The Thought Process

A teacher was working with her seventh grade class on
"Thinking Skills". She was giving some concrete examples of
deductive reasoning skills.

"I'm holding an object behind my back", she said, "And it's
round and red."

Little Mary in the front row stuck her hand up. "Is it a
cherry?" she inquired.

"No," said the teacher,"It's an apple, but I like the way
you think."

Next the teacher said, "I'm holding something behind my
back. It's long and yellow. Can anyone guess what it is?"

"A banana! A banana!" shouted little Freddy.

"No," said the teacher, "It's a pencil, but I like the way
you think."

A voice boomed from the back of the room. It was Dukie. "Hey
teach, how about I hide something and you guess." Not to be
outdone the teacher agreed.

Dukie swaggered up to the front of the room, dug his hand
into his pocket, and said, "I've got something in my pocket.
It's round and hard and it's got a head on it."

The teacher thought for a moment, her face reddened. "Dukie,
that's obscene, sit down."

"No it's not teach," he said as he brought his hand out of
his pocket. "It's a quarter, but I like the way you think."
