He smiled at the instructor. "Good morning."
And now the stragglers were beginning to file in. Inez just smiled and returned the girl's greeting. She wasn't upset or anything. She wasn't really late and the department head didn't expect all of them to know exactly where the random room that served as their classroom would be--much less find it on their first try.
"Good morning to you too." Quote:

Taking a deep breath, she smiled at the Ministry woman who would be teaching them apparition. Emma was relieved that she wasn't late. "Hello!" she greeted with a happy grin, once she saw that the class hadn't stared yet.
After saying hello to the woman, she headed over to the parchment, picked up the quill, and wrote her name below.
After doing this, she beamed once she saw Selena was there and stood next to her best friend. "Hey!" she said to other students who were there, greeting them with a friendly smile. She wondered if Maddie would come to this class because she was supposably back at Hogwarts or that's what she had heard form some other students.
Well hello there, welcome." Inez smiled brightly to the eager Slytherin. She herself hadn't gone to Hogwarts but after reading up on all the houses and their traits and common, understood personalities she felt as if she would have been put in the house of the Snakes. Quote:

She had to pop her head into the room because her brother's boss taught the class. Leo worked with brooms, so the chance was slim that he would be here, but Presley had to check anyway. Leo hadn't sent her a letter in two weeks, which might mean he was busy, or that he was planning to surprise her? She without stepping into the room Presley peeked her head around the corned. Not many people were there, but she did spot Miss Grey, and no Leo. Feeling slightly dissapointed, the small girl pulled her head back out of the door, and continued down the hall as if she actually had something to do in that direction.
Another straggler?
Wait...no. That student was a much younger girl and she definately was not supposed to be here. Inez sat up straighter, trying to see who they were but before she could raise her voice to tell the girl that she was not permitted to attend this lesson she was off and running away.
Hmpf. That was easy enough.
Looking at her watch, Inez decided it was time to go ahead and begin the lesson now that a few more students had arrived to their little hiding-place classroom. Walking over to the door she shut it quietly and then turned to look at the small hodgepodge of students gathered before her.
"Welcome everyone to your first Apparition Lesson of the term. I am Inez Grey, Department Head of Magical Transportation at the Ministry of Magic." She said proudly, tapping her wand into the palm of her other hand as she spoke.
"Now each of you all should be very excited and thankful that you all are permitted to be here because of your experience and maturity as sixth and seventh year level students and I am equally excited for you. I remember when I recieved my Apparition license..." she said with a small smile and glassy eyes. It had been a nice summer back in America..oh she was teaching; no day-dreaming.
"Anyways as the board behind me shows," she stepped to the side and tapped the surface with her wand and the words bolded further.
"Our first lesson will be centered around the beginnings and basics of ALL common modes of Transportation, for you can't expect to be allowed to Apparate from one place to another without at least having a basic knowledge of other modes." "So let us start with something about as basic as we can get: Who can tell me what the four main modes of Magical Transportation we use here in Great Britain?" OCC: The lesson has now started, please do NOT announce yourself arriving late and if you decide to join, just post yourself as already being there!
