Celebrating Twosday-SD | CO School for the Deaf & Blind

Written Tuesday 2/22/22

What makes today special? It is known as “Twosday”. Try Googling “Twosday” and see what pops up! Look below for the reactions of some of our students as they see the confetti and the dancing “2’s” on the screen!

What is Twosday? February 22nd is the 22nd day of the 2nd month. The year is 2022 and today is Tuesday! (Two and Tue sound the same). Also when written numerically, 2/22/22 is a palindrome. You can read it forwards and backwards!

What did the students in the School for the Deaf do to celebrate Twosday? They found symmetry in shapes, separated fractions into halves, matched partial shapes together, found the number 2 in hidden pictures, solved system of equations where the answer was (2, 2), and more!
