Facepalm Moment

Today in my first period, I was teaching weather expressions in Spanish. One of the activities from the book was asking what the weather was like in certain places in a certain month. For example:

En Louisiana en noviembre

One of my students didn't know where Lousiana was. One of the students next her said "Do you know where New Orleans is" and she responded "Whats that?"

I seriously facepalmed right there. Our country is doomed if this is our future.

how old?

i still don't have a great knowledge of geography.

10th grader. I can understand not knowing exactly where its at, but you should at least know its in the south east.

And like it or not (despite mother nature's attempts) New Orleans is still a major city. I can't believe she didn't know what it was.

Wow what an idiot. Has she never heard of Mardi Gras? That would probably be the only thing she would recognize maybe....but yeah she was around when Katrina hit...

Props to you for teaching Espanol, I love the language.

Ha, thanks. The favorite thing I get in class is "Do I have to answer this in Spanish?" or "You know we don't speak Spanish right?

Really? 10th grade and if you don't know the states and roughly where they are at in the US. Then it's a good thing 12/21/12 is alomst here, because we are doomed for that next generation to take over.

      Film breakdown.

      Some more film breakdown this time highlighting the Panthers offense vs Packers defense.  Interesting to note the Panthers were facing 8 man boxes throughout the game amd still were able to rush for over 160 yards against the Pack. We're not talking about Miami or Dallas defense here, we're talking about Green Bay the 3rd ranked defense against the run going into that game selling out to stop the run and still struggling to do so.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion in Here)

      Another example of Bryce playing chess that casuals wouldn’t notice or appreciate

      By strato · Posted

      I was just looking at Doug Flutie this morning. A better passer than Bryce and I think maybe a better runner.  You know what he had to go through to make the NFL? A whole lot. 4 years of being a top CFL guy, had to take a big pay cut to be a backup in Buffalo, just to get his foot in the door. people wouldn’t give a shot because of his size. They were smart back then.    He was legit, did more than anything Bryce has shown so far, but these modern participation trophy types just handed Bryce an NFL starting job.  And we are still waiting for him to prove he deserves it.
