Women and Gender Studies, 6/20/07

[getupanddoit]

Today, the students were greeted with table upon table of art supplies, including paints, clay, plaster, paper mache, feathers, popsicle sticks, markers, plastic rhinestones, and of course, glitter.

"Alright people, let's get right to it, this week. Now, we've been doing this for a little while so you all should have started to get a pretty good idea of what your personal gender indentificationing is! Which is why today, we're going to have a little fun."

"But only a little,"

"Oh, hush, Syvvie!" Maddie gestured to the table. "You see we have lots and lots of artistic supplies up here. We want you to go ahead and make a self-portrait. But! There's a catch! There's always a catch! You might notice that we don't have any MIRRORS around here! That's because you're not allowed to look at yourself while you do this. That's right!"

"That's right!"

"We're not interested in seein' your physical outdoor self, today, we want to see your inner self. Your mental image of who you are on the INSIDE. And there ain't no mirror that can tell you that."

"Don't they say the eyes are the mirrors to the soul?"

"Doors, Syvvie. Doors, not mirrors."

"No, I don't think that's it, either,"

"Anyway, no editing, no peeking, just . . . have at it! Make a mess and lets see your gorgeous inner-selves!"

Interdisciplinary Studies, Class 6, Wednesday, Period 5

[whatever-sucks.livejournal.com]

Today's class met on the edge of the Preserve, by a freshly built campfire. The appetizing aroma of grilled fish hung in the air, and Squall sat cross-legged on the ground, eating the last few bites of fish and vegetables off of a wide, flat rock. His gunblade was stuck in the ground nearby.

He stood up, wiped his hands on his pants, and tossed out the sign-in clipboard.

( And then there was class )

[Wait for OCD or whatever All ready for you to... You know. Go ahead or whatever.]

How to Annoy Your Teachers (And Not Get Turned Into Animals) [Week 6, Period 2]

John waited until each student had arrived and taken a seat before started.

"So, this class is going to be slightly different than our other classes."

He smiled and crossed his arms over his chest.

( Today, )

"Next week's our last class," John said, "and that sucks because I love teaching this and I'm still alive! I win!"

[Little bit different this week but a class on annoyance couldn't go by without a tribute to Jamie Madrox! Sockpuppet making materials are completely moddable! As always, homework can be handwaved and teachers are welcome to confront John in his thread!]

Construction Site: Wednesday, 6/20, all day

[needsaparrot]

The heat-wave seems to have broken a bit, but there's still plenty of extra water bottles around the job site, in addition to the usual tools, safety equipment, and building materials including more wood that needs cutting to proper length.

"Great job on the not causing maim-age to self or others so far, guys," Xander says seriously as the day starts. His hardhat is high-visibility lime green today. Just because. "Keep it up. Not half bad on the actual building stuff parts, either."

Ninja-ing - Wednesday 1st period - Week 6

[konoha-flash.livejournal.com]

“Good morning everyone!” Yondaime smiled; around him were several large boxes, some containing exploding tag papers, others containing the parts to make smoke bombs, and then a box of what looked like sponge kunai and shuriken, not to mention several large buckets of paint in three different colors. “As you may or may not have heard, this weekend Aly, Deadpool and I are organizing a field trip for our classes to go out and work with the skills that we have all learned. So today, we’re going to be preparing for this weekend.”

He paced slightly as he continued to speak. “When going into any sort of battle situation, you want to make sure that you are fully prepared for whatever they may throw at you, but at the same time you don’t want to have so much that it bogs you down. I’d like you all to get into groups and discuss how much preparation is needed for a large scale battle; what’s too much and what’s too little. Afterwards, I’d like you all to try and put together this class’s arsenal for the weekend. We’re going to have exploding tags that blow out paint instead of explosives, smoke bombs with handwavey instructions on how make them, sponge kunai and shuriken that we’re going to soak with paint. I’d like you all to practice with these ones because they’re going to throw differently than the normal metal ones.”

History in Action, Wednesday, 3rd Period

Bill Adama followed Roslin into the DangerShop, sipping from his coffee. He glanced around the empty, cavernous room, then looked to her, brows raised. "This is a classroom?"

Laura crossed to the control console looking every bit like the cat that swallowed the canary. ( 'Of sorts...' )

[OCD coming up. Tag in at will.]
