Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader?

While explaining to the class the different types of definitions there are - I thought I learned this in 5th grade. I guess the rest of the country didn't - the professor next wrote on the board, "theoretical." For reasons I can't explain, he asked the class, "Now what word do you see in 'theoretical?'" Seconds later, a girl a few rows back shouted out, "THEORY!!!" as if she were on a game show. Perhaps, Fox's, "Are you smarter than a 5th grader?" I'm not sure who would've been more eager to answer the question. The girl in my class, or the 5th grader.
