Wizards, Trolls, and an Extremely Dangerous Sport
School is pure chaos—there’s a bathroom troll, a vanishing cloak mystery, and a suspiciously greasy-haired teacher. Somehow, our hero also becomes a sports legend without ever playing.
Improv Game: "Wizard School Drama" – Act out silly school scenes, from arguing with a talking hat to sneaking midnight snacks.
Project: Create a paper Sorting Hat with funny sorting messages and design your dream wizard school schedule.
