Some of these made me chuckle. :)



Mary taught first grade. She had a class of twenty-five adorable 6yr olds. One day Mary gave each child the first half of a well known proverb and asked them to write in the remainder of the proverb. It's hard to believe these were actually done by first graders. While reading the results, keep in mind that these are only first graders, just 6 years olds.

No news is............................impossible.

Love all, trust....................... me.

An idle mind is........................the best way to relax.

Strike while the.......................bug is close.

A penny saved is...................... not much.

Don't change horses....................until they stop running.

Happy is the bride who......................gets all the presents.

Two's company, three's....................... the Musketeers.

Don't bite the hand that...................... looks dirty.

It's always darkest before......................Daylight Saving Time.

There are none so blind as .................... Stevie Wonder.

Where there's smoke there's ................... pollution.

The pen is mightier than the..................... pigs.

If at first you don't succeed...................... get new batteries.

When the blind lead the blind .................... get out of the way!

Really funny, but the cynic in me says that these were probably not from 6 year olds. I've taught 6 year olds...

You can't teach an old cat maths either, they fall asleep. Or I'd imagine so, as all my 18 year-old cat does is sleep.

And if you'd left it to someone a little bit older and ignorant of the phrases, three would be 'uncomfortable' or 'interesting', I guess!
