Professor Stone let herself wander the grass around the perimeter of the class to both allow herself the means to observe the practicing and provide assistance should any of the students need it. It did seem to her that she had a good bunch of workers today however, each one appearing to get the hang of the bandaging charm fairly quickly and decently enough as they worked. “Good job, Ms. Awning,” she remarked to encourage the first year, especially as she worked on getting the pronunciation right before moving on. She couldn’t help the slightly bemused smile that graced her pale features as she overheard Mr. Atreyu-Rehman and Mr. Grunt. They would indeed have their moment to do just that in the immediate future with her plans to wrap up the lesson.

After a little bit more practice time, she returned to the front of the group to lay out the main activity portion of the lesson. “Now for a bit of fun…” the transfiguration professor remarked, offering a smile to the students as she waved her wand in the direction of the field besides which they had been sitting while learning. A disillusioned area slowly but surely materialized for all to see, showing two short poles spaced out to hold a line of students near them that marked out a starting line of sorts. Its mirrored finish line off in the distance marked with poles topped with small flags fluttering in the breeze. “Mr. Atreyu-Rehman and Mr. Grunt mentioned working in tandem with each other to continue working on Ferula and that is actually what we will be doing for the rest of class.”

Any ideas come to mind? Have you finally figured out why we are all outside?

“What I would like you to do is partner up,” Professor Stone began looking at the gathered students, some already clear to her that they would likely be working together. “Then with your opposite legs together, cast the bandaging charm to unite them…so we can have a nice three-legged race among your classmates!” Thankfully she had chosen a relatively level area of ground, well at least as level as she could find or make with minor improvements, for she had a feeling they would already be in danger of tripping over their own feet…if her experiences with her own siblings during her childhood were any indication. "Line up here when ready" the professor pointing at the starting line "... and then it's go!"



ooc: Great job so far! Now onto the fun part. You don’t need to wait for Aurora to start the race, just get bandaged up with your partner and go. Also, in case of not enough partners, act as if a non-named player is besides you traipsing along with you.

Feel free to do it in more than one post. We’ll wrap it all up and declare a winning team on Friday August 1st.
