    My science teacher's take on the traditional rule "Always follow the recipe"

    Ok, so today, RIGHT AFTER LUNCH, I had science. Now Ms. Coletta was going to demonstrate WHY EXACTLY you have to follow your hypothsis in an experiment. Last year, she had her students make a list of how to cook an egg. Yeah, that sounds idiotic, but you'll be glad when you read on. So, she demonstared how poor the recipe was. 1. Crack an egg. She made a little dent in the egg. 2. Put on fryer. She puts the unopened egg (with the little dent she calls a "crack") Now here's where it gets interesting...3. Cook for 30 seconds. Then, she put the STILL unopened egg on the burner, WITHOUT TURNING IT ON. The next part is that turns the egg over. That's "flipping" it. After, it says put salt on. She said to us, "I will , but the recipie doesn't say how much" So she puts on 5 TABLESPOONS OF SALT. Then (this is the funniest one and the nastiest one) put TABASCO SAUCE on the egg. And guess what...she did.

    And last step...enjoy!

    ...

    and here's the gross part.

    Ms. Coletta bit into the egg, uncracked, covered in salt and tabasco sauce. We were disgusted. Then she ran to the sink, spit it out, and promptly threw up. Then she said she was ok, had a whole can of Coke, and we watched a movie on YouTube about the old "Exploding Mentos" experiment. We get to do it on Friday.

    Still, it was fun.

    Sheesh, I can't wait till Friday.

    My bio teacher gave us all a dead frog magnet. It's a crusty, dead frog, with a magnet glued under it. He has so fuxxing many of them. He uses them for everything.

      I wish all my teachers threw up during class...that would make things a lot more interesting.

        That's a pretty well-learned lesson I'd say.

        Our directions for how to write an Instructional Essay were to write the rules of Texas Hold 'Em. It took us an hour and we didn't finish. Nobody did.

          you live in Bedford, Massachusetts and go to John Glenn Middle School

          Ms. Coletta did the same thing in my class 5 years ago
          that was her first year teaching

          I'm not kidding

            I see stuff like this everywhere, except it's about making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. We do it every year at school for some reason. I'm always surprised that the people who instruct the sandwich-maker still screw up.

              Friday is my birthday.

              My Honors chem teacher was explaining....something.
              I think it was to clean up after any spill.
              He dropped a match on a desk full of "liquid" and it went up in flames.
              Everyone was like, 'OHHHH FIRE!!!!"

                Ya, sciene will always do this to you.

                And supposedly, if done correctly, you should always finish whatevery you are doing at the same time if you follow the instructions correctly.

                Our class just had a 51-minute lab, there are 52-minutes. If you missed even the slightest of a minute, you won't finish. If you don't finish, then the old rule was suppose to be you failed, but I guess that didn't happen this year.

                We finished EXACTLY at 51, and a lot of it was time pressured.

                  Wow.

                  So you're in 10th grade now?

                  Sheesh, i'm sure she doesn't remember...

                  (Was she Team Leader then?)

                  PS: She seemed a little pale when I had science...although she claims she fine. And anyway, who does that if they're not your science teacher? OUR science teacher brought her in to demonstrate. Jeez, I remember when Ms. Coletta was my science teacher. Good times.

                    haha
                    I'm in 11th grade.

                    but yeah. There was no tabasco in our class. She only ate it through the shell.

                    She was in no position of importance when I was there. She was a new teacher. There were also no teams. Those didn't start until I was in 7th grade. There was no A wing. School was under construction. Coletta didn't even have a room. She was a crazy teacher.

                      She still is. In 6th grade, she went all psycho-manic-I-love-candy-spree after Halloween. She walked around all day with a HUGE basket and held it up to people to put candy in. That was our homwork assignment. She said, "Ok people, if you can hear my voice clap once, blah blah I LIKE REESE'S CUPS AND 3 MUSKETEERS blah blah DING-DONG go terrorize Miss Mallott blah blah blah DON'T FORGET THE CANDY."

                      Yeah.
