- Learned about the chemistry of fire and how it spreads
- Understood the importance of proper ventilation in firefighting
- Learned about the different types of fire extinguishers and their uses
- Understood the physics of water pressure and how it is used in firefighting
- Learned about the dangers of smoke inhalation and how to protect oneself
Continued development in this area could include studying the science behind fire behavior and how it can be predicted and controlled. The child could also learn about the chemistry of different materials and how they react to fire, as well as the science behind fire investigation and arson detection.
