Had Norman known what the students were thinking, he would’ve assured them that there was no bribery involved with the prizes. He had candy and plushes left over from the quiz bowl activity earlier this term, and he had no use for such things himself. It made more sense to give the rest away than to have them cluttering up his office indefinitely. As the students went to work, he roamed the room once more. While he’d prepared ahead of time with fireproof charms on himself, he took care to stand behind the students well out of their line of fire.

He liked what he saw so far. Ackerly’s preparation got an approving nod. He couldn’t wait to see what she’d do when she started practicing the spell. Elsewhere, Ridley-Rush’s near sever of the dummy’s arm got a smile and a soft round of applause. “Excellent, Mr. Ridley-Rush!” he said. “Try wrapping your rope around the dummy’s waist; that’ll melt it much faster.”

Fox’s spell likewise received a smile from Norman. Although he hadn’t burned it much yet, he’d succeeded in tying the dummy up. “Great aim, Mr. Fox,” he said with an approving nod. He could tell this was hard for the boy, so he offered extra words of encouragement. “One thing that helps when I want to produce real fire is to imagine something that makes me angry.”

Reversing course, Norman noticed Atreyu-Rehman’s spell attempts. “Very good, Mr. Atreyu-Rehman. You can do it,” he said with an encouraging smile. “Visualize your rope. How does it look coming out of your wand?”

As he made his way to the front, he checked his watch and saw that time was winding down. “You have about 10 minutes left!” he announced.

OOC: You’ll have a little extra time for this activity. We’ll wrap up in about 18 HOURS.
