Student's awesome assignment 9:Who moved my cheese?

http://www.whomovedmycheese.com/ by Spencer Johnson



Once in a large maze, there were two mice, and their names were Sniff and Scurry. There were also two little people, and their names were Ham and Hew.

Inside the maze, there was a place with a lot of cheese.

Everyday, both the mice and the people went there to eat the cheese and rest. They had never faced any problem to get the cheese before. There was always plenty of it.

But one morning, when they arrived, there was no cheese where it was supposed to be. Immediately Sniff and Scurry ran to look for cheese in another station, the C station. Then, Hem and Haw didn't know what to do. Suddenly, Haw decided to go to the new C station, because he knew that there could be a chance of finding cheese there, but his partner didn't want to go with him.

Haw went alone and day after day he was loking for the cheese. Meanwhile he learned many things, such as:

1º - To go in a new direction will set you free;

2° - The fear in your mind is worse than what it is really going to be;

3º - When something runs out, a better change comes;

4º - Things you do if you aren't afraid.

In many parts of de maze, Haw wrote sentences like those.

While Sniff and Scurry had already found the other station, which was full of cheese, Haw also found it a few days later. He didn't forget about his friend Hew, and they arrived together at the new C station.

All of them had a lot of cheese to eat, but the great lesson was to Haw, because he was the one who first accepted the challenge.

  1. a long time ago I hear from a friend: "everythings changes", so: if the things are well, take care, can be changed. If the things are bad, don't worry, can be changed.
