Related to this there was this one kid I overheard in the 3rd grade saying that isn’t very Johnny Cash of you and I can imaging him having sex in a locker while the trumpet intro to Ring of Fire plays then him coming in a week letter with an STD singing it burns burns burns the ring of fire
Health class was traumatizing bro. Imagine going up to your friends, telling them that you've seen some things you can't unsee, but you can't even explain it, because then it'll be awkward.
That sounds like my experience, except the school brought in someone who goes from school to school teaching this stuff, someone that seemed way less profesional or qualified than any of my other teachers.
I remember a fifth grade puberty video and every boy left the class laughing to suffocation, and the girls had the saddest, most disappointed faces Ive ever seen.
Before getting "The talk" I knew that babies come from your Mom's belly mainly because my mom used to work at a hospital, but I used to believe that a baby just spawned in the mom's belly whenever she was ready to have kids. I was scarred for life when me and my class watched a well detailed documentary lecturing us about how babies are really made. The pictures are STILL burned in my memory.
In my state, every freshman in high school has to take a health course for half a year. God, was it dreadful. I remember the three units we had: Mental Health, Sexual Health, and Drugs and Alcohol. The MH and drugs unit were good, but the sexual health unit sucked. I remember when we had a test on sex and how many of my classmates miserably failed it.
@@bzgamer41 we don't have that in Russia (as well as most of Europe), and it... kinda sucks, because a lot of people are getting surprised by different "tricks of human body"
In my Health Class our teacher showed us a video of HER having her baby. Worst thing of all, we all knew the kid in person because he was only one year older then us and in the same school. So yeah, I technically saw the birth of my senior (my school is from first grade until you totally graduate in 12th grade)
I did an STD card game type thing in both 8th and 9th grade too but it was supposed to illustrate how fast they can spread so we had to “sleep” with a certain amount of classmates and see how many STDs we had at the end 😭
My health class in high school, aka my first real health class, the teacher was pretty young (mid-20s or so), and she was super chill. She'd crack jokes and didn't stop people from talking about the topic. So that class was actually enjoyable
My main problem with health class in the earlier grades is that they sugarcoat it a lot. Like I get that you don’t want to make things too awkward, but like, the subject itself is already awkward, even when you sugarcoat it, so why not give it to them straight and at least guarantee that kids will walk away with something important learned?
Right!? Like, my friend had to go on a training camp as a part of a co-curricular she did, and she got taught properly without sugar-coating it, then I looked back on what we learnt in class and it’s crazy how little we actually learnt.
When I was in 6th grade, my math teacher straight up told us that the reason why the AC was always on is so he doesn't have to smell anyone's body odor.
@@loaf1verse because school is a way to train young kids to be another cog in the machine. School isn’t a place of learning, especially today with the agenda of a certain alphabet mafia being pushed.
My memory of health class is this: I remember everyone was dreading the day, and my teacher told us to be respectful, it's ok to giggle, etc. I sadly already knew everything she was going to say, so I embraced the inner English nerd in me and started typing random shit on a Google doc. Whether it was Shakespeare or how many leaves are in the world, I was creating a distraction for myself. My teacher started showing, well, images, the kids were being annoying and gigling, and my teacher looked at me and said "oh, are you already asking questions? (She linked a private question website thing) I told her "no, I just don't have to know this again because I already know, so I'm going to type and ignore this) And she thanked me for my honestly and let me continue This tool longer than I thought to type, but that's my story on health class.
Our middle school class was actually quite tame with health discussions. Our high school health classes though, oh man. The class would phrase the terminology as inappropriately as humanly possible. And for CPR health, surprisingly tame, but we have that one kid that decided to start making out with the CPR dummy. I did laugh at that one though. Also modern health classes are now 99% don’t do drugs, don’t vape, etc. and 1% everything else.
i remember the nurse coming in, all the male fourth graders we're in my homeroom, while the females went to a different room. God, we were all laughing at that puberty video! We were warned but, WE COULDN'T HOLD THAT IN.!
That reminds me that when I was in 5th grade, randomly in the middle of the day, my teacher sent the boys to lunch earlier because she wanted to "talk to the girls." So we were standing in line, confused. 10 minutes later, the girls came back and obviously we were trying to figure out what happened, but they couldn't say. I still don't know what it was.. (dun dun dun!)
I remember in seventh grade during a health class they were going over how the reproductive organs worked and I was disturbed to say the least…I think I was on the verge of legit having a mental breakdown that I had to leave the classroom.
I remember in my 5th grade health class, they showed us a video explaining everything and I remember it saying "During puberty, girls get moody" and tiny 5th grade me was like "Bitch I don't believe that" And tbh I still don't. I think we get moody because life becomes very stressful at this age, and instead of people trying to comfort us and help us they just say "Oh, they're just moody" and move on. I could be very wrong about being moody and puberty and stuff, but this is my personal opinion. Tbh I think people need to try helping kids through tough times instead of just saying "They're moody" and vertending like that's the problem. I especially am saying this because for most people puberty starts at around the same time you have to start doing new things and trying to adjust to that can be really hard for people, so they start acting moody.
5:50 my teacher did a game like this but with dyed green water. Basically every round you’d exchange half of your glass of water with someone elses, and if your water turned green ya got infected. Shit was wild
Health class is one of the few classes that I enjoyed learning about because it actually taught me stuff that would be useful. In middle school it was basically "drug bad". In highschool though they taught us a lot of stuff. Obviously we were taught stuff like puberty and stds, but we were also taught about mental health, fitness and nutrition, and actual dangers and effects of schedule I and II drugs. Also helps that the teacher was chill and relatable.
I kinda think everyone should be in the same room, no matter how awkward. It helps people learn about what both their sex and the opposite sex go through. This is good for if you get together with someone who hasn’t been educated, so you can help teach them. Also good for teaching your kids through an educated lens instead of learning from google five minutes ago
In primary and currently secondary school (high school for the americans). I live in ireland maybe thats why were in the same class diffrent school system etc.
I’m in 7th grade, and I did health class for the first time in 5th grade. The sexual health unit was probably the least bad in that year. We mostly learned about dating advice and healthy relationships. But the teacher at the end of class each day gave us a piece of paper where we wrote “anonymous questions.” The actual class wasn’t to bad, but the questions were wild bro. When the teacher shared them the next day, some people asked what does a vagina taste like, and even a person asked what a “gyatt” is 💀
Had this in fifth grade, I didn’t care about “wet dreams” “downstairs” or deodorant, I just wanted to head back outside and play kickball with the homies
One time, my health teacher demonstrated why people want babys. The health teacher speed run 100 squats, and then yelled "MY PREGNANCY TEST IS NEGATIVE 😭" which made me scarred for life. Then I had to take it again, yet again, she scarred me. I had to watch birth, while she talked over using words like rad, dope, or wack. Swear to God my health teach would make a great south park character💀
People in my old middle school would pulverize them and inhale the powder to blow it out like a smoke. I know because I was known as "the smartie kid". I mean every day like clockwork I would have a smartie on me, was probably worse for me than a cigarette honestly SMH.
Omg when I was in 5th grade we played math bingo and my teacher was giving out smarties as one of the prizes and half the class wanted the smarties so they could snort them and my teacher had to take them all away 😭😭😭
Health class/sex ed at my school was next level. We watched a 2 hour documentary about a kids body going through changes and someone wrote a question on paper which the teacher answered:"What is the pull out method". Wasnt bad though cuz I was at the back of the class with da boys.
My health class was taught by the basketball coach, so he just told you to skim through the book and answer the questions in the back, and he would blindly grade the tests and gives you at least a 97 no matter what.
I remember in my health class we were going to play a lil game thing, and while the teacher was explaining she said "I'm going to give you all STDs" and we were all saying the typical things you'd expect from a room of 8th graders
in my school, when they mentioned the eggplant, the whole room of like 15-20 boys starting laughing like horses and the teacher tried to calm us down, but we couldnt
Imagine you have a good day and when you go into Health Class, your teacher turns a video of puberty in front of 25 people, and to make everyone uncomfortable and unpleasant.
Bro I'll say it, health class regardless of what ya learning about will forever be awkward and strange to be in, it don't matter what yall learning about it be wild in those classrooms.
I remember one of my friends told me that when it was his classes turn for health class, some kids went out crying because how insanely graphic it was, we were in middle school btw
I've only taken health class in high school but by then I already knew more than any kid should be legally aloud to know. So my teacher was interesting as she would say "while drugs are bad I'm not gonna be the one to tell you no, it's your choice at the end of the day". Ironically though if you snickerd if she said v****a or p***s you got sent to the hallway
I was in 5th grade when it happened and I actually enjoy it because my health teacher(we switched teachers for health for a whole marking period) was male and made funny jokes and told hilarious stories and we watched an actual hour and 30-minute movie in the last few classes. Btw don't ask me the name of it I forgot. Edit: looked up the name it's called, Little Giants, also he was 31 at the time and that was about a year ago.
I swear the only thing in health class I remember was when we talked about STD’s my friend openly joked about his ex in class was trying to get all of them like Pokémon making me laugh during a serious discussion
Bro, my health class teacher had the most tragic stories of people he knew in his back pocket. There were so many times we all just were so confused on how to act because it was so awkward with him getting super emotional, like, what type of people are you around? There were so many drug, OD, ED, and SH stories he told us he started adding trigger warnings before the lessons. And the sex ed was just so silent with all of us to awkward to stare at the board of him lecturing
I used the quadratic formula to turn an electric resistance + arduino into a thermometer . I measured points (tension in function of temperature), put them on a graph , asked the software (excel or regressi) to do a polynomial interpolation. It did the interpolation and gave me the function, I did reverse the equation to obtain temperature in function of tension . It was for my internship that I had to do in my electrical engineering curriculum (the subject was to make a battery management system, so I had to shut off the alimentation if the current/tension/or temperature was to high) (also had to equilibrate the tensions between18650 batteries).
yeah we learned about puberty for one day in like 6th grade and that was it. never again. now that i'm in health class in 9th, we're learning about drugs and vaping and why they're bad because of the sheer amount of people vaping at school. just made a presentation on a drug i've never heard of before because all the good ones like mushrooms, crack, and ketamine were taken
In 6th grade my class had this lesson and for some goofy reason, i yelled out "why do we need to know this" in front of everyone, including my teacher who already didnt like me very much. Also they didnt separate boys and girls so were just sitting there trying to learn about diks but all we can hear is the girls do stupid giggle noises. Also also in 9th grade we had a more R rated version lesson but it wasnt a nurse or urologist or an abortion doctor teaching us, but instead we had a fkin police officer explain how nutting works to us.
At that point I feel like they’d just play PH on the smart board if they show 9th graders an R rated explanation on nutting and have an officer come in to explain it
Ye exactly, how did school think it’s a good idea to teach such mature topics to little teenagers? I’m not trying to be rude here but showing women giving birth with no censors in school is beyond normal, it’s fuckin weird
@@ankushparmar2662 i remember some loser saying that "lgbtq+ being pushed on children and sex ed at school si not grooming!" like dude your parents should be telling you this stuff and they shouldnt be showing real footage of it
Dude in my health class for some reason THE BOYS AND GIRLS STAY IN THE SAME CLASSROOM, AND WHAT MAKES IT EVEN WORSE, IS THAT THE SEATING PLAN IS BOY GIRL BOY GIRL, WHICH MEANS, WE SIT NEXT TO THE OPPOSITE GENDER WHICH MAKES 100X MORE AWKWARD.
(4th)Lol I already knew about periods quite a bit so I was unfazed UNTIL SHE STARTED GOING OVER THE PARTS. When she got to the Cl!+ I was sweating because REASONS. (Oh yeah, I didn’t get a bag either soooo yeah, I hadn’t and still haven’t gotten it sooooo yeah)
4:39 My sister is currently in school to be a meturnity nurse, and when she shared with a C-section really entails, I was traumatized just by the thought of it.
Oh no I found some old medical documents my mom had that went into detail describing my birth. September 17, 2006 must have been one hell of a day considering all that happened then.
