On Oct. 8, second graders in Ms. Smith and Ms. Faulkner's class at Northwest Elementary School in Amityville held an interactive lesson on sentence editing.  

Students and teachers were dressed in scrubs and masks as they became “sentence surgeons.” They used their scissors and glue to fix up “sick” sentences or sentences with mistakes. Additionally, parents were invited to help students in the “operating” room.
