LOL! Module 11 (part B), The Forces in Creation

Module 13 did not have any experiments (but I did post videos for Module 13), so I told the kids to study the last several Modules, and we would have a QuizGame today.  And they could win chocolate!  Abigail was the winner by 2 points.
I was pleased with how much they remembered.  As I was asking questions, and sometimes pausing for discussion, I came to an experiment in Module 11 that we had skipped because of it's simplicity.
(Ohhhh yeah, I had this planned!)
Experiment 11.2 - The "Bent Space" Theory of Gravity.  Einstein's Theory of Relativity.
The kids didn't know what page I was on, but willingly got ready for this (unknown to them) VERY simple experiment.  I handed out goggles, and told them to wear coats and gloves.  And the girls especially might want to wear something over their hair.  (But I didn't say it was necessary!)
I explained I would just let them read and get together what materials they needed, and I would just video.  They didn't do the experiment quite right, but that wasn't the point today, lol!
I could hardly keep a straight face!!!
Bethany snapped a few pictures as I videoed them reading, following the steps, and waiting for something to happen...
Just see their faces as they realized this extremely simple experiment was totally over, and nothing had exploded!  😄
Rebekah looked up at me, slightly incredulous, "Why are we dressed like this?"
And then they all realized what was going on.  It was hilarious!!! 😂
Caleb was funny! "Stupid goggles.  Made me mess up my hair for nothing!"
Rebekah -- "I was just waiting... WHAT'S gonna happen?"
Abigail thought it was going to blow up!
Rebekah answered, "Yeah, she put explosives in the cantaloupe???"  ROFL!! 🤣
Just watch the video...


Still ROFL!
