As some familiar students entered her classroom, and even some new ones, Josephina felt an odd sense of satisfaction. Particularly at seeing some of the returning students that she might not have expected. Adding small check marks to her parchment, she glanced up whenever another student entered and greeted her ever so politely.

"Thank you. Quite well," the brunette would reply, almost as if on auto-pilot. And then one student seemed set on bringing her a blue flower? Well that was strange; she thought most of the students had already given their appreciation gifts already. Smiling in appreciation at the girl, she nodded and twirled the flower for a moment before holding it carefully against the parchment with her thumb.

Once it seemed as if a fair number - for Arithmancy lessons anyway - of students had taken their seats, Fina closed the door, feeling slightly saddened by the fact that a certain She-Snake was no longer present. But perhaps one of these new students would take her place?

Walking back to the front, she turned to face the class, setting the parchment and quill on her desk beside her as she leaned back against it. She also set that blue flower on top of a box of chocolates - one that Oakey might find familiar looking if he noticed... "Well then, I guess we'll just get started. For those returning Arithmancy students, welcome back! For those who this is your first time, welcome! I'm Professor Hadley and I do look forward to teaching you and working with you on the divine art of Arithmancy!" She paused, giving them a moment to take out their parchments and quills, if they haven't already.

"Before we get into the nitty gritty topic of the lesson, it's always good to start with a short review. In studying Arithmancy, there are two major methods in existence. What are these two methods and what is the major distinction between the two?"
Professor Hadley looked nice and rested. He hadn't really seen her much since the Start of Term feast and wondered what she had been up to, but to be fair he hadn't ventured the Arithmancy classroom much either so it was on both of them.

The question asked made Auggie sit up straighter cause he knew this one! His hand shot into the air and he began to spill out the answer. "Professor Hadley the two methods for studying Arithmancy are Agrippan which is when the 26 letters of the alphabet are assigned numbers ranging from 1 to 9 and then the Chaldean method is pretty much the same thing but you dont use the number 9."
