Chemistry, 11/7, Period 1

[tyler_gone]

There was a large TV in the front of the lab this week, and students who guessed it was movie week were correct.

"Hey," Tyler greeted the class as it assembled. "We were supposed to make aspirin this week, but we're out of salicylic acid. You get a movie instead. It's a biography of the scientist who discovered radium, so I'm actually giving you academic value this time. After the film, write a one-page paper about Madame Curie or radium itself."

"I'm around if you need help with this incredibly challenging assignment."

Phys Ed: Week 9, Period 2 (Fri. 11/7)

The gym this week was set up a little differently when students entered. In the center of the gym stood a stationary pole with a volleyball secured to the pole by a length of rope. Next to the pole stood the instructor. "I am told Tetherball is a fierce sport. Two players stand on opposite sides of the pole, one trying to wrap the tether clockwise around the pole while their opponent tries for counter-clockwise."

Ronon smacked the ball, sending it wrapping around the pole. "Hopefully it's more of a challenge with a partner. Get your uniforms on and find one. Let's see what you can do."

Naomi Wildman

To the rest of you, congratulations on staying out of trouble, and I hope that everyone has a safe weekend."

History in Living Colour - Friday, Period 3 (Week 9)

"Okay, so this week was meant to be in time of Will Shakespeare and Queen Elizabeth - the First - but I couldn't get Will quite right, so change of plans. The concept is the same. Sometimes it's aliens. You get that. Welcome to 10 Downing Street in London. Well, Westminster in London if you want to get technical. It's the residence and offices of the First Lord of the Treasury and the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. This room in particular is the Cabinet Room.

Aliens took over once, you know. Happens from time to time. In fact, they're right outside trying to take over the government. Not to worry! You're locked in. Let's get onto the part where you learn something. You have the long meeting table with leather chairs, the phone that can contact anyone on Earth as long as they pick up, a closet with some coats and a large room that's actually locked tight and can withstand a nuclear strike and direct missile strike. Your mission, should you choose to accept it - and you can always go and get me some coffee instead - is to use what's in the room to stop what's outside. If you leave, chances are you'll be killed by giant slimy green people with very sharp claws, an excellent sense of smell and bad flatulence. I'll just sit here and watch with my jelly beans."

He took a seat and propped his feet up on the desk.
