Taking a nametag and a marker from the Professor's cup, she wrote down her information and stuck the sticker onto her robes.

Then she found a seat and sat down. The Professor said not to get too comfortable so Jasmine wondered what she had planned for the class.
"Pleasure to meet you, Jasmine and what a lovely name!" See, this is why the nametags. Though she knew most of the students who'd taken Muggle Studies before there were lots of new transfers, so best to just make everyone rather than single out the new people.

But what were they going to be doing today that wouldn't have them in the classroom? They'd still be in the castle, right? Because she didn't think she could stand being outside.

Anyway, she took one of the name tags and a marker with a "Hello, professor," and hurriedly took a seat, filling out the tag.

"Hello Layla! Welcome back!" See, she remembered her prior students, even those who'd only been with her a year...

Most people dread coming to muggle studies, but nope not Zander! This was probably the easiest class to actually follow.

"Hi Professor! How are you doing?" he asked her as he grabbed one of the markers and a tag. He kneeled next to the doorway, but far enough to the side so that the doorway wasn't blocked. Writing his name as carefully as he could, he got back onto his feet and stuck the tag on his black robes. He even drew a deliberate little lion in the corner. Rawr.
And another unfamiliar face, so not completely unjust and definitely easier than having them state their name before answering a question. "Wonderful, thank you!" Considering today's lesson plans, how could she not be?

Maybe that was a good sign.


Or maybe she was squib.

Did they let squibs teach at Hogwarts? He took a marker and a name tag introducing himself as he wrote down his name and year. "I'm..."
And another new student; well new to Muggle Studies at least, she recalled seeing his face around the castle last term. "Likewise ...." she beamed back as he introduced himself. "Cutty."

Angel went over and sat down and then saw a name tag, what was going on here were the back at Primary School well Angel thought that it would be cool to wear the name tag so she put it on.
"Morning," Fina offered in return, to another newcomer.

And a returning student! She smiled though at his comment. "Excellent to hear, Mister Toussaint." Perhaps the attention thing was cause he realized his OWL exams were looming nearer? Either way, paying attention was always a good thing.

Her sister most likely wouldn't have been down for it anyways.

Grabbing a marker and tag, she hastily scribbled down the needed information. Deciding that she would sit next to her sister this time, AJ plopped down at a desk closest to her.
Blink, blink. Was she seeing double? Fina frowned glancing from the girl before to another who'd just entered moments prior. How come no one informed her there were identical twins coming to Hogwarts this year? That would've been NICE to know. And both Lions too; Merlin, she felt bad for Seren.

"Hello, welcome!" She replied finally, shaking herself out of her reverie.

"Hey, AJ,''
the third year said as he slipped into the seat beside his friend. He quickly filled out the necessary information on the tag:
Ah, one of her best students was back again. "Hello, Adi, welcome back," she smiled at the young Hufflepuff, as she took a seat.

But, having heard quite a bit about this woman here, he was quite interested to come here and see what she was like as a Professor. Juuuuuuust because.

So, the fourth year made his way down the first floor corridor and over towards the Muggle Studies classroom, where the woman was standing by the door. Uh huh. Was this a normal thing over at this school? Probably. He couldn't tell just yet. "Hello Professor," he said, once he reached the door of the classroo--

....................... They had to wear NAME TAGS?! Name tags on their ROBES?! What in the name of merlin?

Er. This was weird. MERLIN. Grayson grabbed a name tag and took a blue marker, giving the woman a nod as a way of saying thanks. He then headed over towards an empty seat near Cutty and gave him a nod and a "Hey!" in greeting before sitting down. Right. Lets fill out this bad boy.


Done. Filled out. And onto his robes it went.

This was still freaking weird.
What was that LOOK when he saw nametags? From a new student too. Really. Did he not see that this was easier than stating names before speaking? Figures he had on Slytherin robes this one.

"Hello there ..." she waited, as he filled out the nametag, since he hadn't introduced himself. "Grayson."

Now after he wrote down his name he stuck it to his robes as he went to go sit in a seat.
See now that there's a nice polite student; a returning one too and one of her best. "Morning Bay," she nodded at him.

When she reached the door she was delighted to see the professor holding a cup of markers. Were they going to COLOR? YAY! Accepting a name tag excitedly, she bid the professor a quick "Hello!" before bouncing over to a desk to decorate her tag.


Drawing a few flowers around her name, Norah stuck the tag to the front of her robes and slid into her seat. She bounced a few more times because COLORING YAY. Even someone as old and wise as eleven can enjoy coloring, yep.
Ooh, one of her new Hufflepuffs, whom she hadn't had the pleasure of meeting yet! Beaming at her energy, she smiled back. "Hello there! Welcome!" Ooh, lovely flowers too. Quite the artistic one, Fina noted.

Grabbing one of the nametags and a marker, the boy entered the room completely and found a seat near the middle

Placing his school bag down on the ground beside his chair, Kevin began to write his name on the label.

When he was done he stuck it to his uniform near his chest and leaned back in his chair, on two legs.
Fina nodded at another returning student who entered quietly and politely filled out the nametag but then was leaning back in his chair ...... oh no he was not doing the thing that was like a teacher's biggest pet peeve. REALLY?? Innocently watching him, she inconspicuously and non-verbally cast a spell to push the chair back just a little bit more....

Don't get too comfortable? Ohh--did that mean class was going to end early?! WOOT! Sophie took a seat and filled out her name tag.



She peeled it off the backing and stuck it to her robes.
.... and then turned her attention towards another student; the female Newell! She knew this one too! Fina gave her a brief nod and smile. Now where was the male half?

Okay, so they were leaving soon. Schuyler interpreted this as a good thing because when they left the classroom, they did fun things like play bumper car games. So, she ran her hand back through her hair and crossed her legs as she claimed a seat.

Now, nametag.

She really did have lovely penmanship.
"Hello, Schuyler. Welcome back!" Fina nodded at the seventh year.

"Hello Professor," he greeted the woman out of politeness and with an afterthought added quietly. "Welcome back." She had been missing at the opening feast so now was the first time he had seen her. Though he might be seeing her later about a certain Hufflepuff of hers. He took an offered name tag and wrote it out, adding it to his robe as he moved to take a seat however temporary.

No Ben and certainly not Benny. Just plain Benjamin his given name thank you.
Aw ...... someone remembered at gave her a welcome back; since unless they'd been at breakfast the morning of return, most probably hadn't seen her since June. "Hello there, Ben, and thank you."

So here he was, smiling and looking a little more distracted than usual, but otherwise perfectly present and correct.

"Hi Professor Hadley!" the Hufflepuff beamed at his Head of House as he entered the room. "S'good to see you back."

Toby took the nametag from her and went to go claim a seat by the window. He quickly wrote Toby, Fourth Year on his tag and stuck it to his chest, just above the Hufflepuff logo on his robes.
And another welcome back ........ Well sorta. "Hello Tobias! Thank you and it's good to be back and see you as well!"

As she entered the class, Abbi nodded towards the Professor. "Hello, Professor." Beam. She then took her name tag and marker as she skimmed for a place to sit.

OHHH. Would you look who was here? Why Hello Grayson Potato...and Cutty too. Cutty got beams, but Grayson...he got sassy eyes. The third year plonked straight beside Grayson and quickly waved towards Cutty.

Hehehehehehehe. She grabbed her marker and in BIG BOLD letters scribbled the word 'LOSER'. Then with a pat on Grayson's back she stuck the tag to his back, all sneakily of course. "Hello, Grayson." INNOCENT smile. "I think you spelled your name wrong in that tag." But the back tag was spelled PERFECTLY.

Such a pity she'd 'lost' her tag so soon, or was it? Hehehehehehehe
"Hello, Abbi. Welcome back," she smiled at the Gryffindor as she took a seat and watched her curiously as she stuck her nametag on the back of the Slytherin. It seemed she wasn't the only shifty one in the room - so clearly she could just blame it on the Gryffindor.

Taking a seat beside Bay, she smiled at him. "Hey there!" Surely he was looking forward to this class like she was. Filling out the name tag, she stuck it to her robes.

Another of her best students! Beaming at the third year when she entered, she greeted her back as well, "Welcome back, Lux." And smiled in amusement when she crossed out her nametag and wrote a nickname.

Ah, there was the male Newell; she knew he couldn't be far behind his sister. "Hello, Caleb," she returned his greeting.

So, this probably won't be anything new to him. His life had been almost perfectly balanced with Muggle and Wizard things. Who knows, though. Hogwarts can probably bring something new.

He took a label and scribbled down his name on it.


Sticking the label on himself, he looked around to see if there was anyone he really talked to. Nope. Any seat it is, then.
Noting another quiet student, she made careful note of his name on his nametag, because she didn't know this student...

As he entered the classroom, he broke into a smile that stretched from ear to ear. There she was. Professor Hadley!!....and there was Jasmine too!!

Walking over to the Professor, he greeted her with a smile. "Hello Professor. Congratulations on the newest addition to your family, and welcome back to Hogwarts. Sander also asked me to say hello for him too,"Cris told Professor Hadley before taking a marker and a name plate from her desk, and filling out his information.
Ah ... another Strand, Fina quickly deduced from his familiar but new face, as he wrote his name on the label. Clearly explained how he knew of her pregnancy. "Hello there and thank you! Welcome to Hogwarts yourself, as well as Hufflepuff." Like brother, like brother? They were brothers, right?

Then, she started writing her name on her name tag, embroidered with flowers and dots and lines and pretty stuff.
Heh. There was something with Hufflepuffs and flowers? Was she drawing Marigold flowers too? Symbolism and all. Beaming at the fourth year, she greeted her back. "Hello there, Marigold! Welcome back!"

In the end one thing was abundantly clear, she was not meant for the kitchen.

Also, the Gryffindor was staring, in a similar fashion to the staring back in Diagon Alley when she saw the VERY PREGNANT PROFESSOR, who was not pregnant anymore.....

"Hello Professor Hadley....................................how's the baby?" Was she allowed to ask? Did you have to be a Badger to know because she and Grayson had seen. Did the boy even remember? Lex grabbed a quill from her bag and got to the name plate, her attention split between writing and the Professor who'd never bothered to TELL her. Wasn't like she'd had plastered it all over the Aparecium. Who did that anyway?
..........................

She felt horribly guilty when Alexa had seen her and stared that fateful afternoon in Diagon Alley. HORRIBLE way for her student to find out, but the Gryffindor should have used her bravery and NON-SHYNESS to come over to her and talk to her instead of just stare. Really.

Like now; she wasn't afraid of speaking now. But seeing her in London created feelings of shyness? Oh well. She'd get over it; probably after this lesson.

"Hello, Alexa...." No Prefect Cambridge this time. ".... The baby boy is great, thanks."

SPOILER!!: Name tag
Mr. Unicorn
Seventh Year


And yes, Tag was being serious about the Mr. Unicorn thing.
Another sarcastic one. Shaking her head at his nickname on his label, she smiled at Tag. Yes, she knew his name, of course, but did he not realize it was for the OTHER students. And she didn't want to single out those who she didn't know, so she just made it uniform, because there was a mix of known and unknown students here...

"Hello Professor," Hayden said cheerfully when she walked into the room. She found an empty desk and sat down. Don't get too comfortable? Were they going somewhere? Hayden shrugged and grabbed a name tag and the pen she'd brought along. It was purple.
Like this one. Unknown. It was a lot of unknown. Seriously; Gryffindors, thinking they were the center of everything.

"Hello there, welcome," she beamed at the first year.

That 'Welcome back' sounded as if they were receiving the woman from the Janus Thickey ward at St. Mungo's.

To not get comfortable? Then why was Lotus here? And where were they going? Interesting.

Did she need to write her name as well? Well, whatever. Fine.

Not even 'Lotus Wisteria'. Why? Because after two years, if you don't know her name, then you don't even deserve the 'Lotus' status. Airey, however, could refer to her as 'Lottie', but didn't. How come?

Also, LOL! Tag's... tag.

.....Wow, did she just realize that?

"Hello there, Lotus and thank you! It's good to be back." She beamed at the sixth year, ignoring the fact that she didn't write 'Lotus Wisteria' on her nametag. Because she knew this one's name.

She did, though, respect the Muggle Studies professor for that kind act from last term, so instead of putting up a sour front, she was pretty neutral.

It was only when she reached the professor at the door that she grinned timidly. "Hello, Professor Hadley," greeted, taking a name tag and marker, ogling them as she went inside. It'd better not ruin her robes.

Writing her name and year on it, she stuck the tag onto her robes.
Another of her best students. "Hello there, Beverly! Welcome back!" she beamed at the Slytherin.

Plus Demelza had some radtastic Muggle outfits that she would be more than willing to show off. But there she was walking through the doorway, clad in her boring and uninspiring uniform.

"Welcome back, Professor Hadley!" the young actress-to-be said enthusiastically, in spite of her outfit. A blank name tag was then handed over to her. At first Demelza was confused. Surely Hadley hadn't forgotten her name, even though she had only been at Hogwarts for a term. But then she heard the professor say that there were some newbies in the class. Well, that made sense. So the seventh year took a marker from the cup and wrote down her name ... and year. This was her last first Muggle Studies class ever. Oh, the sadness!

Photos!: Demelza's name tag
Pleased with her handiwork, she put the marker back into the cup and stuck the name tag on her robes. Now where to sit? Hmm. After taking a quick glance around the room, she decided to sit behind Cris so she could stare at the back of his pretty head and waited for the lesson to begin.
"Thanks, Demelza," she greeted back, not QUITE as enthusiastic as the seventh year, sadly.

And another newcomer; Fina nodded at the new young Ravenclaw, as she quietly took a seat. Hopefully these students would warm up once the lesson started?

She wasn't entirely sure.

Regardless, there she was, saluting the professor and accepting a name tag as she entered. "Hi professor." Interesting way to learn names, she thought, but it was much more suitable than the woman having to hear dozens of new students chime their names over the span of a few minutes. Of course there was no way the professor could retain that information, right? She obediently scribbled her information down on the name tag with a marker and stuck it on her chest.

Third Year

Easy enough. New class, new seating opportunities... hmm. There was a Tobes present, so naturally, Soph hurried over to snag the seat right behind him by the windows and nudged him gently to give him a 'sup' nod. Hehe. Hi, Tobes.
The other third year Sophie was here! Because yes, even though this one hadn't been in her classes before, she knew her from Quidditch reasons, even if she didn't really know her. But now she could!

"Hi Sophie! Welcome!"

So her actual name it was.

Still felt weird writing that sometimes. But the name tag was now stuck to her robes, so she just had to wait for class to start.
Was it just her or were there quite a few seventh years this term? "Hello, Penelope," she greeted to the Gryffindor, reminiscing for just a moment, how it felt like just yesterday the Ravenclaw Greenwell was graduating. My how time flies.

But, whatever, he was ready. Also, didn't hurt that Hadley was fit. Real fit. Nice to look at.

Anyway. He smiled all hazy-like-- 'cause he was ready-- and easily complimented Hadley, "Hello Professor. You look lovely." And she did.

Ah. Seat. He took one of those. Not before jotting down his name real quick.
Well wasn't someone just up for flattering the professor today? But didn't he learn by now that flattery gets one nowhere? Actually, he probably hadn't.

"Hello Ascanius," she greeted back, simply acknowledging the latter comment with a nod of appreciation.

He hopped that Muggle Studies would be easy considering the fact that he knew Muggle stuff. So...easy right?

Taking a seat somewhere at the front the Ravenclaw very carefully and neatly wrote out his name. Name tags were AWESOME.
Oh Merlin. She was definitely getting old. Considering it seemed like YESTERDAY when Dash Scabior was teaching History of Magic and had brought his son in .... and now said-son was a FIRST YEAR?!? LIKE how? She sighed, thinking that would be her in eleven years, but right now couldn't imagine anything but diapers and baby food.

"Welcome back, Kyroh." Because he'd been here before, even if this was his first time taking classes.

There was Hadley. Weird that this would be the last term seeing her. Very Weird. Pretty vague instructions. So they would be moving after the get seated. Interesting.

If she did not know his name by now. This would be an awesome replacement.
Heh. Awesome?

Leave it to a Prefect to come up with that name. But alas, it was Nigel's last year. Sniff. She flashed him a brief smile of welcome though.

He nodded and said, "Hello Professor Hadley, Welcome back!" He smiled warmly and returned to his seat.

Once he got to his own seat as he put his bag down, he noticed there was a name tag. He was sure the Professor knew his name but he shrugged and did what he was told. He got out his quill and wrote....

He wanted to add a little pizzaz to his name tag. This was a nickname given to his friends. Why not try it out?
"Hello there, Kace and thank you! It's good to be back!" She beamed at him.

And another new student. This one too was clad in red robes. Had Seren tricked the sorting hat into sorting everyone into Gryffindor or something? "Hello there!" she greeted back.

Running up the stairs to the muggle studies classroom, Leah stopped at the corridor and slowed down, patting down her hair. Then she saw her at the doorway. "Professor Hadley!" she yelled, hugging her head of house around the middle. "It's so good to see you again." the second year grinned.

Taking the name tag and a marker, she wrote down her information.

Sticking it on her robes, Leah sat down next to Angel. "Hi. Excited?" she beamed. This class must be easy for the muggle-born girl. Setting her bag down, Leah looked around and wondered why so many people wrote rubbish onto their name tags.
Well this was awkward and quite the surprise when one of her young Hufflepuffs wrapped her arms around her middle. Patting her gently on the shoulders, she smiled back. "Likewise, likewise, Leah." She swallowed, grateful when the second year released her and took a seat. Sweet intentions, really, they were.

So the class, while he had done a lot of reading, would be a challenge.

Fidgeting with his old quidditch shirt from his former school as he entered the room, Bryant gave a glance around the classroom before giving a friendly nod to the professor. "Good day professor. My name is Bryant Morris, fourth year transfer. I do hope you are well." He said, taking a name tag and finding a seat. He pulled out the only muggle pen he owned and quickly wrote his name and year in a very neat cursive.
Now here was a polite transfer. At least they weren't ALL snotty like that Slytherin one ... Grayson. Introduce yourself if you're new. It made sense to Fina. "Nice to meet you, Bryant. Looking forward to seeing you around." She was, truly, because she always looked forward to seeing nice polite students. They gave hope for humanity.

Before her family moved, Penelope had not known much about the wizarding world and magic. It had been really hard for her muggle dad to adjust to the wizarding world. Finding the class after walking all the way down to the first floor, Penelope entered the room.

Entering the classroom, Penelope greeted the Professor. "Hello Professor Hadley." She took a name tag and wrote her name and year on it.
"Hello there, welcome!" she greeted back to another new Ravenclaw.

Josette felt terrible for not even acknowledging this. Once near the Professor she gave a polite bow before she said softly, "H-Hello Professor...I-I hope you are well.." Giving her a nod, she turned to find a seat where she'd placed her things down. Soon after taking a quick moment to write down her name on the name tag.
So sweet. So quiet. Nodding at the small Ravenclaw (had eagles and lions taken over or something? o.O), she smiled grateful at her politeness. "Thank you, Josette. I'm quite alright." It wasn't as if SHE aged fifty years or so like everyone else had, last term. Nope, she'd been exempt from the curse or whatever and retained her youth.

Yep. Probably one of the classes he will enjoy genuinely. Prior to attending this class, Ethan made sure that he got the professor’s name this time. He guessed it was fair that way since the professors knew them all; transfers or not. Professor Josephina Hadley. Copy that.

The Slytherin walked into the classroom and gave the professor a warm smile and a wave. “Good day, Professor Hadley.” After giving her a nod, he then got himself a green tag and a green marker and wrote down his name. The house pride thing going on in their common room was finally sinking in.

He placed the marker back in the cup and got himself a seat beside a Ravenclaw (Josette) and placed his nametag on his robe. Ethan smiled and gave his seatmate a wave. Hi, person.

Now. Where’s Simon?
"Good day, Ethan," she noted in response to the young Slytherin, as he settled in next to the young Ravenclaw Josette.

Yet she still couldn’t ignore the fact she was related to a Muggle, and that was why she continually felt she should have considered the subject one of her stronger ones. Unfortunately, it was more one of her average ones, but she liked Professor Hadley. She’d been curious at the announcement for the lesson, too, seeing the rumors she’d heard as well as the knowledge she hadn’t remembered seeing her at school before now. She wasn’t about to ask, though. Maybe asking would have been rude, and she wasn’t that.

In any case, the professor was there, and she’d given her a smile as she’d entered the classroom and taken the name tag offered to her. “Hi Professor Hadley!,” she added. She wasn’t offended at the suggestion they all needed those, not like it looked like some of her classmates were. If anything, it would save her the trouble of needing to introduce herself if there was partner work, like she’d had to do in the first Potions lesson with Leah. She’d seen the second year as she’d headed for an open seat, too, and given her a little smile as well. She’d sort of eyed Demelza as she’d passed her sitting behind Cris looking as if she was trying to memorize the back of his head, too. As long as there didn’t end up being any hysterics, though, she figured they were all safe. She’d still found a seat nearby just in case, settling in and pulling a pen out of her bag to write on her name tag.
Another Seventh year. Yup. Seventh years, eagles and lions had totally taken over the school this term. Only this one - Lily - was a quiet one, more insightful than chatterer. Nodding in politeness at the seventh year, she noted the time and figured it was just about time to begin.

"Hello Professor Hadley," he said as he walked past her desk, picked up a name tag and green marker. Simon quickly wrote his name down and then placed the name tag on him. He made sure that his handwriting was neat and legible. That was a always a good start.

His eyes scanned the classroom as he looked for a familiar face. He found Cutty and gave the boy a friendly wave and nod. His eyes continued looking for another familiar face and then he found Ethan sitting next to a Ravenclaw girl. He gave his friend a smile and grabbed the open seat on the other side to him. "Hey. Ready for this class?" he asked as he opened up his backpack and started unpacking his notebook and pens.

"Hello Professor!" he was chipper she could tell, yeah? Grabbing a orange marker and a red name tag cos gryffindor, and also cos it was the one on top of the pile he was just lucky like that. He scribbled his name on and year on it and stuck it to his robes, yup good.

Fifth Year
Right after the last two students just barely made it on time. Another new one? Or at least knew to Muggle Studies, but he seemed to know a few students (which wasn't unlikely even for a new student since they'd been at school now for a few months). "Hello there! Welcome," she beamed back at the two boys, before closing the classroom door after them and walking over to set the markers and remaining tags on her desk.


Now facing the class, her hands clasped together in front her she patiently waited for the students to settle in and quiet down (the few who were talking to their neighbors anyway). "Hello, hello! As most of you already know, I'm Professor Hadley. Bit of a background for you; this will be my third year teaching Muggle Studies, but before that I taught Arithmancy for ten years here at Hogwarts and before that, Charms for two years in South Africa. I grew up in a muggle neighborhood so despite my mother being a witch, we did a lot of things the 'muggle way'. I'm here to help you, so if you have any questions about anything, muggle related or not, don't hesitate to visit me." And that just about summed up the basics anyway. Now onto the lesson.

"Anyway, onto our first lesson. As I made note of on the notice board, I think this lesson is important for anyone. It will be slightly basic, but hopefully informative, even if you already know some about the topic. Just to see what you know; who can explain to me the difference between cooking and baking?"



ooc: Lesson has begun, so if you didn't post arriving, pretend on if you've been here the whole time or risk points being docked. Thanks! =)
