Well, before I start I just want to recognize the fact that I have now reached over 100 posts. There were a few funny things mentioned today, for example, when we studied the word "flammable." I asked the class if they knew of some things that are flammable? Alexander raised his hand and told the class, "One time, my brother took a lighter and held it..."
I said, okay let's move on to the next person, knowing exactly where this story was going. The rest of the class did not, so children began asking Alexander what he was going to say because they wanted to know. Of course, Alexander then tells the class that his brother farted and it caught on fire. Therefore, farts are flammable.
I just want to know if anyone else has experienced this, because honestly where do you go when a student just tells the class that you can catch a fart on fire? The only thing I could think of is to tell the children that they should not play with fire and please don't try this at home.
Congratulations on joining the "Hundy Club".
ReplyDeleteI think I saw something about flammable flatulence on a British TV show called "Braniac Science Abuse". Talk about making science fun! And yes, they did conclude that farts are indeed flammable.
