What Makes Someone Dumb/Smart?

By: Alanna Hamill, Thomas Ryan, and Jessica Lagunas






Intelligence comes in many different ways. Wether is it street smart, book smart, music smart, animal smart, art smart, etc. Everyone is smart at something, no one is "dumb".

Does being smart mean you have more friends? It really matters on what kind of smart you are. As if you were video game smart, you spend time learning how to play and what are the good games out instead of socializing as much as you could. Like being street smart is not the same as book smart, but they are both smarts and one may have more friends than the other, possibly book will have less because they need to study a lot more and don't have time to socialize.

Is it harder to be smart or dumb? "Smart" people work harder. Like you have to play basketball more to become smarter in the game other than sitting on the side lines and being "dumb". Being "smarter" prepares you to know what is around you and how to react. For example you could be pokémon smart and go to a convention for pokémon and you would know what is around you, but before that convention you had to learn the game and study creatures. Also like when someone is math smart. They can use their "smartness" to apply it to a certain area, for example paying for the groceries and how much money they need.

"Dumb" and "smart" people both have challenges because it is part of life. You may just have a simple challenge, but you may have a harder challenges too. For example, Charlie has many mental challenges, and some professional athletes have the challenges of eating right. Everyone has challenges and everyone can over come them if they try.
