Are you smarter than a Kindergartner?

You know the show...Are you smarter than a 5th grader? For those of you who do not know, I am enrolled in SPC pursuing an Associate of Arts in Teaching. My plan is to be a Bilingual major with a minor in ESL. I am enrolled in two actual education classes this semester and am required to do three observations this semester. February 15, I observed in a Kindergarten/ESL classroom. All of the students are of Hispanic background. These students did not know any English until they started either Pre-K or Kindergarten. I was very impressed and inspired by what they are being taught. They knew answers to some questions that I did not know the answer to, so I thought it would be fun to test your Texas History! Here it goes...
