Will Star Wars: The Last Jedi Advance the Entire Star Wars Franchise?


by Rachael A.

On December 15, 2017, a new Star Wars movie will be released. To learn more about expectations for the upcoming film, I interviewed several sixth-grade students.
I interviewed Harrison Buchhalter and he said this, “ I think it's going to be really good. I think it might be better than The Force Awakens.”
The title of the movie is The Last Jedi. “I think Rey will be the last Jedi," Harrison said. He told me that knowing Star Wars, he thinks Luke will die in some sort of lightsaber battle or something; he doesn't think Luke will just die from old age.
In The Force Awakens, Luke's lightsaber had a calling to Rey. “ I think Luke and Rey are related,” Harrison said. This statement seems very right because Rey has the force and Luke's lightsaber was calling to her.
I also interviewed Jack Pelliciotti and he said, “ Maybe Leia and Solo at the parents [of Rey]” This would explain why Luke's lightsaber had a calling to Rey and why Rey has the force.
I also asked Jack who he thought the Last Jedi would be and he said, “ The last Jedi is supposed to be Luke, but he’s teaching Rey in the Jedi ways.”
In the trailer, it seems like Kylo and Rey may join forces, and his response was, “ I hope so. I feel like there might be some connection between Kylo and Rey.”
In The Force Awakens, many changes occurred, including Han Solo dying. With Solo dead, I asked Jack who he thought would be Chewbacca’s master, he said this, “ Rey, definitely Rey.” I also asked him if Kylo Ren moves to the good side, who he thought would be the new villain. He said, “Snoke.”
Other important events that happened in The Force Awakens, we learn that Darth Vadar is Kylo Ren's grandfather. We still don't know who Rey's parents are, something I hope is answered in the Last Jedi.
I think the new Star Wars movie will be a crowd favorite and live up to its name!

It was fun to perform all our songs all together.’’ Each grade performed two songs and the whole group sang one together.

What is it like to be a Long Term Substitute?

By: Jack B. This year Ms. Harris took over for a fourth-grade teacher and is a long-term sub for fourth grade.  In October, Ms. Sweet went out and Ms. Harris came in as a long-term substitute. I asked her about being a long-term sub and how she started teaching and other questions. She said, “It is weird starting in a new class because I feel weird when I start anything new.” I went on and asked her about how she started teaching and she said that both of her parents were teachers and she thought that it would be fun working with kids. She also said that she started at Village School and that she wanted to teach for the rest of her life. She also said she would like to work with kids for the rest of her life if she couldn’t teach anymore. She said that teaching is her favorite job in the world and it would be fantastic to teach for the rest of her career.

The Movie Wonder Was Made Well

By: Lexi Fisichelli Wonder is a movie about a boy who has never looked ordinary since the day he was born. His mom has homeschooled him for his entire life. When his parents tell him that he is going to start middle school at a real school, he freaks out. They had to leave some things out of the movie that were kind of important in the book. One important thing they left out was how Auggie got a hearing aid. I think that the book was good because you could really use your imagination, but they both did very well. At Village School in Marblehead MA, every fourth grader reads the book, Wonder . Then last month, the movie Wonder came out. Samantha Roman, a sixth grader at the village school, has read the book and seen the movie. “I like the movie I thought they did good with it,” said Roman. She said that she liked how the book had sections with a different character's perspective every time. She also said that personally, she likes to read the book first then ...
