Lost Dog
It was a dark and stormy night. A boy was walking down the street in his wet, cold, yellow raincoat. He didn't see anyone for miles and miles. Just thten he saw a dog. He said, "Come here girl."But the dog didn't come.
He said, "Come here boy." The dog came. The dog had no collar. However, the dog had a note in his mouth it read, Please find my dog, Willey. -Maybeth [Donna Ralph's little girl.] The dog turned his head, the boy heard a rustle and saw someone across the street."Hello, who's there? said the boy.
My name's Donny." Donny saw the man digging in a trashcan and saw a cart. He was a homeless man.
"Donny, where are you?" said a dad.
"Willey!" said Maybeth.
"Oh, is this your dog?" said Donny.
"Yes," said Maybeth.
"Donny, there you are." said his dad.
"Sorry I ran off dad, I just needed to blow off a little steam, and I found a dog." said Donny.
"That's my dog." said Maybeth.
"Ok, here you go Maybeth, lets go home Donny." said his dad.
"Ok,Dad. said Donny. Bye Maybeth."
"Bye."

The Art and Aspirations of a Commenter
I believe in the power of a free exchange of ideas. I also recognize that words or access to
some information can be of harm to others, intentionally or unintentionally. As a
commenter, I therefore aspire to participate responsibly in the great online conversation
by:
* treating all bloggers with respect.
* seeking first to understand what is being said.
* celebrating another's accomplishments.
* using school appropriate language.
* rephrasing ideas in the blog that made me think, made me feel, or helped me learn
to let the blogger know his/her voice has been heard.
* commenting specifically and positively, without criticism. If I disagree, I will
comment appropriately, politely stating my perspective.
* being mindful always that I may be a role model to my audience, especially if they
are younger than I.
* making no reference to, link to, and/or giving access to any information that may
be inappropriate for a school setting.
* asking at least one question in my comment with the hopes of continuing a
conversation and deepening thinking.
* using a triple check before submitting any comment: Would I be happy to have my
mother read this comment? My grandmother? My favorite teacher?
great story i was happy that maybeth got her dog back!
