10 Websites That Will Make You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader

Translate Into: Bilingual & Comments

One of the most entertaining television game shows hosted by comedian Jeff Foxworthy is "Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader".

Contestants must answer a series of questions that are common knowledge to children attending first grade to fifth grade and with every correct answer money is won. Actual fifth grade students help the players and the players can use a Peek, Copy or Save option if a question stumps them, but the available cheats can only be used once during the game. If the players are able to answer ten regular questions and one additional bonus question they will win a $1 million dollar cash prize.

The funniest thing about the game is that the contestants are smart people, but amazingly for some reason simple grade school questions have defeated some of the most intelligent people on the planet. Maybe if the players had the opportunity to checkout the websites that are presented in this article, then they would have been prepared to win the game and take home the one million dollar grand prize.
