The Transfiguration Classroom is Professor Minerva McGonagall's domain at Hogwarts, a formal room of wooden desks, workbenches, and a blackboard where students learn the exacting art of changing one thing into another. In Harry's second year it is cluttered with half-finished projects, such as white rabbits being turned into slippers, a sign of increasingly ambitious coursework. By the third and fourth books it serves as a setting for lectures and demonstrations, including McGonagall's lessons on Animagi and the announcement of the Yule Ball. Throughout the series it reflects McGonagall's strict but fair discipline and the growing difficulty of magical education as the students mature.
