subject: New proverbs

From: Dragon lite 

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 a classic!
