A first standard teacher was having trouble with one of her students.
The teacher asked,”Harry what is your problem?”
Harry answered, “I’m too smart for the first standard. My sister is in the third standard and I’m smarter than she is! I think I should be in the third standard too!”
The teacher had had enough. She took Harry to the principal’s office. While Harry waited in the outer office, the teacher explained to the principal what the situation was.
The principal told the teacher she would give the boy a test and if he failed to answer any of the five questions he was to go back to the first standard.
The teacher and harry agreed.
Harry was brought in and the conditions were explained to him and he agrees to take the test.
Teacher: “What is 3×3?”
Harry: 9
Teacher: “What is 12/3?”
Harry: 4
Then the teacher asks, “What does a cow have four of that I have only two of?”
Harry, after a moment, “Legs.”
Teacher: “What is in your pants that you have but I do not have?”
Harry replied, “Pockets.”
Teacher: What does a man do standing up, a woman do sitting down and a dog do on three legs?
Harry: Shake hands
The principal a bit tensed told the teacher, “Put Harry in the fifth standard, I missed the last three questions….”
