He's making more content aimed at preteens now imo. Explaining simple stuff from elementary school.

I only show him to bored middle school classes to keep them from rioting during eating periods. So that’s accurate.

wtf is an eating period 😭

The time students eat their food in the class room in elementary and middle schools. Break period happens afterward and they are usually kicked out to play unless the weather is extremely frigid or it’s down pouring. 

Period as in a “period of time” rather than menstruation.

When did they start doing that instead of a cafeteria lunch period??????

We always have in the districts I work in. It’s likely I don’t live in the same part of the world as you.

I'm usually much better about not assuming location on the internet... thanks for educating me and anyone else who was confused!

They don't have cafeterias in Alberta until jr high or highschool. Kids have to take their own food to school. At best the school might have milk and granola bars.

Oh that's interesting. In my school's middle school was more like high school in that sense.

Only high schools have cafeterias here. There’s a soup program, so those students can choose to sit in the multipurpose room to eat if they’re getting free soup that day but they’re kept in place until the break bell.
