IF YOU HAVE SEEN THESE BEFORE....IT'S TIME FOR A REVIEW...
CHILDREN'S PROVERBS

A first grade teacher collected well-known proverbs.  She gave each child in her class
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 these are first
graders.....6 year-olds, because the last one is classic!

Children should be seen and not

If at first you don't succeed
get new batteries.
