First grade teacher, Ms Brooks was having a problem with Harry.
She asked him, "Harry, what is your problem?" Harry said he was too smart for the first grade - he had a sister in third grade and he was smarter than she was so he should be in third grade, too. Ms. Brooks finally had enough so took him to the principal's office.
Harry waited in an outer room while Ms. Brooks told the principal of the problem.
The principal decided to give Harry a test and if he failed to answer even one question he would stay in first grade. They called Harry in and told him of their decision and Harry agreed to take the test.
Principal: "What is 3 x 3?" Harry: "Nine" Principal: "What is 6 x 6?" Harry: "36"
On and on it went at the 3rd grade level and Harry answered everything correctly. So the principal told Ms. Brooks Harry could go in 3rd grade.
But, Ms. Brooks wanted to ask some questions.
Ms. Brooks: "Harry, what does a cow have four of and I only have 2?" Harry replied: "Legs."
Brooks: What's in your pants that I don't have?" Harry: "Pockets."
Brooks: "What do dogs do that a man steps into?" Harry: "Pants."
Brooks: "What starts with a "C" and ends with a"T" is hairy, oval, delicious and contains a thin whitish liquid?" Harry: "Coconut."
Brooks: "What goes in hard and pink and comes out soft and sticky?" At this the Principal's eye opened wide and before he could stop the answer - Harry said, "Bubble gum."
Then Brooks said: "What does a man do standing up, women do sitting down and dogs do standing on three legs?" Harry: "Shake hands."
Brooks: "What word starts with"F"and ends with "K" that means a lot of heat and excitement?" Harry: "Firetruck."
At that the principal heaved a sigh of relief and told Ms. Brooks, "Put Harry in the 11th Grade, I got the last seven questions wrong
