He was abducted by Hagrid when he turned 11 so that would place him maybe around the fifth or sixth grade.

I don’t know if canonically there are math classes at Hogwarts.

The thought came to while I was watching the anime Mashle.

    Boring? This is the same universe where wizards canonically defecated in the streets and used fecal vanishing spells.

    However, when Hogwarts’ plumbing became more elaborate in the eighteenth century (this was a rare instance of wizards copying Muggles, because hitherto they simply relieved themselves wherever they stood, and vanished the evidence), the entrance to the Chamber was threatened, being located on the site of a proposed bathroom.

      Im surprised that’s so controversial. I would expect wizards to do exactly that if it wasn’t for modern plumbing, I mean, people used to shit in pots and dump it out their window into the street in the morning. Or crap in a cold and smelly hole inside a basic wooden shed out in their yard.

      If you have magic at that point why would you not instead delete it afterwards, considering the alternatives?

        Does vanishing feces mean is deleted though or is it going to end up in the walls of buildings like Arby’s wrappers left behind by construction workers?

          I think there’s a throwaway line in a book that a wizard discovered vanishing things sent them to another dimension.

            Imagine it landed in our dimension and people are trying to make sense of it.
