It’s December 11. 
Today is “International Mountain Day.”  How many international mountains can you name?

Trivial Fact of the Day:  The dial tone of most telephones is in the key of ‘F.’
Interesting Quote of the Day
:  “A man’s errors are the portals of discovery.”  --James Joyce (Irish Novelist and Poet)
Vocabulary Word of the Day:  surmise (verb) – apply this action word to a person who has decided something is true with very little evidence to confirm it.  Have you ever incorrectly surmised a rumor based on just one person’s opinion or perspective?


Writing Day!!! After we read the blog, go to 2nd 6 weeks Journals and click on Dogs Can Drive? Then, find your Memoir planning sheet and your memoir rough draft. Today we are going to edit and revise. If you can't find these items, then you will need to write your memoir and revise and edit on your own. Finally begin our final copy.
