Researchers have found that statistically, there is a direct positive relationship between students' shoe sizes and their results on spelling tests and spelling bees. (That is, students with larger shoe sizes tend to do better.)
Can you explain this correlation?
I think someone earlier touched on this, but I'll touch it some more.
Tests get harder as you get older. A spelling test when your in first grade has words like CAT and BOOT. In Eighth Grade you have to spell harder words, like PHLEGM and SCROTUM. So the idea that you do better on spelling tests, as you get older, is null and void. And just plain retarded.
It would be the same for spelling bees. An Eighth grade spelling bee would be much harder than a first grade contest, and in fact if they are made adequately difficult, the success rate of spelling words correctly at the Bee (and the grades on the test for that matter) should be about the same.
BONG!!!!!!!
Retarded
