Watching my way through Knowledge Network documentaries: "The First Inventors" (2023)

four 45m episodes

"Rob Collins rediscovers the ancient innovations and scientific inventions of Australia's First People - the world's oldest living culture."

Episode 1 - From engineering volcanic landscapes into fish farms to mastering deadly fire, unique survival inventions let Australia's First People thrive for millennia.

Episode 2 - Long before the invention of writing, Australia's First People accurately recorded and passed on knowledge over thousands of years.

Episode 3 - Interconnectedness is central to First Nations knowledge systems. Australia is filled with many nations, languages and cultural differences - how did everyone know how to interact and get along?

Episode 4 - The knowledge and innovation of Australia's First Nations can provide ways of addressing the greatest challenges facing humanity, from climate change to challenges to civil society.

#episode 2 was my favourite of the four :) #doc recs #the first inventors #documentaries

btw - one of the word problems we did today was "if this person's change was 36 cents and it was three coins, what coins were they" and these poor kids were SO confused bc they were born in 2016 and we haven't had pennies since 2012 so they just. couldn't conceive of a coin that's only one cent, they kept forgetting that it was an option so they were just coming up with combos that made 35 or 40 cents 😭

it's kind of funny, very rewarding, and also a little frustrating that I'm not getting paid for it that I have essentially become a grade three math teacher lol. it's a 3/4 split and they're doing such different material and ig I've proven myself enough that for the past few weeks, the teacher has just been handing me the grade threes while she takes the grade fours and I just. teach them their math lesson???

#even when we made a list of all our possible coins that we could use! #corynn.txt

making posts about how beer tastes bad is a lot like that painting of a jester harassing a bunch of dogs while leaning over a wall, except the jester is below the dogs and trying so hard to reach them, and all the dogs are extremely beautiful and strong, and have a wonderful community built on love, and they never want for anything. they never want for anything.
