(See if you get the same answers... unless your imagination runs wild…)
A first-grade teacher was having trouble with one of her students.
Teacher: “What is your problem?”
Boy: “I'm too smart for the first-grade. My sister is in the third-grade and
I'm smarter than she is. I think I should be in the third-grade
The teacher took the boy to the principal's office. While the boy waited in
the outer office
The principal told her that he would give the boy a test and if he failed to answer
any of his questions he was to go back to the first-grade and behave. She agreed.
The boy was brought in and the conditions were explained to him and he agreed
to take the test.
Principal: “What is 3 x 3?”
Boy: “9.”
Principal: “What is 6 x 6?”
Boy: “36”
And so it went with every question the principal thought a third-grade should know.
"I think the boy can go to the third-grade"
of her own questions to ask. The principal and the boy agreed.
Teacher: “What is it that a cow has four and I have only two?”
Boy: (after a moment) “Legs.”
Teacher: “What is in your pants that you have but I do not have?”
Boy: “Pockets.”
Teacher: “What starts with a C and ends with a T
Boy: “Coconut.”
Teacher: “What goes in hard and pink then comes out soft and sticky?”
The principal's eyes opened really wide and before he could stop the answer
Boy: “Bubblegum.”
Teacher: “What does a man do standing up
The principal's eyes opened really wide and before he could stop the answer...
Boy: “Shake hands.”
Teacher: “Now I will ask some ‘Who am I’ sort of questions
Boy: “Yep.”
Teacher: “You stick your poles inside me. You tie me down to get me up. I get wet before you do.”
Boy: “Tent.”
Teacher: “A finger goes in me. You fiddle with me when you're bored. The best man always has me first.”
The Principal was looking restless
Boy: “Wedding Ring.”
Teacher: “I come in many sizes. When I'm not well
Boy: “Nose.”
Teacher: “I am a stiff shaft. My tip penetrates. I come with a quiver.”
Boy: “Arrow.”
Teacher: “What word starts with an 'F' and ends in 'K' that means lot of heat and excitement?”
Boy: “Firetruck.”
Teacher: “What word starts with an 'F' and ends in 'K' and if you don't get it you have to use your hand?”
Boy: “Fork.”
Teacher : “What is it that all men have one. It is longer for some men than for others.
The pope doesn't use his. Normally a man gives it to his wife after they're married?”
Boy: “SURNAME.”
The principal breathed a sigh of relief and said to the teacher
"Send this Boy to the University. I got the last ten questions wrong myself!"
