Notes:

Great work today. We really worked hard on taking notes. We have a lot of confident and intelligent note takers in 6S. We've also started reading James Howe's The Misfits. Although we on read 1 and 1/2 chapters we've already had some deep conversations.

Joke:

Two women, who are dog owners, are arguing which dog is smarter.
First woman: My dog is so smart. Every morning he waits for the paperboy to come around and then he takes a newspaper and brings it to me.
Second woman: I know.
First one: How?
Second one: My dog told me.
