High School

Yeah. Dont pick any of the low-hanging fruit(sarcasm) like Castro, Mao, Stalin/Lenin, Gorbachev, Noriega, Gandhi...

We've already learned about most of those people, so I'd need to go pretty on depth with the research.
Presentation needs to be 10 minutes.
2 minutes, brief background of Senna, on track achievements.
4 minutes, improving safety of F1, how it carries over to us.
4 minutes uniting Brazil.
 
Why did you include Gandhi in that list?

Are you telling me that Gandhi made no impact on his country whatsoever...

I wouldnt say that Ayrton Senna made any impact on the history of the greater world.

On motorsport? Certainly. but from the perspective of Modern World History.... a more prominent figure would be better i think. Unless you have one of those teachers who lets you push the envelope as long as it is mildy on-topic, because then you do it about something you like, and put in more effort.
 
Your post suggested that people avoided dissection because they had "respect for the dead". And I can maybe understand that if they were dissecting a human heart - but they're not. They're dissecting a sheep's heart. I was simply pointing out that when people eat lamb, they're hardly "showing respect for the dead", so why would they do it when dissecting a heart?
 
I know it's a bit late to respond to this but...

On the topic of dissections on the last page, years ago I remember dissecting an earth worm. It was awesome. The thing had five hearts and its poop was just dirt. It was awesome.
 
To continue the discussion of good fake answers. Our history teacher once put this answer on a test.

"How did Mexico gain presence in North America?"
A) Sailed Across the Ocean
B) Gained independence from Spain
C) Hopped the border

Got a few chuckles.
 
As it's the Year 11's last day tomorrow, they set the fire alarms off so we missed 20 minutes of History. There is also a rumour that they've put either Viagra or laxatives in the water system.
 
Got the results on my history mock, got an A* however that was only because it was on the cold war and red scare, stuff that I find genuinely interesting.

Also had my GCSE computing exam, went well in all, answered all of the questions with ease, some were weirdly worded though so I just hope I put the right stuff down.

Our Year 11s went on study leave last week, though nothing untoward happened. At least I get into lunch sooner. :D

Apparently, they are all going to come into school at the same time tomorrow and do a conga around the whole school.

Anyway, in French class today, I made a great joke which had even my teacher laughing. One of my friends across the other side of the classroom was playing with a hair clip. He said, "I don't know how girls can't feel it when it's in. I then said something along the lines of "That's what she said"

I think I say that just about every lesson, still never gets old. Today my maths teacher had a big box of test and papers and stuff of that nature, she went on and said "Damn my box is full of so much junk" and like it's a natural reflex I immediately went "That's what she said!". Not gloating but someone fell off their chair. XD

That joke never gets old 👍 .
 
Speaking of End-Of-Year pranks, my year has decided to get multiple inflatable sex dolls, dress them up with uniform, fill 'em up with helium and tie them up to numerous places around the school. Like security cameras, flagpoles etc.

I wish my class of 2013 was that cool.... Don't overdo it you guys still have to come back for senior year next year, unless school is shorter wherever you are.

Stupidest thing I've ever heard :lol:

Then I suppose you haven't heard that song hot problems, because everyone who hears it, it literally is the stupidest thing they've ever heard.
