Food Container Worksheet: Fill & Download for Free

A little background first. My high school was founded in the year 1954. It's more aged than my parents are, so, naturally, it's a little bit rundown sometimes and spacing is definitely inadequate.My school just implemented a new rule this year: students may not buy food from the cafeteria and eat it elsewhere like in the library or music wing. Last year, they didn't have this rule, lunch was a blast. I would go to the cafeteria, buy cheap cafeteria food, head up to the library, and eat/study. I would never eat in the cafeteria because one, it was wayyy too crowded and the space was too small to contain the masses of students. Two, it was far too loud and often annoying. I don't like being in large crowds of people that I know. It's not my thing. Furthermore, you couldn't do any work if you needed to. Because of this, I would prefer to just go to the library so I can multitask and be productive.This year, they decided that it would be “too messy” if kids kept bringing cafeteria food elsewhere, so for the duration of lunch, they would station staff outside of the lunchroom so that we couldn't leave. They would shut and lock the doors and make sure that no student could leave. If you exited to go to the bathroom, they would turn you right back. One time, I even had the brilliant idea of sneaking into the bathroom, and then go elsewhere after I exited it. They caught me exiting the bathroom and sent me straight into the cafeteria again, even though I had claimed that I was never in there in the first place, (which was a lie, but dang, I just wanted some freedom).Also, if you were caught with cafeteria food in the library, the librarians will literally take your food from you if you refused to leave.There are three issues in this system:1. Students will be messy. Students will eat in the library. There's a thing called home lunch. They will still produce trash, and trash will still end up on the ground and on the table. Moreover, compared to last year when there was no rule, the library is still as messy as ever! That's just how high schoolers are. Sometimes when we're in a rush, things get left behind, while some of us are just too lazy. Which isn't good, but also isn't something you can just enforce.2. This sytem creates a big issue for kids who have social anxiety. Take me for example. I don't have social anxiety specifically, but I find myself very much uncomfortable surrounded by so many people like in the cafeteria. The library has fewer people and offers more secluded spaces for some quiet alone time. Therefore, when you force kids to stay in the lunchroom, it can be a large issue for some.3. In continuation of the issue above, one might say, why can't they just bring their own lunch? The thing is that not all kids have the luxury of bringing their own food everyday. That can get expensive. The food at the cafeteria is very affordable and sometimes the one hardy meal that some students can get in a day. Take that and mix it with the anxiety factor, and it's not a good blend.All in all, stop making school a literal jail for us. Lunch is the one half-hour where our heads aren't being forced into the textbooks, worksheets, and chromebooks. This rule doesn't make a difference in the school's wellbeing and besides, we need a renovation anyway. We're basically suffocating. Cut us some slack, we're responsible enough.

6 year old school routine:8:00am: Arrive at school, the teacher has arranged some fun activities for the little kiddies. The teacher first starts the day by reading the class a book and then gives the kids a colouring sheet regarding the story.9:00am: It’s art & craft time! The teacher brings out the art supplies and then the kids spend the next hour creating marvellous artwork out of crayons, feathers and Play-Doh.10:00am: Recess! Kids get 40 minutes to bomb around outside and play with their friends and have a huge, brightly coloured play set to enjoy equipped with a swing set, monkey bars and a slide. Don’t forget the sandpit! Kids play with their toys with their friends at recess.10:40am: Rest time! Everyone is tired from playing on the play set during recess so everyone pulls out a brightly coloured pillow to sleep on.11:00am: English lessons: Teacher educates the kids on how to spell the names of different animals, ‘chicken’ ‘cow’ ‘sheep’ ‘dog’ ‘cat’, and are given a colouring sheet of said animals to colour in, as well as a simple un-jumbling words worksheet.12:00 Midday: Math lessons: The math flash cards are brought out with simple addition and subtraction problems on them, as well as a fun little song to get the kids engaged. 1 fish + 1 fish= 2 fish! *class claps* The class is given a sheet of numbers to colour in with simple addition questions. The teacher is standing by in case any students need help.1:00pm: Lunchtime!: The children go outside and spend another 40 minutes playing with their friends while the teacher organises the next set of fun activities.1:40pm: History: The kids learn about the First Fleet arriving in Australia in the 1700’s and about the big bad convicts that were brought over. Children are given a simple worksheet to test their memory as well as a colouring sheet.2:30pm: Kids are given some free time to draw, colour and do whatever they please! There is no homework to worry about!2:50pm: The teacher reads one last story to the children before they can go home.3:00pm: Class is dismissed, the kids go home not wanting to leave their classmates.Parent: “How was school honey?”6 Year old: “Brilliant!, we learned how to spell in English, we learned about the First Fleet and I played with Terry in the new sandpit!”Temperamental 17 year old’s school routine:8:00am: Arrival8:30am: Classes begin- first of the day is Math Applications: Lesson on matrices and an investigation set for Wednesday. Not to mention the 2 pages of revision homework that you’ve been set. Math isn’t exactly your strong point, you’re not terrible but you are competent.9:30am: English ATAR: You are given a 200 page novel that must be read by the end of the week. For each section you are given 10 questions for homework and the book has 5 sections. These must be completed. No exceptions or you will get an Email sent home and/or detention and a note from parents explaining why said homework wasn’t completed. You are constantly reminded that Year 11 goes towards your WACE mark that could make or break your career. You are constantly pressured to pass Year 11 English.10:45am: Form: This 15 minutes is the only time you really have an opportunity to chat with your friends.11:00am: Lunch 1: You are only given 30 minutes for lunch 1 so you hurry to the canteen as fast as you can while lugging a heavy bag full of books over your shoulder. You arrive at the canteen and already half the school is lined up! You wait 20 minutes to get your food, which is nice but only have 10 more minutes to eat it. If you dare to be late to your next class then you’d get a detention.11:30am: Geography ATAR: This is a class you like, but you are given a 10 page research assignment that must be finished in 5 days. The assignment must contain references to where you sourced your information or it’s 10 marks taken off right there. It cannot be late, or otherwise you’d get 10% taken off per day that it’s late.12:25pm: French ATAR: French is another subject you quite like but then you are given a list of 15 questions that you must write and memorise answers for, which you are then tested on in 4 days. Doesn’t help that you’re expected remember all that info and you’re not a native French speaker.1:20pm: Lunch 2: Same drill as before, you spend 20 minutes getting something from the canteen and 10 minutes eating.1:50pm: General studies: You have an hour of general studies and you think that you can relax, right? WRONG! The supervising teachers expect you to be doing work so you get started on your 200 page novel hoping to lighten your workload but out of nowhere, your general studies teacher unloads a 2 page essay on *blah blah* that must handed in by tomorrow.2:50pm: The middle schoolers get to go home 10 mins before you do.3:00pm: You finally get to go home and sleep, but now you have a minimum of 2 hours of study time before you can relax!4:30pm: You don’t get home until 4:30, because your school bus was suuuuper late *grumble*Parent: “How was your day at school”Temperamental 17 year old: “Fine” (dies inside)I can understand why us 17 year olds aren’t enthusiastic about school. We are constantly given assessments, homework and stress on top of our personal lives. Sometimes I think that teachers forget that 17 year olds like me have lives outside of school and that we have all the time in the world to study. We don’t. We have family to deal with and our own personal hobbies. We are constantly reminded that our overall grade in Year 11 determines our grades in Year 12 and so forth. We are constantly reminded that our grades go towards our WACE score or ATAR score which is really competitive. All I see it as kids being compared to the super academic kids to make them feel unworthy, like they’re not trying hard enough.Sometimes I feel like I wish I was 6, back when they made lessons fun to learn. I don’t see the need for me to learn something that I’m never gonna use in my career. I don’t see me putting the use of language features or rhetorical devices when I want my career to be based in the aviation industry.And then they wonder why a grumpy 17 year old isn’t interested in school? (I’m not saying all 17 year olds are like this)

Microsoft Excel.I have a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet containing several connecting worksheets. The first is an overview, showing anticipated income and outgoings for the next three months. The results are linked to my several bank accounts, so I can see projected money over the coming three months.This overview worksheet also lists all of my creditors and debtors, together with accrued pay and accrued rent. My debts include the money currently owned on my credit card including recent transactions. This produces an overall total of my net financial situation.There’s a supporting worksheet which records my weekly spending. I record all of my spending. Weekly spending is set against a weekly budget based on my income less fixed costs including rent, bills and pension contributions.There’s another worksheet for holidays (vacations), where I estimate a daily budget for travel, accommodation, local transport, food and drinks.
