When you take your notes, you can use graphic organizers to help you. I would make a T-Chart and mark first and second time. You can fill in the G.O. on the left for the first time you are read to and then the side of the T on the right, you can fill in when you are read to the second time. This will help you not take the same notes twice and really be able to pay attention.
