2 P ATRIOT TIMES P AGE 2 Around the School New Question: Who will be playing in the 2018 North American Scrabble Championship in Buffalo, New York this August? Congratulations to Ethan Harris for answering last week s question. You can find the Facebook profiles of Egyptian and Greek gods outside of Mr. McCaffrey s room. Ask Phoebe If you know the answer, then write it and your name on a piece of paper and put it in the Around the School box at the library circulation desk. One correct answer will be chosen. We may print that student s picture in the next issue, and the student will win a prize. Dear Phoebe, My brother is so mean to me. What can I do to make him stop? -Little Sis- Dear Little Sis, For starters, try to ignore him. Talk to your parents about him and you. You can also talk to your counselor about your brother. Maybe you could try to stay away from him for as long as you can. Maybe you can make him stop by telling him that he is hurting your feelings. You might forgive each other. It is normal for siblings to fight, but words are one things, and physical fighting is not the way to figure out your problems. Sincerely, Phoebe
