The following is a transcription of “More idle jottings (Page 1) “, one of the Potterania extras stored in your Scrapbook

Contains a list of Subjects, genders, and teachers’ names – 12 total, 6 male, 6 female
Note: This is confirmation that JKR uses the abbreviation D.A.D.A.; Flying lessons is not a listed subject.
Also contains musings on names for Arithmancy and Divinations teachers, Hippogriffs, etc. and an early chronological chart of the D.A.D.A. position.

The Certificate reads:
“More idle jottings…. An attempt (circa Prisoner of Azkaban) early to finalise the names and genders of the teachers at Hogwarts.  Also playing around with some names for hippogriffs – still a long way from Buckbeak.”
