    I have not really had alot of connections with the book but I do have one.Cara knows that she made a mistake when she wrote about mr.Larson,and how lazy he was,she now knows she has to fix it.So,she wrote something nice about him and respecting him when she made it apropreit in the newspaper.And when I do something bad I know that I have to fix it.thats my connection,BYEEEE!!!!!

    I think that Cara and Joey will finish the Landry news and Mr.Larson will enjoy reading the Landry News but Dr.Barnes will not like it and he will fire Mr.Larson and all the kids are going to make a plan to get Mr.Larson rehired.

  11. By: Kevin on December 4, 2009 at 9:34 am      

    i think mr.Larson is going to get fired because the principal thinksthat mr.Larson maybe is not duing his job right!

  12. By: Taylor on December 4, 2009 at 9:35 am      

    I read chapters 10-11 and I thought they were very intresting. I can’t wait to read the next chapter and see what happens during the meeting. I wonder if Mr. Larson doesn’t get fired. Anyways the book is going good so far. I don’t think I have any conections with the book.” BYEE!!!”

    I’m glad to see that you are doing some great thinking about the book. Keep up the excellent work!

  27. By: Brendan on December 9, 2009 at 9:37 am      

    I think Mr. Barns will try and stop The Landry News. :0 :(

  28. By: Jared on December 9, 2009 at 9:38 am      

    I think that Dr.Barnes will have a different attitude towards Mr.Larson.I think so because of the meeting that Mr.Larson & Dr.Barnes.

  29. By: Joy on December 9, 2009 at 9:39 am      

    i predict that mr.larson will get a raise, because when mr.barnes reads the newspaper, he’ll like it alot, and assume that mr.larson tought her how to do it.

  30. By: Brendan on December 9, 2009 at 9:39 am      

    i think Cara will get angry if Mr.barns tries to shut down the landry news

  31. By: Brendan on December 9, 2009 at 9:40 am      

    i like the landry news :)

  32. By: Danielle on December 9, 2009 at 9:40 am

  33. By: Jared on December 9, 2009 at 9:40 am
