Second Years Lesson Three [Trip Jinx]

Professor Adler was happy with the way her lessons were turning out, and even though she was already 75% of the way through the school year, the woman felt as though her students were making good progress. She waited for them to take their usual seats, before getting straight into things. "Good morning everyone! Today will be learning another new spell, one that is prevalent in the dueling tournament." These spells often were, but it was still the case. "We will be going through the Trip Jinx, which as you can imagine is good for tripping up your opponent," thankfully a lot of the spells they used, the clue was in the name.

"The Trip Jinx might sound fun, and good for using as a prank, but it also has to be used respectfully. If you're not practicing it in class, then it should only be used in duels." Professor Adler didn't want to see students casting at each other in the corridors, willy nilly. "For this lesson I want you to make your way toward the dummy and practice this spell on it. You can also practice the Jelly-Legs Jinx again from last week if you'd like, but this week I want everyone to at least have a go at casting the spells." Usually students could choose whether to do a practical or theorical lesson, but given that it was clear why someone would want to trip up another person, Geo thought it would be better for the students to use their wands instead of their pens this time round.

Aiya had to admit that she wasn’t as excited about her classes as she thought she would be. Most of them were boring and she was starting to feel a little trapped as she had no other choice but to attend them. She found that the best way to distract herself was writing letters back and forth to her family. The owls in the owlery were certainly very familiar with her now that she knew how to send the letters herself. She had just finished sending a letter and headed back down to attend her classes.

Aiya entered the Defence Against The Dark Arts classroom and reverted her attention to the front of the room where the professor was speaking to them. When instructed, she made her way over to the dummy. She firstly cast the jelly-legs jinx as a warm up and she was delighted when this worked on the dummy first go. She then tried the Trip jinx as instructed. This was a little more challenging, but she managed to do it and she was pleased with herself. When the lesson ended, Aiya left the classroom to head straight to her next class.
