Gemma walked slowly to the front of the classroom smiling and taking small steady breaths. She hoped the students couldn't tell that she was nervous about her first lesson.

When she reached the front of the room, she turned towards the class and said in her sweet voice, "Alright, let's go ahead and get started..." she said with a little nod up and down.

She spanned the room quickly and didn't see anyone asleep...yet...that was a good sign...right?..."Well, before we get started, I would like to formally introduce myself." she said as she pushed a stray blonde bang behind her ear. "I'm Professor Gemma Cerulean. This is my first year teaching at Hogwarts and I am very excited to try to make History of Magic a little bit more fun then it has been in the past...or atleast that's my goal for the term." she took a breath and then continued. "I am a Hogwarts graduate and I am happy to back at the school to help share my love of History." she said with a little shrug of her shoulders. "I'm excited to meet you all and I encourage you to come visit me at my office anytime."...and now on to the lesson.

With a flick of her wand, the fireworks and confetti all went off at once over each of the tables, "Welcome to the first History of Magic lesson of the term. Today we are celebrating something amazing!" she said blowing some confetti off of her lip. "Today's lesson may be a review for many of you but I think it's important to always start the term off with a history that is very important to every wizard and witch." she smiled at the students...okay enough with the build up.

With another flick of her wand, the muggle Happy Birthday song started playing and the Happy Birthday banner started changing colors crazily. "Today we are celebrating the Birthday of Hogwarts!!!" she said excitedly as more fireworks went off and candy started falling from the ceiling.

"So, let's get started....can anyone tell me approximately how old Hogwarts is?" she asked flicking her wand to make all of the commotion stop.
Oh an old Hogwarts student? Alex wondered briefly what house the prof had been in when she had been in school but didn't have time to think it over before she asked a question to the class.

It actually came as a shock to him that he knew the answer. Or at least he thought he knew it. He raised his hand anyways. "Isn't it like really old? Over 1000 years, I think." he said. Ahem. OLD HOUSE, OLD HOUSE!
