Pause Class
Pause Class covers the Pause Game, taught by Mr. Rrr-Tökk-Tökk. The rules are exact.
When someone shouts 'Pause!', everyone in the room freezes completely still, the shouter included. Nobody may move again until the shouter shouts 'Play!'. Crucially, the shouter must hold their breath the whole time; if they breathe before saying 'Play!', the Pause is broken and everyone can move. Each person may shout 'Pause!' only once per day, and may do it whenever they want.
It is not a modern invention. The first recorded occurrence was in ancient Hipposwotania in 467 BC.
