After the Show. The Show Begins.<\/h4>\n

Aspiring scientist. Aspiring artist.
\n<\/em>After the Friday Night High School Dance.<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Unused Dry Ice. Leftover.<\/em>
\n Take the plunge and ask , “Can I take this home?”<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Already Schooled.<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The special effect tech has already talked of lasers.<\/em>
\n And blind spots in his eye.<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

After a short beat, he says, “Sure.”<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the dark of midnight, I carry home the styrofoam-lined cardboard box.<\/em>
\n In the morning, I make beakers of mad-scientist fog.<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Motivated. Enthusiastic. Learning.<\/em><\/p>\n

When I Was Young, We Played Around with Knives<\/span>.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

by aforgrave, April 3rd, 2013.<\/p>\n

LISTEN to John Mann sing, “When I Played Around with Knives”<\/p>\n

In the not too distant future (now past), I would go on to do a physics degree, and while employed at the Ontario Science Centre, freeze things super cold solid with liquid nitrogen.<\/p>\n

We need (not just careful, purposeful<\/del>) exploratory PLAY in our learning.<\/p>\n
