and spirituality.

"And then, once you had managed to find them, there were the classes themselves. There was a lot more to magic, as Harry quickly found out, than waving your wand and saying a few funny words." — The challenging nature of academic classes at Hogwarts [src]
Some of the subjects learned in Hogwarts; the bat represents Defence Against the Dark Arts, the wand represents Charms, the mortar and pestle represents Potions and the cat represents Transfiguration
There were a variety of subjects taught at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. [1] [2] These included both the core curriculum and the electives, available from third year forward. [1] In the fifth year, students took the Ordinary Wizarding Level (O.W.L.) exams to determine whether or not they would reasonably be able to keep up with the much more advanced curriculum in the remaining two years. [3] In seventh year, students would take the Nastily Exhausting Wizarding Test (N.E.W.T.), the results of which were what potential employers would look at when they were looking for a career after completing their education.
Some classes, including the core classes, might be dropped in sixth year. Specialised classes such as Alchemy became available in sixth year provided there was sufficient demand. [1]
Even though students couldn't apply for Time-Turners to take more classes than were able to fit in the timetables, a student's head of house was able to suggest a Time-Turner to an individual on very rare occasions. [4] All students did, however, have a choice to drop a course if they became a burden (aside from the essential classes). [5]

Reviews for "Journey to the Amazon Rainforest in 'Magic Tree House Book 12"
1. Amy - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with "Magic Tree House Book 12". The storyline felt rushed and the characters were underdeveloped. There was not enough detail given about the historical event that the kids were visiting, which made it hard to connect with the story. I found myself skimming through the pages, hoping it would get better, but unfortunately, it didn't. Overall, I was left feeling unsatisfied with this installment of the series.
2. John - 1 star - I have been a fan of the Magic Tree House books for a while now, but book 12 was a huge letdown for me. The plot felt repetitive and unoriginal. It seemed like the author was just rehashing the same ideas from previous books without adding anything new or exciting. The pacing was slow, and I found myself struggling to stay engaged with the story. I would not recommend this book to other readers, especially if you're already familiar with the series.
3. Emily - 2 stars - As an avid reader of the Magic Tree House series, I was really looking forward to book 12. However, it fell short of my expectations. The writing style seemed basic and lacked the depth I was used to from previous books. Additionally, the characters' actions and dialogue felt forced and unrealistic. I felt like the author was trying too hard to create conflict and excitement without truly understanding the characters or the historical event they were exploring. Overall, I found this book to be a disappointment and hope future installments regain the magic that made me love the series in the first place.
