Packages by Expedia. You were made to occasionally take the hard route to the top of the Eiffel Tower.

We were made to easily bundle your trip. Expedia made to travel. Flight inclusive packages are at all

protected. Some teachers go way too far, and today is no exception. Buckle in, as in today's story time, the teacher calls a

kid fatphobic for not being fat himself. Let's jump in. So we're going to call the subscriber

who submitted today's story, Kyle. So anyways, right, Kyle was in the sixth grade, and in one of

his classes, they had an assignment. And this assignment

was, pick something about your life that you are genuinely passionate about, make a presentation,

and present it to the class. The whole point of the presentation was to learn skills of public

speaking. I think this was like, I don't know if this was specifically a public

speaking class, is that almost seems a little bit too specific for sixth grade. But it was some

kind of class where they were either, it was public speaking, or they were going over a public speaking

unit. And the assignment said, you can choose whatever topic, as long as it's appropriate,

right, you can't be like, oh, these are my top 10 favorite. I can't say that. I can't say that. I got kids watching, man. But as long as it was appropriate, there was no real, the grading wasn't based on the content itself. It was really just trying to motivate kids to have fun with this project and learn how to speak in front of the class. I think this is a genius idea, and I really wish that that was more like a focus

in fifth, fourth, sixth grade, whatever. Because honestly, public speaking and speaking in front

of your classmates is going to be such a major part of high school and college and potentially

what you do later on at work if you have to

present to your I don't know your fellow people who work at your company or whatever right so I think

that's a really great idea and Kyle the subscriber was a big fan of the gym so when you're in sixth

grade you can't really get to like big I don't you can't become like deadlifting 12,000 pounds, right? But, you know, you can still

go to the gym workout, and it's a great thing. It's a great lifelong activity, and I highly suggest

it, right? Gym good. But yeah, so Kyle was a really big fan. You know, he would go many times a day,

you know, he'd lift some weights, he would run, and he really like getting into the science behind it. And honestly, I think that's pretty cool because there's a lot of science behind it, but it's cool to see a kid kind of get into something a little bit more technical. And maybe he even wants to go into sports medicine. Maybe he wants to start a career this way. What I'm trying to say is this is something that should be encouraged.
