Professor Shackleton was hovering a few feet from the ground when she heard John's question, "Yes, up in the air. We're going to begin!"

Couldn't he just run very quickly down to the gems and pick one up then run back, he could run very quickly. But he had a feeling they had to fly, and that meant a visit for the Healer after.

Raising his hand he asked, "Does it matter what height we fly at? I'm a horrible flyer professor and don't want to fall off and hurt myself." he said shyly, not looking around at the others.

Turning her attention to William, "No, you can choose to fly at whatever height you'd like, though I ask you not to go too high. The object is to be quick and correct, so going too high will just waste time. But if you're concerned about falling, I suggest a low height. This is supposed to be fun, so go at your own pace if you're still unsure on your flying." She smiled encouragingly before turning her attention back to the rest of the class.

"OK, so are we ready?" Macadrian pulled a bag of gemstones from the pocket of her robes and with a flick of her wand, they were jumping out of the bag and zooming to the end of the pitch, where they hovered gently, catching and reflecting sunlight. She then pulled a number of color swatches from her other pocket and sent them to the other end of the pitch. With everything in position, she was ready to begin.

"We're going to start with an easy one. The keyword is... SUCCESS! GO!"
