It’s A Gas, Baby!January 26th, 2010 @ 4:56 am
Rowan is now studying matter in science. Matter takes on one of three forms solid, liquid, or gas.
Solid, liquid – no problem. Rowan grasped the concept quickly although the concept of liquid being able to change shape per the container you pour it into did not seem to connect at all. Then we moved on to gas and I told her to take a deep breath and then explained to her that that the air, the oxygen, she breathed was a gas.
Her eyes were wide open, her jaw dropped and she exclaimed, “LIKE GASOLINE?!?!?!!” in a panicked tone.
It took me forever to back my way out of that one and the look on her face said it all, “this bitch just told me to suck in a lung full of GAS!!!”
