*KIDS ARE SMARTER THAN MANY GIVE THEM CREDIT...*
*An Elementary school
Teacher had twenty-six students in her class.
She presented each child in her classroom the
1st 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, keep in mind that these are
first-graders, 6-year-olds, because the last one
is a
classic!*
