Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader? - Prove It By Taking a Real Fifth Grade Test

Many of you have heard of or seen the TV game show "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?" The game show may be fun to watch, and even fun to play, but you may be left wondering whether you could take on the average fifth grader in the classroom and win.

The State of Oklahoma was kind enough to put a fifth grade practice test online. This isn't just any test, but one that tests their mastery of the fifth grade curriculum in mathematics, reading, science,and social studies.

If you think that learning how to manage the Internet is tough, try taking this test. The test starts on page 20 of the document, and the answers are on page 57. No fair peeking.

If you can make it through the test, you may not be smarter than a fifth grader, but you are braver than most adults. Now take a bold step toward learning about the Internet. Go ahead and download a copy of Parenting and the Internet and learn about some part of the Internet that has scared you up to now.
