Football Teams by Teddy Taylor

In 2nd grade the boys are challenged to develop a boat using a square piece of aluminum foil. Their first test is to place penny passengers on the boat. The top 2 teams that succeed at this are then entered into the Great Lego Family Challenge. Using their boat they have to get 22 Lego people and 26 pieces of luggage to successfully survive on the water. Last year and up until the last 2nd grade class no one was able to complete the challenge until Mrs. Weitzman's and Ms. Orlando's class came up to the lab. It was between the  team of Rocco Coschigano, Robert Jacobson and the team of Will Forshner, David Beeson. Rocco and Robert went first and used a strategy that no other team had used. Their boat ended up sinking but Will and David paid close attention and used their strategy. As a result of their wonderful teamwork they were the first 2nd grade team to complete the challenge at the lower school.

Once upon a time, there was a boy named Nick. He lived on a plant and used magic. He had a mom that worked at a clothing store. Nick’s dad worked at a blacksmith store. They were very kind. Nick went to magic school where he was taught how to use non-violent water magic. Nick was very good in class, but at home he dawdled all the time.
