Professor McGonagall clearly doesn’t believe Malfoy at the end of the chapter when he says Harry is outside with a dragon. She even takes 20 points away from Slytherin. Imagine that you are Professor McGonagall. How would you have dealt with Draco in this situation? Please explain in detail.

first of all i love harry potter, im 100% obsessed

Explanation:

its a little unfair that she takes 20 points from draco but then she takes 50 each from hermionie, harry and nevile.

she handled it very well. she has yet to know that informing snape or dracos parents doesnt do anything. no favoritism. i would have done the exact same thing knowing what McGonagall knows.

she has yet to know about other students out of bed. she just thinks he is trying to stir up trouble by lieing about other students and what they are doing. she could have taken away more points in my opinion, maybe like 10 more. in her eyes he is out of bed, making up lies, and trying to get other students in trouble. i would have taken like 10 points away for each of thoes.
