Top Ten Worst School Assignments

The Top Ten
1 Science Fair

It's quite easy, as I did an award winning lava lamp for 1st and 2nd grade. During 5th, I was ripped off by some girls, but the award winner was some sort of machine.

I'm tired of doing those

They're not that bad.

2 Five Paragraph Essay

Highschool is all about the essays! :)
Last year we had to do an essay on William Shakespeare, and Elizabeth Barrett Browning (A famous poet during the 1800s, if you didn't know :) ), she was known for her love poems to her husband, she was compared to William Shakespeare, which is obviously a very high honor.

Was assigned one in science and it was ridiculously repetitive about buoyancy and Newton's 3rd law or something. I felt so condescending repeating the same concept in different wording so many times...

The only "good" essays I ever written were fiction stories about 2 crazy robloxians named Supernoob and MLG Doge. I bet every single teacher that read it either stared at the terrible drawings or cringed to death.

3 Multi-Part Research Project

I had a history assignment where we had to research ancient egypt. In total we had the assingment for 2 months and I was working until the due date. we had to research and then write an 'extended response' which is another word for 3 page long and over 3000 words. it was torture. and, on top of all that, half the class didn't pass

4 Summer Reading

I read over the summer anyways, so I don't really see a problem!

This year we are going to do Harry potter for summer reading

I never do summer reading but I still pass

5 Read a Whole Book In a Week

Though to my own credit, I'm a very speedy reader, anything that involves reading is really quite an awesome assignment to me! Unless it's boring or repetitive, no offense to Oliver Twist or anything, I'm sure the story is really good, but Dicken's can be very redundant. I imagine the book could be half as long if all of the "extra" words were taken out!

I can do that, I just skip the words like "The wind blew on the footpath" or whatever. But there mustn't be much homework in that week.

I can read a 400 page book in 2 days--- easy. While I lended my friend a 300 page book and she said it'd take her a month to finish it.

I don't mind this at all. This is easy, since I love to read.

6 Dissection

You think frogs are bad and gross? I had to disect something an owl regurgitated. It was disgusting, it had bones in it.

I did it to an earthworm and a frog once. It was cool and gross at the same time.

I had to do this to a squid and a rat once. It was pretty weird.

Think of all the frogs we could've saved.

7 Essay

Any essay that requires at least 3 pages=TORTURE

Especially the 3-5 page ones.

I had to type 10 PAGES once!

8 Bring Your Pet to School

My dog would bite, so I would have to keep him in a cage.

Bringing my hamster to school would be so awesome

That would be awesome.

This would rock

9 Video/Movie Questions
10 Making Models
The Contenders
11 Copywriting
12 Presentation

Presentation is just plain horrible. My writing teacher makes us do it for our daily 1 paragraph journals. For the friday journals with 2 paragraphs she actually grades everyone's journals.

13 What Did You Do Over the Break?

A typical reply of mine if I had to do these:

Over the summer, I stayed home the entire time while my relatives cousins went on awesome vacation. My sister took a billion summer classes and my parents are boring as hell cause they don't want to go anywhere. I just eat, sleep, and played on the computer all day long. That's my summer vacation. The end.

14 10+ Page Essay

I struggle with writing essays a lot. I have trouble with even 2-3 page essays sometimes, and once a teacher made me type TEN.
