First-grade teacher, Ms. Brooks, was having trouble with one
of her students.
The teacher asked, "Henry, what's your problem?"
Henry answered, "I'm too smart for the 1st grade. My sister
is in the 3rd grade and I'm smarter than she is! I think I should be in
the 3rd grade too!"
Ms. Brooks had had enough. She took Henry to the principal's
office.
While Henry 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. If he failed to answer any of his questions he was to go back to the 1st grade and behave. She agreed.
Henry was brought in and the conditions were explained to him and he agreed to take the test.
Principal: "What is 3 x 3?"
Henry: "9."
Principal: "What is 6 x 6?"
Henry: "36."
And so it went with every question the principal thought a 3rd
grader should know.

The principal looks at Ms. Brooks and tells her, "I think Henry can go
to the 3rd grade."
Ms. Brooks says to the principal, "Let me ask him some
questions."
The principal and Henry both agreed.
Ms. Brooks asks, "What does a cow have four of that I have only
two of?"
Henry, after a moment: "Legs."
Ms. Brooks: "What is in your pants that you have but I do not
have?"
The principal wondered why would she ask such a question!
Henry replied: "Pockets."
Ms. Brooks: "What does a dog do that a man steps into?"
Henry: "Pants."
Ms. Brooks: What starts with a C, ends with a T, is hairy, oval,
delicious and contains thin, whitish liquid?"
Henry: "Coconut."
The principal sat forward with his mouth hanging open.
Ms. Brooks: "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, Henry replied, "Bubble gum."

The principal was trembling in sweat.
Ms. Brooks: "What word starts with an 'F' and ends in 'K' that
