"This class," Ignis began, with his usual, steady, you're definitely in for quite the lecture tone of voice at the front of the classroom, "has had a focus in two parts of home economics: caring for the home itself, be it in terms of cleaning, budgetary management, and basic upkeep and maintenance, as well as caring for the self in that home, with things like nutrition, cooking, and sexual health. But what about the care of others, not necessarily in the home, but also outside of it? A key and helpful componant for life that is useful for anyone to learn is basic first aid procedures, and that is what we will be focusing on today, from ensuring you have a well-stocked first aid kit on hand to something that could potentially save a life.

"Needless to say," he broke off with a faint wry smile, "there's quite a bit to cover today, so I hope I can have your undivided attention, because they will all be very useful tools to have And, by all means, should you wish for me to go over something in more detail or to go over it again to help you retain it better, please do not hesitate to ask. Let us then get started with the basics and your first aid kit..."

PE and Health Class; Friday, First Period [04/08].

Gladio was running the class solo that morning, but he certainly didn't feel compelled to explain the absense of his co-teacher to anyone. They might get a vague answer if they asked, but, for the most part, he was just continuing on with the lesson like normal, because they were here to be tortured get fit, not to speculate on the personal lives of their instructors.

"Now," Gladio started, getting things going with a lift of his hand as he talked as if to placate them to be open to today's lesson, "it'sbeen a while since we really brought this up or talked about it, but you'll hopefully remember some of the emphasis we've put on stretching before any physical activity to help keep yourself limber and prevent injuries throughout class. Flexibility and warmed-up muscles are a key factor in athletics that can often go overlooked, But sometimes, stretching can seem boring or a waste of time. Believe me. It isn't. And there's also lots of ways that stretching can actually be more beneficial than you realize, working on core muscle groups and strengthening them for better performance. And yoga is actually really great for that sort of thing. Not only that, but its got its roots in things like meditation and mindfulness, so while you're working on fine tuning all those muscles, you're also working on fine tuning your brain," he grinned at the class as he tapped his forehead, "and we could all use a little bit more of that, right?

"So let's do a quick warm-up and then I'm going to go over some of the more basic yoga positions, and if you guys feel you've got a good handle on that, I'll walk you through some ways to put them together in a sequence to really enhance to exeperience and the work out. They may not seem like much on the surface, but, believe me, guys, you'll be feeling it by the time we're done."

Or else, honestly, they were kind of just doing it wrong.

Drama, Friday, April 8, 2022

Anakin was running late because Rory had drunk all of the coffee before he'd gotten out of the shower, so Anakin was in a Mood.

(There was a reason the moose had made Anakin teach drama, after all.)

"Today we're going to work on emotions," Anakin declared. "Take something that happened to you this week and make it dramatic." He waved at the costumes. "You can use props, too."

Library - Friday

[onlyajones]

Jo was feeling a lot more comfortable compared to how she had been feeling last week and the books seemed to be more or less back to normal so she didn’t have any awkwardness to deal with there.

So she was looking forward to having a relatively easy shift now that her classes were over and she was focusing on reshelving the books that had she had to put away, which she seemed to have a few to put away so it was enough to keep her occupied for a while.
