The Best Medicine: Humor - Class #6 - Period 6 - 10/10/06
There were more bits of fruit and cheese and fresh apple cider for today’s class as well as some tea. Wilson sat behind the desk, sipping on cider and going over his notes as he waited for the class to file in and settle down.
“Good afternoon. All right for today’s class we’re going to have a review of the past five classes in anticipation of your first test which will be administered next Tuesday the 17th. Please, remember that tests are worth 15% of your final grade and 0s do not look good just before Parents Weekend.”
Giving them all a knowing grin, Wilson launched into a fairly substantial review of the classes from the prior weeks. Working from week one forward, he carefully mapped out questions from week two, week three, week four and finally week five.
After the review, Wilson hopped up on the desk and gave the class a quick smile.
“All right, some house keeping duties. First off, I am thrilled to announce that three of your fellow classmates will be giving us a little show at the school assembly being held on the 27th of this month. Please plan to attend and point and laugh cheer them on.”
Grin!
“Secondly, the field trip to Las Vegas, November 10th through the 12th, please let me know if you have a conflict with those dates so that a secondary project can be assigned.”
Reaching he took a sip of cider and then slid down off the desk and went back around to the chair.
“Finally, I want you to use the rest of this class time to pair up for your projects. Please remember this project is going to be worth 20% of your final grade. The project is fairly straight forward. I’m going to want you and your partner to find and write up a recount of a humorous happening here in Fandom. It can be anything from jell-o dragons to the time a student was hit with a love spell and tried to date everyone. Just so long as it is an example of Fandom’s unique quirkiness. I will need to have names of groups before you leave class today. Homework, of course is to study and I will be here if you have any questions or concerns.”
With a wave of his hand, he gave the class permission to begin chatting amongst themselves to find and to partner up.
