7. ↑ , Chapter B, scene 11 mentions there was Herbology first thing in the morning. It was most likely the same day this schedule took place, as there is not enough room in the week to fit another lesson first thing in the morning judging by other mentions in the book of subjects also having taken place first thing in the morning.

11. ↑ , Chapter B, scene 16 - When the Chamber of Secrets was opened, the teacher of the previous lesson would take the students to the next. Gilderoy Lockhart, the Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher, led his students 'midmorning, when they were being led to History of Magic'. Therefore, they had his lesson before heading to the next.
12. ↑ , Chapter B, scene 8 sees Fred and George with a salamander they had rescued from a lesson. As they were seen with it on Saturday and they couldn't have hidden it for long without getting away with it, they must have rescued it recently from a lesson. Friday is the most likely day.

And that wasn't all. Next to him was another figure, the strangest sight Harry had ever seen. It was Nearly Headless Nick'.
