Doing a quick head count, Seren figured it was about time to get the ball rolling. If there were any late comers, they could deal with her later.
"Hello everyone! Welcome to our first lesson of the term. I hope you're all well rested after the summer holidays. For returning students welcome back, and for new students... welcome. I'm Professor Bentley, I trust you're all familiar on the classroom rules." She paused here to eyeball a few students whom appeared to be trouble makers. Mmhhmm. Rules. Follow them.
"This term, our unit of study will be herbs. Can anybody have a guess at how we might define a herb?"
OOC: The lesson has officially started. Do not announce yourself arriving late, just pretend as if you've been here the whole time. Do not edit your answers (I'll know if you do). The lesson will continue in approximately 20 hours.
Raising her hand high in the air, she said,
"Herbs are plants that can be used as ingredients for different things, such as potions, food, medicine, and stuff like that." That seemed to be what everyone else was saying. Cleaning supplies, as well. So basically, they put herbs in soap? Ooohkay. And for chewing on?!?! Unheard of!! Hopefully they were given a good washing beforehand. Otherwise, you would be eating
dirt. Double eeewww. No one likes to eat dirt. That would make you siiiick!!
