Selina was quite alarmed that this professor new her name, although she did not show it. They had not yet met, she had thought, surely all the proffesors couldn't just know all of the students names.
"No I haven't lost my scarf professor, I left it in my dormitory. Didn't think I'd be needing it today."
This wasn't entirely true, her Hufflepuff scarf had actually been hastily shoved into her bag upon finding a Slytherin scarf, but she had no desire to swap them back.

“Good evening and welcome to another Astronomy lesson - not to ever be confused with the pseudoscientific hokum known as Astrology,” the man began with his standard and friendly reminder of why they all were gathered here in this classroom. “Let’s begin first by addressing the dragon in the room,” he continued as he summoned his own apple - a crisp Alfriston apple - and why the man knew all these different types of apples would remain a mystery indefinitely - and held it up for all the class to see. “Apples. I can tell from the expressions on many of your faces you are wondering what in Merlin’s beard those are doing on your desks and whether or not you can eat it. Please rest assured that should your apple survive the remainder of the lesson that you are free to take your apple with you and consume it. Your apple has not been modified in any way and will produce no magical side effects.” Tossing his own apple up in the air and catching it, Airey grinned and scanned the semi circle of desks before continuing. “But before we delve into all that, everyone please take a careful look at your apple and those belonging to the persons to your right and to your left...unless you are on the end of our semi circle and then just either to your right or your left. What is true about them? What are some universal truths about your apples?”

Yeah...what ABOUT them apples? HUH?!

Most of the obvious answers had already been mentioned, Apples were fruit, they grew on trees, so Selina decided to take a different approach,
"Apples are often used as a symbol of knowledge, love and fertility"
