First Grader's Insight on Proverbs
3/3/2007 7:49:52 AM

 A first grade teacher had twenty-five students in her class and she
presented each child in her class the first half of a well known proverb and
asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb. It's hard to
believe these were actually done by first graders.  Their  insight may
surprise you. While reading these keep in mind that these are first graders,
6-year-olds, because the last one is classic!

Hi Leonard,

This post reminds me of Art Linklettes show, Kids Say The Darndest Things.  I loved that show!  I even had the book at one time.

Thanks for shaing,
