If you can explain it to your grandma, you fully understand it. Well at least that's what my science teacher says, we had to write a letter to a grandparent explaining our experiments and stuff.

I'm bad at explaining, because I don't understand how someone else doesn't understand what I understand. So I don't know where to start or how to break it down.
