SUMMER 2022 (SESSON 1) WORKSHOP SIGN-UPS

[heroic_jawline]

Good morning/afternoon/evening everyone! It's time to sign up for your First Session Summer 2022 Workshops! These sign-ups are for both NEW and RETURNING students, and in our new tradition for the summer, the workshops are open to EVERYONE: students, teachers, and townies. YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY. Please read the following before you start signing up:

1) Teacher and Student Class Expectations! The all important guideline for what is expected of the players in Fandom High. Please give it a once-over even if you've seen it in some form or other before - consider it a good thing to click and read while I put up the OCD!

2) Japanese characters, please sign up in the Western style - given name, then family name - to make our alphabetical OCDing easier.

The Important Stuff About Signing Up For Classes

1) Since we've removed the cap on characters, we have also removed the cap on the number of classes your characters can sign up for, but please consider your RL ability to keep up before chucking a character at every class we're offering.

2) If you're a TA for a class, you need to sign up for that class. It will count towards your minimum 2. (Not you, recent grads.) Please note TA-ship in the sign-up for easy of making the class lists accurate. Teachers: please refrain from having your own character act as the TA as it defeats the purpose of having a back-up player to post for you!

3) If it's OOC for your character to take a class but you really want to take it anyway, just sign them up and we'll pretend it was an IG paperwork mishap.

4) If you sign up, please, please try to show up. It lets the mods judge if you're still in the game and it makes the work the teachers are putting into coming up with something fun to interact with so worth it.

5) Class descriptions are subject to change at the teacher's discretion.

6) To be fair to people in all time-zones, sign-ups are not first-come, first-serve.

And now we get to what you really want to see: Summer Workshops! (Session 1)!!!!

FH class sign-ups will close at 11:59pm Eastern on Friday, May 6th, 2022, and are IG knowledge at the Welcome Picnic.

General FYI: Feel free to make changes to your class choices as long as you do it before the deadline. We use the final pings in each thread to make the class lists, not the email notifs. Questions or difficulties, please email us - fandomhighadmins (@) iambicnut.com - or drop a question in the Questions thread down below.

PLEASE HOLD WHILE I OCD, ESPECIALLY YOU, BRIDGEY. CARRY ON.

MONDAY

[heroic_jawline]

MON: Period 1: Aphra & Isabela: Disaster! Or Opportunity, Actually?

[heroic_jawline]

The difference between success and failure, between disaster and opportunity, are all a matter of perspective, and time, and sometimes spin. Anyway, join two highly capable women used to snatching flawless victory from the jaws of certain defeat and learn their secrets.

[heroic_jawline]

What could possibly make something like the Art of Napping extreme? Take this workshop to find out! ♥ ♥ ♥

MON: Period 3: Sims: Catching up on Pop Culture

[heroic_jawline]

Primarily a place for those who have come forward in time or from another world, and those who have been living under a rock (or in a horrible reality) for at least a few years. We will experience current literature, movies, music, and online culture in order to catch up to 2022.

MON: Rogers & Stark: Paintball

[heroic_jawline]

Do you have excellent aim, far too much energy, and a need to exact vengeance on your fellow islanders in a semi-wholesome way once a week? This, my friend, is your class.

TUESDAY

[heroic_jawline]

TUE: Period 1: Gooseman: A Beginner’s Guide to Mechanical Engineering

[heroic_jawline]

This class will focus on the practical side of mechanical engineering, with a new project each week to serve as an introduction to a specific topic

TUE: Period 2: Solo: Flight & Flying

[heroic_jawline]

In this class you'll try your hand at different methods of flight, from this world and others. This is open to experts as well as beginners- there should be something new for everyone.

TUE: Period 3: Gingrich: Choose Your Own Adventure: The Fandom LARP Project 1.0

[heroic_jawline]

Denizens of Fandom! We're going on an adventure, and you get to be part of it. Now's your chance to help create, and then run, a LARP. It's collaborative storytelling, but summer camp style: each week, you'll get to help shape the story and create your characters, all leading up to the Big Event in the final week. Brainstorm ideas, make costumes and props, work together and see what kind of wacky adventure comes out of it!

TUE: Period 4: Sidon: Underwater Basket Weaving and Other Aquatic Arts!

[heroic_jawline]

It's summer, and that means wonderfully warm weather, spectacularly sunny skies, and as good a time as any to enjoy the plentiful bounties of the sea and all the water has to offer! In this course, you will be lead by none other than I! Sidon! The Zora Prince! In all the delightful dalliance of the deep! Weave baskets....underwater! Swimming...also underwater! There shall be fishing! Waterfall diving! Even ARTS AND CRAFTS of the shiniest, most water-worthy variety! The options are as vast as the wonderous ocean itself, though we shall, alas, have but a short time to explore them! So join me on a fantastic exploration of watery fun for everyone!!!

WEDNESDAY

[heroic_jawline]

~SHENANIGANS~

Anakin's team-building ridiculousness will return. No need to sign up (I'll put a sign-up post in OOC every Saturday), but if you have camp-adjacent team-building activity ideas, put 'em here.

Re: WEDNESDAY

[designateddadfriend]

Dodge "ball"?

IF YOU CAN DODGE A WRENCH YOU CAN DODGE A BALL!

THURSDAY

[heroic_jawline]

THU: Period 1: Cara & Jaskier: Driving: From Woe to Go

[heroic_jawline]

An intensive introductory course designed to take you from absolute beginner to expert over the course of seven weeks.

THU: Period 2: Blackstone: Blacksmith Basics

[heroic_jawline]

Weapons!

If that got your attention, odds are, you know 'em, you use 'em, and you love 'em. But do you know much about the art of actually making them? Blacksmithing is a time-honored trade that takes a whole lot more than a seven-week summer workshop to master, but, hey, it's not a bad place to start! We'll have a chance to learn all about forging steel, shaping it, various different techniques and blades, proper care and maintenance, and the opportunity to walk out with a weapon crafted by your very own hands at the end of it. And, even if you don't get that far, you'll still get to work with fire and hit things, so it's still a win!

THU: Period 3: Diaz: Yoga

[heroic_jawline]

It's yoga. If you don't know what that is, take it anyway, it'll be hilarious.

FRIDAY

[heroic_jawline]

FRI: Period 1: Smith: Ancient Food Crimes

[heroic_jawline]

For almost as long as humanity has needed food for sustitence and, with the discovery of fire, realized they could manipulate and alter it in various ways, there have been recipes and dishes that really stop and make you ask yourself, "But why???" In this class, we will explore some of the most egregious examples of horrible food ideas from the long bygone eras of the 1950s, '60s, and '70s, with the occasional glance back even further into time basically immemorial in desperate search for some kind of answer.

And who knows? Maybe our ancient ancestors were really onto something with some of these horrors.

Probably not.

But maybe! Let's find out together!

FRI: Period 2: Stark: Cupcakes

[heroic_jawline]

Welcome to another round of cupcake baking with weekly themes!

FRI: Period 3: Beaker: Extremely Safe Science With Beaker

[heroic_jawline]

Explore the Wonders of Science with Beaker! We will conduct Extremely Safe Experiments With No Chance of Explosions!*


*the school board absolutely does not guarantee no chance of explosions and will not be held liable for limb loss, extraneous limb growth, spontaneous combustion, not so spontaneous combustion, or any other attack of cartoon physics.

FRI: Period 4: Beniko: Cooperating with People you Hate

[heroic_jawline]

Sometimes you have to work with people you don't agree with, and it's best if you learn not to kill them in the process. Each week the class will be assigned opposing viewpoints, and then undergo a task that they must complete as a group.

QUESTIONS

[heroic_jawline]

If you have 'em!

OOC

[heroic_jawline]

We went one place for two days and now alll of us have colds. This sucks.

Re: OOC

[designateddadfriend]

My real estate agent -- with whom my whole family spent a not insignificant amount of time over the weekend -- called out sick on my pre-inspection this morning.

NAH SURE THIS IS ALL VERY FINE.
