Underwater Basket Weaving and Other Aquatic Arts!; Monday, Third Period [05/29].

[in_sidon_we_trust]

"Good morning, everyone!" As would be usual for this class, Sidon greeted his students with a bright smile and a pump of his fist at their meeting spot on the beach, where a a nice bonfire for warming up by afterwards already awaited them. "Today, I would like to propose to you all a question: is having fun an art? I know what my thoughts on the matter are, but let's find out today, with some fun water games!

"Since we're a bit of a smaller class, I have just one water game we are going to focus on, but that means you'll have plenty of time to play or we'll open up the opportunity for you to share some of your own favorite water games! I'll explain more about the game before we get started, but first, let us stretch, so that our muscles and bodies are ready for the most fun to be had!

Stretching was very important! And he felt it gave everyone the chance to really get pumped for class!

"And then everybody into the water!"

Warm up and Stretching! - Underwater Basket Weaving!, 05/29.

No unexpected cramping here! Time to get those limbs all lean and limber, chat it up a little as you do so, or if you'd like Sidon to go over any swimming things (or anything at all, really!) before getting into the water, he'll be more than happy to help!

Class Activity: Zora Zora Game! - Underwater Basket Weaving, 05/29.

[in_sidon_we_trust]

"Our game today," Sidon explained, once everyone was warmed up and ready to go in the water, "is one that is incredibly popular with little Zora hatchlings called Zora Zora! Which means that it is not only a great deal of fun, but it is also nice and simple. Essentially, one person is chosen to be 'It.' That person must close their eyes....and keep them closed!...and counts to ten. Meanwhile, the others will scatter, and when the count is up, the person designated as your fearless Seeker shall try to find them. While they must keep their eyes closed until they manage to snag someone, they can use audio cues by shouting out," and here Sidon filled up his chest so that his shout could be very bold and impressive, "'ZORA!' And the others must respond back with a hearty 'ZORA!' in kind, and the person who is It can then use those shouts to guide their search!

"It's not quite echo-location, but it's the closest thing we've got! Now!"

Sidon pumped his fist and grinned toothily at them all. "Any volunteers to be our first Seeker?"

So, yeah, it's basically a Hyrule version of Marco Polo, because Sidon doesn't even know who TF that is.

Everyone can have a turn at being It if they want, just start a thread with your person being It, and everyone else can go from there!

"Oooh! Ooooh!" Graham lifted his hand and waved it eagerly in the air, because of course he'd be the first to put himself out there as a volunteer. "I'll do it! I'll be it!"

And before anyone could argue, he whipped around so his back was to the others as he clamped his hands over his eyes and started the countdown so the others could start scattering.

Belle smiled at Graham, though of course he couldn't see her right now, and called out "this should be fun!" before quickly splashing away.

Class Activity: Other Aquatic Games - Underwater Basket Weaving, 05/29.

Do you know of any simple, easy Aquatic Games to share with the class? Let everyone know here, and we'll give it a try! Or just continue playing more Zora Zora!

Talk to the Teacher - Underwater Basket Weaving, 05/29.

[in_sidon_we_trust]

As much as Sidon would like to have participated himself, he will be acting strictly as referee and keeping an eye out for everyone's safety, especially in the case of the less confident swimmers, but he certainly is available should anyone need to speak with him more directly!
