The class was geared towards grade 4, but there were too many grade 3'ers and not enough grade 4's so they took the smart third graders (and me, I'm not being humble here. My IQ tested at 80 in grade 2, in high school it tested a tad higher fortunately or I would have been put into the industrial stream) and put us into the fourth grade classroom. I was included so that Bruce Johnson wouldn't be the only third grade boy in the class. Bruce was my best friend and the only person shorter than me in my elementary classes.<br /><br />A few things that made the year memorable are:<br /> - This was the only class I had with my still good friend and storyboard artist, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2357562/" rel="nofollow">Al Berg</a>.<br />- We were thought to be too young to learn French so we third graders were sent to an empty classroom to commit mayhem during French period.<br />- The great fart incident in which Mrs. Seely caused most of the class to fall over row-by-row and we learned never to give her apples before lunch.<br /><br />It was a good year.TimBohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16128235274340905534noreply@blogger.com
