Proverbs

A first grade teacher collected well known proverbs. She had

twenty five students in her class and she presented each child with the first

half of a 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 the children

are first graders ...6 yrs old, because the last one is a classic!
