Are you ready for Week 2 of A Week of Wordy Wisdom?
Today we have a quote by the beloved Winnie the Pooh! I just love his soft, kind-hearted nature!
Give your students the opportunity to think about what makes them different from each other and their family.
Children are also always up for crafts. I love these little Winnie the Pooh character boxes. You can download printable templates here or by clicking on the image if you would like to attempt them with your students.

The meaning for this proverb is that you can ‘t have something if it has been ‘eaten’ so think about what is it you want: Do you want the cake? or Do you want to eat it? and whatever the decision is, be happy with it.
