The Best Medicine: Humor - Class #6 - Period 6 - 10/10/06

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

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.

Talk Amongst Yourselves

Which neatly enough also covers class participation! Partner up here!

Lana looked around for a partner, hoping someone would come over to her as she didn't feel up to wandering around looking for someone.

She'd tried to pay good attention during the lesson, but mostly hoped her habit of taking good notes and keeping on top of things would be enough.

It was all she could do to keep herself upright and try not to be too disruptive with the whole sneezing and coughing thing.

Uh huh...like coughing and sneezing and looking like a cold victim was going to go unnoticed by the Fandom mother hen doctory type?

Not likely.

As he watched the kids do the nervous shift and wriggle, Wilson pushed himself up out of his chair, gathering up a cup of warm tea before heading in Lana's direction.

"Change in weather cold?"

Lana smiled wanly up at him. "Panther related cold, I'm afraid. He went right into the duck pond and when the duck nipped his ear he came back and tackled me. I got pretty wet, I'm afraid."

Wilson reached out and lightly pressed the back of his hand to her forehead, it was more to confirm what he could already see in fever bright eyes.

"And why are you in class today?" He asked with a sympathetic smile.

[ooc: OMG...I just modded a fever...smack me if that was incorrect. :D]

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

"Because I'm stubborn?" she asked with a very small smile. And went into a coughing jag.

Pippi looked around for somebody who seemed to need a partner.

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"Hey Pippi," Cally said. "Need a partner?"

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"Hey Cally! Ya! I do."

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"Well, I need one too, actually," she said. "So, partnering up? Good idea?"

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

Greg glanced around casually, looking for someone who needed a partner.

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

Lana looked over at Greg, trying not to look too much like some who'd escaped from a contagion ward in a hospital. "Do you need a partner," she managed to ask before she sneezed again.

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[like-a-sponge.livejournal.com]

Greg nodded, looking concerned. "You okay?"

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

Lana nodded. "Just a nasty cold. Dr. Wilson already gave me a hard time about it."

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[bigfat-peter.livejournal.com]

Peter looked like he was glancing around for a partner but in reality he was actually trying to think of how many words rhymed with "boob".

Talk to Dr. Wilson

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

He's down at his desk if you need him.

OOC -

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

Auditors...yuck!

Re: OOC -

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

AUDITORS WOE. We're not burdened with them this month but yay for closing books. Ugh.

I'm all non-participatey this week unless you really need me to, though . . .

Re: OOC -

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

Auditors, massive woe!

If you see an oppertunity to pair up with someone, that would be all that's needed? :)
