In english class we were supposed to start reading Macbeth but the teacher decided to change it to a project of showing what we would have at a fall feast. I need 2 of appetizers, main dishes, sides, and deserts, plus 2 guests id invite (living or dead).
I never have appetizers, I dont understand why you would eat before you eat, so I havent the slightest clue of what to put.
And for my main course and sides I have chicken nuggets, mac and cheese, and rolls. Very basic food for children but I cant handle all the "fancy" food most adults enjoy (I still order from the kids menu at restaurants). Then I was thinking I should have a fruit so I chose grapes but I need to write the recipe for everything and grapes dont have a recipe because they just grow. So I cant do a fruit. But also, some things I want I dont need a recipe for, like ill just buy some chips, im not going to make it from scratch!
My grandma used to make something with marshmallows and pineapple and jello, she called Leprechaun Salad and shed make it for holidays, so I put that but deleted it because its called Leprechaun and thats for St Patrick's day.
The first person who popped in my head to invite was Anna but shes not "real" and everyone will laugh at me, but I dont know who else to invite.
We also need pictures on a slide show, I have this thing where I can only have a picture on a slide if the background is transparent and im having trouble finding pictures that are what I want without a background. And im feeling nauseous from looking at pictures of food. I dont know why people think pictures of food is appetizing, food commercials always make me feel sick. Food is so nasty actually, if I wouldnt d*e from not eating food then I would never eat again.
But this assignment is giving me so much anxiety, I know im overthinking it and nobody will care if I lie about what food I want, but I just.. ugh why cant we just read Macbeth like originally planned?? I think the teacher was trying to be nice with this "fun" project but I am about to cry over it.
I think this thread is just a "complain about my english teacher" thread now instead of "I need help with an assignment"
Buut....
On 14 December, teacher posts and assignment called "Semester Exam James" (I dont know what James is about. His name isnt James, its Steve.) it says "Due Dec 14" and "Work cannot be turned in after the due date.". So like a logical person, I do the assignment that day.
But today he messages me saying I wasnt supposed to do it until my exam on the 20th. WHY DID HE POST IT ON THE 14TH THEN?? Every single thing this man does makes no sense to me. Anyway I asked what I need to do but ughhhh.
The google form wasnt even on locked mode. Who makes an exam where you can easily just look everything up?
Now im nervous that im in trouble... Why wont he tell me what I need to do right now??
It's not you. I think. He's not sure himself. Can you reach out the admin of the school about this? It bring all your documentation and go to them?
I hope you and the others with this teacher can find a way to get a new one. Document, collect testimony.
Also your collective grades will show the discrepancy.
Good Hunting!
This guy sounds like he is setting you for failure! Document it all. How have the other students been experiencing this teacher?
I came in for my english exam today. The teacher said I can retake it, if I want to improve my score. He said I got 77% so I was gonna retake it but then I quit because its hard. Over half of it is asking for definitions to words. Words that I have never heard in my life. He hasnt taught this, how can I awnser correctly? And anyway, when I took it the first time I didnt realise it was a test so I googled stuff and had my mom help. If me, google, and my mom together gets a 77% then what kind of score would just me get... But at least I didnt get yelled at like I expected
Uhane said:My 5th year teacher was so toxic he once upturned my desk and flung it down at my feet.
Oh man... Ive never had a teacher do that before. I did have a teacher 2 years ago who screamed at us every single day, and came close to hitting this boy. But I understood why she did. Every person in that class was so disrespectful to her and it made her hate our class. She almost was in tears alot of days. She always said I was her favorite since I was nice, quiet, and did what I was told.
Uhane said:Try talking to the other students nad see if they are also having similar trouble.
My next door neighbor has the same teacher as me. Im friends with her younger brother and he told me that she is failing the class because the teacher gives her a zero on every assignment she misses. Its not fair though because she has a medical condition and misses school because of going to hospital so often.
