A first-grade teacher, Ms Brooks was having trouble with one of



her students.





The teacher asked, Harry what is your problem? Harry



answered, Im too smart for the first-grade. My sister is in the



third -grade and Im smarter than she is! I think I should be in



the third-grade too!





Ms Brooks had enough. She took Harry to the principals office.



While Harry waited in the outer office, the teacher explained to



the principal what the situation was.





The principal told Ms Brooks 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.





Harry was brought in and the conditions were explained to him



and he agreed to take the test.





Principal: What is 3 x 3?





Harry: 9.





Principal: What is 6 x 6?





Harry: 36.





And so it went with every question the principal thought a



third-grade should know.





The principal looks at Ms Brooks and tells her, I think Harry can



go to the third-grade.





Ms Brooks says to the principal, Let me ask him some



questions? The principal and Harry both agree.





Ms Brooks asks, What does a cow have four of that I have only



two of?





Harry, after a moment Legs.





Ms Brooks: What is in your pants that you have but I do not



have?





Harry: Pockets.





Ms Brooks: What does a dog do that a man steps into?





Harry: Pants





Ms Brooks: Whats starts with a C and ends with a T, is hairy,



oval, delicious and contains thin whitish liquid?





Harry: Coconut





Ms Brooks: What goes in hard and pink then comes out soft and



sticky?





The principals eyes open really wide and before he could stop the



answer, Harry was taking charge.





Harry: Bubblegum





Ms Brooks: What does a man do standing up, a woman do sitting



down and a dog do on three legs?





The principals eyes open really wide and before he could stop the



answer.





Harry: Shake hands





Ms Brooks: Now I will ask some Who am I sort of questions,



okay?





Harry: Yep.





Ms Brooks: You stick your poles inside me. You tie me down to



get me up. I get wet before you do.





Harry: Tent





Ms Brooks: A finger goes in me. You fiddle with me when youre



bored. The best man always has me first.





The Principal was looking restless and a bit tense.





Harry: Wedding Ring





Ms Brooks: I come in many sizes. When Im not well, I drip. When



you blow me, you feel good.





Harry: Nose





Ms Brooks: I have a stiff shaft. My tip penetrates. I come with a



quiver.





Harry: Arrow





Ms Brooks: What word starts with an F and ends in K that



means a lot of heat and excitement?





Harry: Firetruck





The principal breathed a sigh of relief and told the teacher, Put



Harry in the fifth-grade, I got the last ten questions wrong



myself.
