Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?

From Hasbro:

Now you can bring the hit TV quiz show home! Find out if you make the grade!

Play the game that pits the kids against the grownups for ultimate bragging rights. All you have to do to claim victory is answer 11 questions that the average 5th grader knows.

Sounds like child's play, but would you know...

Which U.S. President is featured on the face of a nickel?
What is the heaviest land animal?
What geologic era are we in right now?
A decagon has how many sides?

...or would you need to "cheat" off a classmate to answer correctly?

You may not have all the answers, but know you'll either walk away with the $1,000,000 prize or have to admit, "I am not smarter than a 5th grader."

Object: Be first to win a million dollars! If no player reaches the Million Dollar level, the

Six-Word Memoirs

In Six-Word Memoirs, teams use SMITH Magazine's famous storytelling form to guess the names of famous people, places, and pop culture icons. Teams use imagination and quick word-writing wit to create and identify six-word descriptions on more than 1000 different topics.

Can you describe George Washington, Lindsay Lohan or the City of San Francisco in exactly six words? You will need to if you want to win Six-Word Memoirs by University Games. The game invites teams of players to battle for excellence in defining and deciphering famous topics of people and places in exactly six words. For example, do you know who, “Julie’s mom, wife of Tricky Dicky” would be? If you guessed Pat Nixon, then you’ve got it.

Six-Word Memoirs is the creation of Larry Smith’s online storytelling community, SMITH Magazine. Smith first introduced the concept of describing a person in just six words on his web community and in one of the first Twitter feeds in 2006. He called the form the “Six-Word Memoir” and this simple way to define a life went on to become New York Times bestselling book, Not Quite What I Was Planning in 2008. Now the wildly popular concept jumps to life in a competitive team-based game.
