 Unforgivably Cursed | adultescent
Several more students seemed to be joining the few who asked to be exempt from the war game, which Eloise could understand. It was quite the serious and impacting event, and she had already been rather surprised with the lighthearted methods it would be taught. Or at least it seemed that way. She supposed she should wait to see the actual activity before judging. But she also thought that those sitting out should be provided some sort of alternate activity, not that she would suggest it during class. It was Professor Marchand's domain after all and she wasn't about to undermine her authority here.
She thought Charlotte had a rather insightful suggestion, smart girl that she was. And she noticed that young Anastasiya was now among those opting out. Eloise gave her a warm smile as she caught her eye. She must have missed her when she first arrived, but it was somewhat dark in here after all.
An essay? Eloise was again quite surprised with the turn of events. Essays certainly had their place in class. She thought that had the potential to be more educational and critical thought inspiring than a balloon fight, depending on how it was presented and constructed. But... to present the class with a "fun" activity and then take it away to do something more structured, because a few didn't want to participate, would likely cause quite a bit of protest. Which, unsurprisingly, it did.
She supposed what surprised her most is that the professor would change her whole lesson plan rather than have an alternative activity for just those who didn't want to participate with good reason. She had hoped the instructors here would have more confidence in their own teaching abilities. Eloise jotted down a few more thoughts in her notes, but she was interested in how Rosalyn would handle the rest of the lesson before she could comment fully.
