[edit] Overview
Charms is a course that teaches how to cast the class of spells known as Charms. These are spells that alter an object without changing its essential nature. Given a teapot, the spell that makes it tapdance across the desk would be a charm, the spell that turns it into a tortoise would not.
[edit] Extended Description
The Charms class is taught by Professor Flitwick. Spells taught in this class include Wingardium Leviosa, Summoning and Banishing, Aguamenti, and turning vinegar into wine. Because it is a lab class, with much wand work and people saying spells, it is often a nearly ideal place for Harry, Ron, and Hermione to have more or less private conversations.
