On SWAP Day, we watched a Twilight Zone episode called "A Kind of Stopwatch."
  If you watch a Twilight Zone episode (or most any other show or movie), friends and family are going to ask you what it was about.  The episode is about 24 minutes, but they don't want you to talk about it for that long; they want a few sentences, or a short paragraph.  That's the main idea.

Over the next few weeks, we are going to be looking at main idea and how we identify the supporting details needed to share the main idea with other people.
