Son in third grade has a test this Friday in physics, on material that I studied in high school. He needs to know the difference between potential and kinetic energy, what kinds of media sound will propagate through, and how to change the pitch and volume of a sound wave. Good things.
I hope he's fluent in JavaScript and Klingon by age 12. And, I introduced him to weird Al on desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DN9qYF9DZPdw
Physics, in third grade? Did they change the order of the science curriculum? I read that they were considering starting with Physics, then move to Chemistry and the other sciences because knowing the principles of Physics makes learning the others easier, rather than waiting until later.
With the knowledge of potential vs kinetic energy, sound propagation, etc, I'll ask first- when does he start working for you?
My mechanic told me, "I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder."
