Finding Summer’s Happy Ending

Hay Seed and City Slicker know of another important August day to observe, especially when you return to the classroom.

It is called Be An Angel Day on August 22, but it can be celebrated ANY day. Honoring this day is quite simple—and you don’t need wings and a halo! Just do good things for others. That is all there is to it!

For example, you could offer to help a classmate struggling with a math problem. Or, you could invite a shy student to eat lunch with you. Or, if a classmate is going through a tough time, you could give your support by letting them know you will be there for them.

Being someone’s angel is not hard to do. It is all about being kind, understanding and available. There is a little angel hiding in this magazine, ready to spread some goodness.

For a chance to win a $25 Amazon gift card, do the following:

Find the angel, giving the page number.
Describe how you could celebrate the Be An Angel Day.
Give an example of someone who has been an angel to you.

The Latest Super Sleuth Contest

A one-size-fits-all athletic sock style was trendy in the 1970s and 1980s. These simple white socks reached mid-calf or higher, had two or three colored bands at the top and lacked a heel. Sports heroes of that time, like basketball stars Julius “Dr. J.” Irving and Wilt Chamberlain, wore these socks with shorts and popularized them with American youth. Today this sock style is still recognized for its comfort and is a common choice for school uniforms and sports teams. Hay Seed and City Slicker are not into socks but are curious to know more about this special style.

June Issue Super Sleuth

The June Super Sleuth was about staying safe during inclement summer weather. For a chance to win a $25 Amazon email gift card, kids were asked to find an image of Florida, the state with the largest number of storm days per year, hidden in the issue and provide the page number, say whether or not they’ve ever visited the state, and share how they will “play it safe” outdoors this summer.

The correct answers are:

Florida, Page 31
Yes, I have visited Florida.
“I will never be in or near water during a thunderstorm. I will seek shelter inside.

”Our winner is Titus. Congratulations, Titus!
