Education

While watching Annie Duke on the game show Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader, there was a first-grade-level question about the word for the instrument used by doctors to listen to your heart.

Gllen was adamant that no first grader would know the word 'stethoscope'. I tried to argue with him, but he told me, "First graders don't know three syllable words. They know only one and its 'banana'."
