SPOILER!!: Professor!

Carlton nodded, vigorously. "Very excited. I like space." That's where Luke Skywalker, Han Solo and Obi-Wan Kenobi hung out.

He didn't have time to answer the professor's first question though as loads of hands shot up in the air. He bounced a little in his seat, repeating the rhyme they'd taught him at school to remember all the planets in order from the sun and outward.

Eager to be part of the discussion, even though the right answer had already been said he waved his hand in the air. "Neptune is far away from the sun, another planet that is far away from the sun is Saturn, Professor." See how smooth the conversation went from a boring planet to his favorite one? "And Saturn is neat because of its rings that look like hula-hoops." Come to think of it, he hadn't seen any hula-hoops laying around the castle. Maybe it was a muggle thing? So Carlton wiggled his hips as though he was using a hula hoop. Just so that they get the idea of how cool the planet was.

So... Wanna talk about Saturn? Yeah?

She let out a little laugh. "Are you excited about todays lesson, Mr Lewis?" Caroleena stood up erased what was on the chalkboard. She wasn’t going to write anything on the chalkboard at this very moment. The Frenchwoman walked towards the back of the class room and closed the door. Professor Salvatore walked back up to the front of the room and stood in front of her desk. First she wanted to get some introductions out of the way. “Happy November everyone! We’re getting closer towards Christmas break and I’m sure with all of the homework that your other professors have been giving you, you’ll be very happy to have a break for your classes and homework!” the woman with the Irish-French accent said in a cheery tone. She was trying cheery this time around. Teaching at a different school was interesting, she still didn’t have a full feel for Hogwarts. “First off, I am Professor Caroleena Salvatore, Hogwarts’ newest Astronomy professor.” she smiled at them as she walked towards the front of her desk and leaned on it. “You may not call me Caroleena. You may however call me ma’am or Professor Salvatore.” which was the more acceptable names for a professor and her students relationship. She was here to teach then and not be there friend but if they need advice for anything or help with Astronomy she was more than willing to help them out. “For today’s lesson we will be learning about the planets in our solar system. There are eight planets in our solar system. Can anyone tell me which planet is the farthest away from the sun?” OOC: Class has begun! Please do not post your character late, if you choose to post your character late you will lose house points. Class will continue in about 24 hours! Carlton nodded, vigorously. "Very excited.
