A first grade teacher had twenty-five students in her class and she presented each child 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 children are 6-year-olds!
