  • IQ of Small Children

    I htought you all might like to saher an e-mail I received.
    These are, apparently, genuine.

    A Year 2 primary school teacher had twenty-six children 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. Their insight may surprise you. While reading, keep in mind that these are Year Two, 6-7-year-olds, because the last one is a classic!

        Hilarious! But then, I don't believe for a minute that the last one was thought up by a 7 year old. 17 maybe.

            Was thinking the same, I would be shocked if my 6 year old came out with that one.

                        I echo RL, my eldest grandaughter is 5, and it wouldnt surprise me at all if at 7 years old she gave that answer.
                        Very funny, today is a stressful day in work and that has made me smile.

                          Totally true, children do not see the world in the same way as we do. They don't over think things and go with instinct and innocently say and do the funniest things.

                          One of the joys in teaching is that you meet this wonderful logic every day in different contexts, it is so difficult at times not to laugh out loud when they say some of the sweetest things in all ernest.

                          I could write a book about the things i have been told i really could.

                          Thanks for those. Miffyx

                            One i have remembered from this week.
                            I was sitting with a little bod writing with her, she was making a story all about a princess, a castle and a magic bean when she said to me. 'You could be in my story Mrs Miffy' me thinks oh the princess the queen, 'You could be the treasure' oh me thinks i am priceless! Why is that i ask 'Because you have got all that silver in your hair'
                            Bless her heart.
