Monday Homework: The Word Eater

We had a great first day! 

For tonight's homework students are to write 
2 paragraphs (3-5 sentences each) and tell what word they would have Fip eat and why. What do you think would happen? What would be the positives and negatives?


Today we began The Word Eater!
Fip is a magical worm. When Lerner Chase a young girl discovers that any word she feeds Fip causes that very thing to disappear she soon realizes that this power may be more than she ever anticipated. What if she were to have him eat the word potholes? Yes, those terrible bumps in the road would disappear but so would many jobs of the people who fix them. What if you wanted Fip to eat the word spiders and spiders were to disappear. Would the world soon be swarmed with fruit flies? Choose carefully!
