Flying Third Lesson
 

Paul walked out onto the pitch again and began setting out brooms and balls and what not. The rain had lightened up into just a small drizzle. He stood and waited for the students to show up.




OOC: Sorry everyone it's been a pretty bad week, so I completely forgot about class! Don't worry, it'll be open for a while.

srimathi walked down the quidditch pitch.

Davina came down to the pitch for her third lesson."Hey Professor!"she said smiling at him.Flying lessons was her favourite class apart from DADA.

Paul nodded politely to the students. "Hello there. No, no. I'm fine meself. Just grab a broom and get comfortable until the other students arrive."

hi im saeda she said
to srimathi.

ok professor
hi, erm shall we fly together then???//////
she really wanted to help him.
she grabbed a broom and began to do laps around the pitch
occ:-is that what you said??fly noe??/

saeda heard the proffesor
say she could get an early start
so saeda mounted on her broom and flew
round in a circle at the same speed as
srimathi,she tried to go faster than the other girl
as if this was a race.

Paul looked at the stduents as they began flying around. "Hey now there, I didn't mean start flyin' around. Why don't ye just relax until the class starts, but don't fly around there, ok?"

srimathi began to increase her speed to raise saeda.she saw that the other girl was left alone so went towards her and introduced herself
hi im srimathi

oh ok saeda replied
sitting down quietly.So proffesor what

srimathi heard the professor and came down

she said smiling happily.
Why dont you sit down here
saeda said to srimathi pointing to a patch of grass.

ok said srimathi she walked towards saeda and sat down

So what have you been up to,
at hogwarts saeda asked.

Marissa walked onto the quitage pitch. "Hello professor!" she said with a smile.

Melany walked to the pitch and sat down on the grass, waiting for class to start.

Allie strolled out onto the pitch. She waited excitedly for the class to begin. She looked around and saw afew people also waiting.

Hermy walked out onto the pitch smiling, she loved learning how to fly and the fact that today's drizzly weather was 100% better than that of the last lesson made her feel even more cheerful. Noticing others waiting, she joined the small group and taking a small band off her wrist, tied up her hair so that it wouldn't distract her whilst in the air.

Seeing that most of the students that were going to show up had arrived, Paul stepped to the middle of the pitch, broom in hand and addressed them. "Alright then everyone, I'm glad enough that the term has been as good as it has to everyone. Now then, today we'll be learning the final lesson of flying basics: flying with one hand." He mounted his broom, and motioned for everyone to do the same.
"Now then. Controlling the broom with one hand is important for playing quidditch as well as being able to fly while say, carrying groceries. It's easy enough." He held his broom with only one hand. "You simply grab the broom with whichever your better hand is, I'm a leftie, so. Then keep yer other hand free. Now, I want everyone to try it and make a few laps around the pitch. Go slowly and no playin' about. I don't want anyone getting hurt. Are there any questions then?"

Davina mounted her broom and kicked off,holding on with one hand.Her right hand.She began flying off at a moderate pace down the pitch.Before gradually picking up speed.

Marissa mounted her broom, went into the air and than slowly let go 1 hand. She wobbled a bit at first and than was very steady. She did a lap around the pitch.

Erin nervously kicked off the ground and let go with her left hand. She began to move forward very slowly, trying to get the feel for controlling the broom with one hand.

Hermy got onto her broom as she had been taught previously, and hovered just above the ground as she decided what hand to use. She was naturally left handed, but played many sports right-handed. Thining about Quidditch, she decided to try and leave her left hand free, as this would be the most likely hand that she would use for passing or holding the bat with if she were to try out next term. She leant forward slightly to pick up a little pace, and carefully manouvred around the pitch using only the one hand.
