Proverbs

Proverbs are brief sayings which have in them some concentrated wisdom, usually learned by experience.

One first grade teacher wanted to teach her group of 6-year-olds some of our American proverbs.  She gave them the first part of a famous proverb and asked them to finish the statement. This is what she learned from her first graders.
