Watching the doorway, Rosalyn smiled as the first student entered the classroom. "Hello, Mr Bellaire." It was hard not to notice that the boy seemed less than enthused about being here but fortunately for him this lesson was not going to be too heavy on the content. She was going to give their brains a bit of a rest since the holidays were fast approaching. Also neat quill.

Aah, there was Ms Snow. Always a delightful student because she was polite and eager to learn. That was something that Rosalyn liked to see though she did not believe in playing favourites; she valued all students equally. "Hello, Ms Snow. I am doing quite well, thank you. I hope you are too." Despite how cold the castle was lately that is. At least she had remedied the problem as far as her classroom was concerned...

The small smile was nice to see, and Rosalyn returned the gesture. "Hello, Ms Andrews." She too declined on taking any Chocolate Frogs and that was alright as they were available throughout the lesson so long as the students didn't get up to grab them while she was in the middle of talking. They would know better than that by now anyway, especially the older ones.

"Nice to see you, Mr Reed," Rosalyn said as she returned the bow. That was different than what she was generally used to but she liked it. She knew a little about Japanese culture and found it utterly fascinating. As he went to sit by Azura, Rosalyn turned her attention back to the door for when more students arrived.

It was obvious to see that Mr Quinn was feeling the cold despite the fact that there had been heating spells put in place. "Hello," she said as she watched the boy shiver away. "Would you like me to make the class even warmer?" Some people really disliked the cold and she didn't want any of her students to be freezing.

Enthusiasm! Now that was what she liked seeing from her students. Rosalyn returned the wide smile. "Hello, Ms Tate." Hopefully the enthusiasm would stay throughout the lesson and no one would fall asleep because that was something that just didn't not go over well in her classroom.

With an eyebrow raise, Rosalyn watched as Mr Montezor entered her classroom with none of the cheerfulness that Hufflepuff was known for. At least he managed to give her a greeting despite his mood. That was something always appreciated. "Hello, Mr Montezor, she said as she returned the bow. Should she ask what was wrong? Hopefully the Chocolate Frog would help at least a little.

The next students seemed to be in a better mood which was nice to see. And he was thanking her for the Chocolate Frog, which made her smile. "Hello, Mr Fletcher. You are very welcome." Fortunately he took the beanie off of his head before she could tell him to. Even though it was rather cold around the castle, there WAS a dress code and heating charms in place.

Another cheerful student! "Hello, Mr Salander." Rosalyn said as she watched the boy take a few of the Chocolate Frogs. He was more than welcome to take as many as he wanted since she had charmed the bowl to keep refilling itself. Wasn't magic just one of the most amazing things ever? She didn't know what she would do without it.

The next student bypassed the Chocolate Frogs entirely but had a smile on her face though it DID seem to be a little forced. Seemed that the cold was getting to most of the students though they would be feeling much better soon enough. "Good to see you, Ms Skeeter." It was a joy to see all of her students even though some of them definitely didn't seem to share her enthusiasm for history. Oh well.

Soon after another student had arrived. "Hello there, Franks-Mundie," Rosalyn said as she returned the girl's smile. She watched as it took a moment for her to find a place to sit but it didn't take too long for her to be situated by Mt Fletcher. Good since they were going to be starting soon. Almost time to close the door.

"Hello, Mr Whittebrook," Rosalyn said as she smiled back at the boy. He was also being polite and thanking her for the chocolate. "You are very welcome." While a lot of Professors didn't seem to like students eating in their lessons, she found that it wasn't a problem so long as they made sure not to make a mess.

The first Prefect had arrived. "Good morning, Ms Valentine." Rosalyn was glad to see that she removed the hood off of her head before taking one of the Chocolate Frogs. "You are very welcome." After giving the girl a smile, she returned her attention back to the door.

"Hello, Mr Thomas-Borzekowski," Rosalyn said as she watched the boy step inside the classroom. She returned the smile and was glad to see that he helped himself to one of the Chocolate Frogs before heading over to one of the desks. Honestly she was starting to feel tempted to take one for herself but sadly it would have to wait until class was over.

"Hello, Ms Griffel," Rosalyn said as she watched the girl eye the bowl of Chocolate Frogs hungrily before taking one. "You are very welcome." There were a lot more where that came from, but the girl ws already heading over to one of the free desks. It was nice to see that she wasn't the only one with a soft spot for the chocolates.

And there was the other Bellaire. "Good to see you, Mr Bellaire-Moore." Rosalyn watched as he took a seat beside his cousin. No surprise since they always sat together. No harm in that. She didn't believe that seating plans were necessary and liked to allow people the choice to sit wherever they wanted to. So long as they didn't talk when she was in the middle of teaching.

The next student to enter made a beeline towards her friends without saying hello. That was something that Rosalyn was not a huge fan of though she wasn't going to give punishments for it. Just was common courtesy. Anyway she wanted to know where the Chocolate Frogs were. "Hello, Ms Kettleburn. You can get the chocolate from the bowl on my desk."

Hearing that sigh almost made Rosalyn laugh. It was nice to see how much her warming spells were appreciated by the students. She thought it was incredible how even with all the magic that happened around Hogwarts the castle was always cold in the winter unless spells were used. "Hello, Ms Umbridge," she said in reply as she watched the girl find a seat.

Here was another student who entered the classroom without so much as acknowledging her presence. Rosalyn had a bit of difficulty holding her tongue. "Hello, Ms Newman." Glancing at her watch, she saw that it was almost time to close the classroom door. Anyone to come after that would lose points.

"Hello, Mr Emery," Rosalyn said as she flashed the boy a smile. He was one who seemed to rather enjoy history and hopefully he would enjoy what they would be doing for today's lesson. Laid back was rather nice and there was no way that she was going to make her students' brains hurt so close to Christmas.

And there was Ms Delgado. "Hello, Ms Delgado." Rosalyn gave the girl a smile. The girl opted for two Chocolate Frogs before heading over to one of the empty groups of desks. It seemed that her classroom was filling up rather quickly and most of the tables were filled already. Good. Very good.

Seeing Ms Phillips entering the room without any enthusiasm was rather strange to Rosalyn. Seemed that the girl wasn't in a good mood today. No greeting from this one. Instead she had made a beeline towards Ms Newman. "Hello, Ms Phillips." Great timing because the lesson would be starting in a few minutes after the rest of her students trickled in.

"Hello, Mr Kovalainen," Rosalyn said as she watched the First Year enter the classroom and take a seat in one of the empty tables. Seemed that he wasn't feeling very hungry either as he had also opted out of taking a Chocolate Frog.

The split lip and bruised face didn't go unnoticed and Rosalyn resisted the urge to raise her brow. Clearly there had been a fight. Not something that she condoned but it seemed that he was doing okay. If anything was seriously bad he would make a trip to the Hospital Ward to see Joy. "Hello, Mr Asakura," she said while noticing that he took a few Chocolate Frogs without giving a greeting. If this continued much longer she would be saying something.

And there was Ms McNally. "Good day to you too, Ms McNally," Rosalyn said with a smile. She watched as the girl looked around the classroom looking for a place to sit before heading over to join Ms Phillips and Ms Newman.

"Hello, Mr Winchester," Rosalyn said before laughing at what he told her about the candy selection. "I might have some of those for a future lesson," she said knowing full well that he was only teasing her. Nice to see students with a good sense of humor. She smiled as she watched him take two Chocolate Frogs before finding a seat.

Another student who abstained from giving a greeting. Rosalyn had just about reached her limit as far as this was concerned. The next person to walk in without displaying courtesy would earn the class a lecture on such things and she did NOT like giving lectures. "Hello, Ms Summers," she said as the girl took a seat by Ms Delgado.

"Hello, Ms Toussaint. You are very welcome." Rosalyn said in reply to the greeting as the girl took a couple Chocolate Frogs. She glanced at her watch to see what time it was. In one minute she would be starting so this was excellent timing.

The next arrival seemed to be rather short of breath. Clearly she had ran all the way to the classroom. "Hello, Ms McDean," she said with a smile as she watched the girl make her way over to one of the empty seats. Only a few more spots were left to be filled by this time.

Rosalyn was about to head towards the door when another student had arrived. "Excellent timing, Mr Somerhalder," she said while noticing that he had also declined from giving her a greeting, instead looking around the room. "Just sit anywhere," she told the boy. Lesson was about to start in a second.

"Hello, Ms Darcy," Rosalyn said as the Hufflepuff Prefect followed immediately after Mr Somerhalder. Seemed that someone really liked Chocolate Frogs. "You are very welcome," she said with a smile before heading over to the door and closing it. Anyone who arrived after this point was going to lose points.
