CARTOON ANSWER:

WHEN IT CAME TO LEARNING SIGN LANGUAGE, THE STUDENT WAS —

DINDOOSHNAG = IN GOOD HANDS

Good morning everyone and happy Monday!  LAGOON was the only word that gave me pause this morning and would be my pick for the trickiest of the quartet.  With all of the clue words solved it was straight to the cartoon.  After reading the cartoon sentence, I wrote down SIGN and HAND leaving me with DOO.  I knew one of them was wrong as I needed a five letter word.  I started by re-jumbling SIGN and DOO and noticed GOOD immediately.  IN was obviously the two letter word and I added the S to HANDS for the finish.  It could have been a major headache if I had started by jumbling HAND and DOO but luck was on my side this morning.  I’m curious if anyone else came up with SIGN and HAND right from the start, and if so, how you managed to solve it.  Have a great day and I’ll see you tomorrow!  😀👍🏻
