It’s November 16. 
Today is the “International Day for Tolerance.” Who are you tolerant of, but just barely?

 
Trivial Fact of the Day: You can make 75 million toothpicks from one cord of wood.
Interesting Quote of the Day:  “Perhaps our eyes need to be washed by our tears once in a while, so that we can see life with a clearer view again.”  --Alex Tan (American Author)
Vocabulary Word of the Day:  tremulous (adjective) –  use this word to describe someone or an animal that is fearful or showing fright.  What makes you feel the most tremulous?

Happy Friday!! SSR - 20 minutes. Since we won't be here on Monday, our page check will be the next Monday. That gives y'all 2 weeks of reading. Here is the challenge: 250 pages. I know it sounds like a lot but I know you guys can rise up to the challenge. After SSR, Channel ONE. Ever heard of the world's largest dog? Read Poetry with a Bite.
