Are You Smarter than a 5th grader? Earlier this month, John Marshall of WPXT came to Mrs. Lemieux's 5th grade class at Village School, to record a commercial to be broadcast during the TV program Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader? Marshall showed the class how to set up the equipment and then gave them a question and multiple choice answers to memorize. The class then repeated the question and answers on camera, gave a hint, and then said the real answer.Fifth grader Cameron Holmes said, "What I liked about the filming was it was fun to have a TV crew come in our classroom and also to know that we are going to be on local television." Blake Wallace added, "I liked the fact that we could be ourselves and goof around on camera. It was also fun to see how they worked the camera. We all had great enthusiasm and had a fun time watching our classmates' bloopers. In the end we were laughing our heads off!" To see the commercials, tune in to channel 14 at 5:20 and 5:45 p.m. every day. Photo credit Chris Crawford
