THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
5th & 6th Grade: What seven-letter word can follow both LAW and JAW to complete
familiar 10-letter words?


7th & 8th Grade: Think of familiar three-word phrase with of in the middle that means
what an untruthful person tells. Interchange the initial letters of the first and last
words, keeping everything else the same, and you’ll get a new, made-up phrase
meaning a bakery dessert shortage.
What phrases are these?
