My teacher made me kneel on the floor at the faculty room for laughing out so loud on her when her dentures fell out while she was lecturing. It was worth the laugh, though..hahaha!
If you'd read my original post, you'd know that he does. Lol. And...being taught that lines AREN'T parallel in pre-algebra...I envy your curriculum.
yeah and then last year they taught us how to find where these lines met,using a calculator,and why they are not parallel.Anyways if you read my original post I said that our school system is very strict about the curriculum,and as they like to call it a "ositive learning environment"The thing is if not enough students pass the "Standards of Learning" exam which is our state-wide test(every state has one with a different name) then they tend to lose their jobs and so they try to teach us stuff ahead of time alot,and if you lived in my area you would find that they tend to teach you stuff for the next year(next year curriculum) at the end of the year to make sure you are ahead.So yeah we have a nice curriculum I guess you could say.Anyways now would be a good time to get back on topic shall we.
Parallel lines don't intersect in (Euclidean) planar geometry except maybe at infinity but that's a bit iffy. Non-Euclidean space (something like curved space for those that need something to visualize) can have intersecting parallel lines. Lines don't necessarily have to intersect at some point either way to my knowledge. In middle school, everything is Euclidean. But heck, I think everyone is stuck in the Euclidean rut since it's a base assumption when talking about below-calculus math.
I don't particularly understand where one'd have to go to school to get such horrible teachers. I've heard of them from friends, but I always thought they were exaggerations.
The worse thing was when the teacher made a mistake on the whiteboard contrary to what she was saying while doing an example. I didn't bother to correct the teacher because there was a group of (loud) idiot students who read the textbook and do things by the textbook (i.e. "but that's not what the textbook says" types) who misinterpreted what they read in the textbook and incorrectly corrected the teacher (by using the textbook!). It was one of those classes where students didn't have to raise their hands to talk. Since it was about something I was taught about four times in four different classes (not surprising given what classes I've taken), it was doubly agonizing to sit there for those ten minutes since I thought there was supposed to be something at the end of class. Otherwise, I'd have left early. I'm sure everyone's homework then had the wrong answer.
My teacher was racist and everytime i stepped in class she told me to go to the principles office. She soon got fired when i told him and he found out it was true. I am not black I am white. And that term was not meant racially but anyway yea, how mean was she.
Once, in my global class, I was sitting in the back, listening to the teacher. He didn't call on me once the whole year. Finally, he asks me a question about the lesson, he COMPLETELY screws up the question to the point where it doesn't make sense, so, no surprise i get it wrong. He yells "Dan, I put you back there the whole year cause I thought I knew what the hell you were doing!" he yells stuff at me, curses at me, embarrasses me in front of the whole class, then moves me up front. I hated him.
well i am home schooled but how do you guys do it sit in class from like 8:00 a.m.-3:00 p.m. and then go home and do like a sh*t lode of home work and then be done buy like 5:00 (it may take awhile to get home)
just don't do say i don't have to do something i don't wana do like when i take a class (i go to a program and do classes) i can go off campus and get pizza or something if my mom lets me
