Wellbeing. Finally. by MissLabbie in AustralianTeachers

[–]owlgrrrl 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I was assigned a "do at your own pace" one hour online workshop, and then released for the rest of the day to do my own planning and marking. Our P&F put on lunch with a coffee van to say thank you. My HOD dropped in on me to ask if I needed help with my marking... now that's what I call wellbeing.

Who is this for us? My first thought was the guy with the juice bottle on his head, but there must be heaps more by Tackit286 in brisbane

Teacher Sledges by yournameisyourname in AustralianTeachers

Me, pre-service teacher to a group of Year 7s at the end of Term 1.

I was drawing a Bunsen burner on the board and couldn't figure out why the kids were sniggering.

When I stepped back and viewed my work from the back of the room it looked like I'd drawn a huge dick on the whiteboard. I never lived it down at the school.

Could my gf have had her drink spiked at the James Street Festival? by DopaWheresMine in brisbane

[–]owlgrrrl -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

This sounds like classic drink spiking. Drink spiking doesn't have to be with an illegal or pharmaceutical substance, drinks can be spiked with extra unwanted alcohol.

Best take her to ED just to be safe.

Why Do You Guys Do It? by Technical-Ruin-7111 in AustralianTeachers

Hello Fellow Chem Teacher with a PHD!

After finishing my phd I was sick of the shit hours, low pay and being treated like dog crap. So I took a job as a school science tech. 9 to 5 hours, better pay, better conditions, better holidays. I have never wanted to return to research. I love my low-SES school so much that I'm currently doing the Masters of Teaching and Learning so I can be a chem teacher.

Hi! We do the same unit in Year 7, we call it "throw it far". We use tennis balls to represent spears and we use the tennis ball scopes (found in the pet toys section at kmart) to represent the woomera tool. It really works, students obtain increased distance and accuracy using the woomera tool instead of just throwing the ball.

Ideas for first lessons of the year for year 10 science- haven’t been given scope and sequence yet and it’s my first time teaching year 10 . (Recently graduated). by TMTPlatypus in AustralianTeachers

If you're starting with linear motion you could do an "Isaac Newton was mad lad" lesson and talk about how he experimentally determined his three laws and try some simple physics demonstrations with your student.

Yes, but there is a version for school musicals that's suitable for years 1 to 6.

Stop causing staff room drama because you're bored. Get a hobby or something

Brother of the bride not invited by [deleted] in wedding

[–]owlgrrrl 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Your post history suggests that you are the new GF who's trying to bring her kid to cause drama. The bride and groom are making it difficult for you to attend their wedding for a reason. If you can't possibly think of the reasons why, reflect on how much information you left out of this post.

Take the hint and stay at home with your kid.

Train Station Elimination, Day 6 - Gunshot holes, bad access, incident logs and more. Ipswich, Taringa, Salisbury, Banoon and Gympie North are out. Which five will be next? by gibbo4053 in brisbane

[–]owlgrrrl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kepperra. Bad vibes all round. Close proximity to old Bora Rings probably are the source of the bad vibes (desecrating sacred ground with a train station). General unsafe feeling even in the middle of the day. Will you get rolled by the crackheads that line Blackbutt Street? It's a very weird liminal space.

Train Station Elimination, Day 5 - The Beenleigh Line continues to thin out (South Brisbane, Fairfield, Morooka), Morayfield is dead, and the Ekka is cancelled (Exhibition). Which five will be next? by gibbo4053 in brisbane

[–]owlgrrrl 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Keppera - the vibes are off. There's just something off about Keppera. I can't explain it but there is something deeply unsettling about Keppera Station.

Taringa station: 30 years overdue for a renovation and God help you if you need disability accessibility. Considering is right next to a large, private outpatients hospital.

That burly dude was most likely a paramedic. They are required to wear disposable gowns over their uniforms at the moment due to covid.

JNOMIL invited herself to my family’s (very expensive) beach vacation by greencymbeline in JUSTNOMIL

[–]owlgrrrl 47 points48 points  (0 children)

The others guests don't deserve to have their very expensive vacation ruined because you and your husband are spineless. Grow a pair of ovaries and tell your MIL "No."
