One of the things I like to do with my students after they can get around the sky a little on their own is to have them go up fairly high and just do what ever they want. I normally do this after a couple of flights that day, it's their play time.

Of course before you do this you better be sure YOU can recover what they do. Also let them know that if you get scared that you will take over.

You will be surprised how much they will learn on their own doing this. Just don't let them do it anytime THEY want, keep the training schedule.
