Magical Cheese Homework

Along with some work designing, building, and testing paper airplanes, in preparation for our Air Olympics next week, students were asked to bring in a headline of their choice for Monday.  This headline will be used in an activity where they need to give the main idea of the story in a sentence or two, and then make up two other possible main ideas that would match the headline.  This 'two lies and one truth' writing activity will rely on the headline they bring in, so they need to know what the article is about.

In addition, the students read most of the story "Who Moved My Cheese" at the end of the day today, and were told to figure out what their 'magical cheese' might be.  Watch either one of the video versions of the story below to see more, and ask your child what we are talking about when we refer to "magical cheese".
