Title: Weirdest, strangest, most interesting.
Post by: Midnight9795 on May 20, 2006, 04:13:09 PM
We all have weird teachers..and their assignments can make a person go ''Wth?! O.o'' I wanna know about some of the strangests projects they had you do. My english teacher had us do a report on Quilts. Personally I found it a bit interesting, mainly because I added extra stuff like civil war, women's rights, and other stuff. What about ya'll?

A few days ago for my English class, I had to write a report about how I feel about the prejudice against Chinese immigrants in America in the 1800's. -_- We're studying a book called Thousand Pieces of Gold, which is about a Chinese immigrant girl. BOOOORIIING. :yell:

"Ok class for next thursday bring in some crickets or roaches; preferly, roaches. And if you can some worms."

Out of the blue from my Biology 2 teacher.

I trully wondered my place that day.

Weird school assignments? Hmm...this is a little bizarre.

At the end of every years, my english teachers allowed each and every students to learn the lyrics of a song and we were allowed to sing it in front of the class. Based on our performance, we were given additional points to our final mark. It's more funny than weird. Sadly, the said teacher passed away this year.

In my Aviation/Transporation class i made a electric car that can go about 30-45 mph and 1 person can drive it, and the teacher showed us how to make a small bomb

All we do in English-class is drink tea and chat about stuff in Dutch. But that's mostly because my English-teacher is my class' mentor. She rules, she's nice, she has great tea.

This seriously happened once:

Science- none.
Soc. St.- Do your comp. app. homework.

English- none.

I once had a "listening test" in my English class.

It went something like:

"write the date two days before yesterday"

"if Kobe Bryant plays for the Vancouver Canucks, write yes. Otherwise write no."

Math Class -

"Write an essay about what college you'd like to go to and how math helps you get there."

That one just left me thinking, wtf does that have to do with ANYTHING we've been doing? And it's being graded?? AS A TEST GRADE???

I had to do a science project back when I was in Grade 7, so I decided to make a Bill Nye the Science Guy spoof, called Mathias Mann the Science Fan (note Mann is not my last name). It was about the chemical changes phosphorus makes when it comes in contact with your skin. I had long hair back then, and I used half a 250ml jar of extra-strong hair gel to give myself a 4-inch tall cowlick.

Of course I had these spiffy 3" diameter glasses on that magnifyed your eyes to look twice as big. Then I had a shirt on that said "Sc!ence al!ve" on it. Not that I'm a nerd, I just wanted to look like one for this project. Needless to say, it was the funniest thing I had ever done.

Then my friend did a rap about hydrochloric acid. That was a classic. I did the vocal beatbox, while one friend turned the lights on and off, and two others were throwing blingbling-cha-ching (actually cut up pieces of green construction paper). We got a bunch of girls to mosh in front of the table my friend was standing on while rapping.

the lyrics went something like:

(beatbox clickz) Hydrochloric Acid!
(beatbox clickz) Hydrochloric Acid!
(beatbox clickz) Hydrochloric Acid!

Lets kick it OLD SCHOOL
(G-G-G G UNIT)

(beatbox clickz) Hydrochloric Acid!
(beatbox clickz) Hydrochloric Acid!
(beatbox clickz) Hydrochloric Acid!

It starts with an "h" and ends with a "d"!
Theres some inside of you, and some inside of me!

Hy-dro chloric...
Hy-dro chloric...
ACID
YEAH YEAH YEAH!

It was sulphuric an it felt like I got churned!
Strong as sulphuric, burns like flares!
It melts some dog hairs..and maybe BEARS!

Hy-dro chloric...
Hy-dro chloric...
ACID
YEAH YEAH YEAH!

Breakin' down food an' meltin' it dry!
Put ma hand in and it came out...FRYED!
It came out...FRY-ah-IED!

KC1 + H2O + S3 + KC1
Turns your food into debree!

Hy-dro chloric...
Hy-dro chloric...
ACID
YEAH YEAH YEAH!

Carbon Dioxide and...

(Beatbox solo)

...and Sodium Chloride, Hydrochloric Acid
I ate some food...and it felt like one sausage mess!

YEAH
YEAH

Indigestion
Heartburn
Upset Stomach
Nausea
Diarrahrea

EAT PEPTO BISMOL! WHOOO!

I think that was similar to a gym assignment I had once.  Except it was 5 pages, and it was on Native American's in general.  Why it was in gym...I don't know.

Not quite related, but the other year in Physics our class went to the DSTO (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defence_Science_and_Technology_Organisation) which was interesting to say the least. But the most awesome part ever was the helicopter simulator. I was flying it, Weregnome was manning the guns, and together we blew our teacher out of the sky (he was using another simulator).

He told us that he would fail us for that. Incidentally, we did fail Physics  that term.

MY science teacher took my class to some nasa place and we had a simulation thingy. I was a mechanic. A girl was in life support and we had very little oxygen left (there was a leak or something) and there was about 2 sec left til we were out and she just fixed it. it was fun.

Health Class last year-
"Write a report on why you think computers are ruining the youth." Not if you think they do or don't, just why they do. I think I turned in 3 pages about Roswell, NM, UFO's, and how Jimmy Buffet ate the planet Saturn.

English Test Grade-
"Free write whatever comes to mind. Be serious, and create a coherent pattern of thoughts." I started at Battlestar Glactica and ended at taco shaped underwear. Surprisingly, it all tied together so I got's a B.

Wow. I once wrote for science how the energy from the sun helps us grow/eat food. Sadly, after almost 9 years of science, this is supposed to be "hard". So I did it in the most random way possible.

Sun hits atmosphere.
Heats air, warm air rises.
Cool air rushes in as wind.
Wind powers Dutch windmills.
Windmill grinds cocoa and other nessecities.
We eat those nessecities.

I shall not accept your words about our ancient temples in which we worship the wind-god Hack'thar Jach'therra! Prepare to die in our holy dueling match... Yu-gi-oh-beyblademon!

Not boring. People suffered and they deserve to be remembered.





This isn't so much a weird assignment, but a weird comment. On my Odyssey project, I made Odopoly (Monopoly). Instead of money, you had sheep.
On my rubric, I found the comment

"Not enough sheep."

I'm not sure myself. I'll have to think on it for a while.

In a science class a while back, we did a short essay about testicles. It haunts me to this day.

I know it's sad that it happened, but it's boring to write an essay about it.

Our sociology teacher once found a Ku-Klux Clan uniform in the classroom (it had been used for a presentation or something) and he wore it for the rest of the lesson :p

Also he can be easily bribed with cake :D

My english teacher this year--Santiago--was the best English teacher I ever had. He's my second favorite teacher of all the teacher's I've had til now. Here's a quote of one of his classes:

"So, the indians were forced into Oklahoma. Needless to say, there were screwed. They couldn't grow anything, because when they dug a hole, all of this black gunk would flow out. Then, the Americans noted--'That's oil!", and they realized that they had sent Indians to oil-rich territories."

Student :"Aw, man, what idiots!"

Santiago: "Here's the best part: They tried to take it away. They said, 'You have bad lands. We'll take it back from you.' The indians said, 'No, we like it here (and we don't want you taking what little land we have left, land-grubber!). The americans :"But you don't know how to get the oil!" Indian:'Yes, we do. We've sent our children to your schools. Hey! Turtle Back! Get over here!...This is our engineer."
American: "...We'll take it by legal force!'
Indian: 'Really...? Hey! Sh**ting Bull! Get over here!...This is our lawyer'.

Yeah, he has a killer sense of humor.
Note: I...really hope I didn't insult anyone with that quote...and Santiago meant no offense either. It wasn't my intention. Sorry.
