Congratulations to Parker’s two K-2 Odyssey of the Mind teams!  This year’s K-2 theme was “Stir the Pot”, and the teams have been working for months on their plays about inanimate characters magically coming alive, meeting people who influence it, and overcoming a huge problem.  The teams performed at the regional competition on Saturday, March 5 at Revere Middle School.  The judges said they had great stage presence and comedic timing.  Members of Team 1 (1^st and 2^nd graders) were Eli Ellery, Lillie Fleming, Michaela Grimes, Charlie Klingensmith, Jack Turner, and Max Turner; and Coach Christine Ellery.  Members of Team 2 (all Kindergarteners) are Ellie Avellaneda, Eden Bashir, Kyla Bibeau, Finn Briley, Aleksander Chen, Christopher Crear, and Leni Turner; and Co-coaches Sahel Chen and Bonnie Bibeau.  Special thanks to Parker teachers Mrs. Richardson and Ms. Jones for supporting OM.  Way to go, Parker OM teams!
