when i was young a friend of mine frome primary school told me that she never studied at home because she had a special trick, and so she told me that she only had to put her schoolbook under her pillow and when she woke up in the morning the knowledge had transferred to her brain. i was so stupid to believe her. one special day my parents were gone on holidays and my grandmother was looking after me, i tryed it and got the worst mark i ever had.
you know those air vents in the ceiling above stalls in public washrooms? Well I used to think that there were monsters inside them that would eat me. I'd hold it at school and I peed my pants very ver often until about grade 4..it ws really embarassing.
when i was like 4 or 5, i used to believe that one day at my preschool we would have nakie day. (where everyone went to school nakie!!!)
When i was little i thought that i could see microbes and in school when we would do experiments using microscopes i would not use a microscope because i thought that i didnt need them.
When I was in grade school.... such as 1st through 5th. I use to think that when I was home from school sick everyone else in my class was home from school sick too. It was as if school did not go on without me.
When I was younger I was VERY short for my age. So when i was in third grade I was playing outside with all my friends and everything was going great, When it was time to go inside my teacher relized I had not yet come in. Well, I was inside, with the pre-schoolers. I tried to tell them I was in third grade and that I was just short for my age (I had a lisp). They didn't believe me and had me convinced that I was supposed to be a pre-schooler because of my size. News went around the school and when they asked me what my name was I told them, they told me they were sorry and began to take me back to the classroom. I was very angry, I kicked, I screamed because I didn't want to go with "the big kids"
I used to think that we'd learn how to read by getting sat down in a weird room someday and having intelligence magically installed into our brains, thus having the power to read everything.
Until I was on fift grade I used to believe that world map was only showing have of the world as the globe is meant to be round and the map was flat.
There was once a wall stopping the kids from going into the school pond. On this wall there was some kind of commemorative plaque. Me and my friends were convinced that there was a dead body inside the wall and we tried to lift the top off the wall to see it.We were weird kids.
When i was in primary school we had to sing the National Anthem at Assembly.I was never actually taught the words so you had to follow everyone else's words and I thort I was singing the verse right until my mum corrected me one day. In the verse where it goes
"Our land abounds in nature's gifts" i used to sing "our land arounds in nature strips" i guess it describes the urban areas!!
In my first PE class at my primary school there was a boy that thought that to get changed for PE we had to take all our clothes off. Now all the pupils from my former class are traumatized!
When I was in 1st Grade I belived that there was an indian barrial ground under the school and they were gonna come up some day and kill everyone in the school.I had told all of my friends and they belived me and some how the word got to one of the teachers and they had to tell me all about how it wasnt true.
I remember when I was in grade school and the teacher would stamp our paper with a stamp that said dynamite I didn't know what dynamite was. I thought it was some kind of animal!
I have always been terrified of injections and in primary school I never took my sweater off because of the fear that the school nurse could come any time and give me one and I thought the sweater would protect my arms.
i used to believe that your age determined your grade in school....if you were 5, you were in the 5th grade.
Up until rather recently (I'm 20) I thought that only kids in elementary school in Oregon got to play the Oregon Trail computer game because it was about Oregon, and I'd always feel special playing it.
Then I heard stories from people who had also played the game in elementary schools, but in different states, even ones not along the Oregon Trail! It completely ruined it for me.
I also always wondered why it had places like Missouri in it, since Missouri isn't Oregon.
When I was four through six, I attended this school which had "the golden rules", only the paper these rules were written on was actually yellow, not gold, so I thought that they ought to be called the "yellow rules".
I used to think boarding schools
Were literally just schools taking place at night, like if a nursery school was called a night care centre, instead of a daycare centre.
I used to believe that only guys could get a Bachelors degree...and girls got Bachelorette degrees.I was so stuid *doh*
when i was in about 4th grade, i was certain that three of the guys from my class were living outside my window every nite. i was always really afraid that they were watching me, so i had to change in the closet, and put a sheet over my window
