Who Moved My Cheese? is a great book for all teens. It's a story about coping with change, realizing when it's happening, and that it's not always a bad thing. I have put together an editable packet filled with discussion questions and activities to promote deep thinking while students go through this book. As you read with them, you can discuss some of these questions together, or have the students respond silently (some topics might be difficult for students to think about and discuss, so it's important that sharing their answers is not required!) This packet includes: - Character charts - Discussion questions - Venn Diagrams - Quotes - Drawing prompts - And more!
