He did it again - the female class teacher was shocked.

 A female class teacher was having a little problem with a boy in her Grade 3 class.

One morning, the boy stood up and said,

“Madam, I should be in Grade 4. I’m smarter than my sister, and she’s in Grade 4 already.”

The teacher blinked and replied,

“Oh really?”

Then she took him straight to the principal’s office.

The principal listened carefully and said,

“Alright, let’s test him with some Grade 4 questions.”

Principal: What is 3 + 3?

Boy: 6.

Principal: 6 + 6?

Boy: 12.

He answered every single question correctly.

The principal smiled.

“Well, looks like this young man is ready for Grade 4!”

But the teacher wasn’t fully convinced.

She smiled mischievously and said,

“Sir, may I ask him a few questions too?”

The principal nodded.

Teacher: “Alright, young man… What does a cow have four of… that I only have two?”

(Everyone holds their breath…)

Boy: “Legs.”

(The principal chuckles softly.)

Teacher: “Hmm… Okay. What do you have in your school bag… that I don’t have?”

(Pause…)

Boy: “My homework!”

(The principal laughs out loud.)

Teacher: “Good one! Now tell me… What starts with a C… ends with a T… and gives us something to drink?”

(The principal raises an eyebrow.)

Boy: “Coconut.”

(Both adults nod in surprise.)

Teacher: “Alright then… What goes in hard… and comes out soft?”

(The room goes silent…)

Boy: “Chewing gum!”

(The principal exhales in relief.)

Teacher: “What do you tie down to make it stand up?”

(Pause…)

Boy: “A tent!”

(Principal laughs again.)

Teacher: “What do you use your fingers to put on… and every good student has one?”

(A moment of silence…)

Boy: “A ring!”

Teacher: “What comes in many sizes… and when you blow it, you feel better?”

(The principal leans forward…)

Boy: “A balloon!”

Teacher: “What has a sharp tip, a straight body, and helps you aim perfectly?”

(Suspense builds…)

Boy: “An arrow.”

Teacher: “What starts with F and ends with K… and you use it every day to eat?”

(Principal almost falls off his chair…)

Boy: “Fork!”

Teacher: “What do all people have… it’s longer for some than others… and it’s passed from parents to children?”

(The teacher smiles, waiting.)

Boy: “Surname!”

Teacher: “Final question… What part of a person has no bone… but is full of love?”

(The principal holds his breath…)

Boy: “The heart.”

The principal jumped up, laughing,

“Send this boy straight to the university! I got half those questions wrong!”
