Ira entered the herbology class with a smile on her face. Last term, she had thought that she would surely hate this subject, but then had grown to like it. Besides she liked Professor Bentley. And now she was the head of Ira's house. That was all the more reason to be happy.

She saw the professor standing at the entrance of the greenhouse. Ira greeted, "Hello Professor Bentley! Good Morning! Nice to see you.."

Then she entered the greenhouse, briefly wondering why it was a little dark.. Then assuming that it was part of the lesson, she followed instructions and stood over by the group.
