Lilly Is Silly! We didn’t wait around for Michael to come back to class. We had a newspaper to finish. Andrea typed her stories into the computer. Mrs. Lilly used a laptop computer to look up photos we could use. She found a picture of Elvis Presley and made it look like he was standing next to Ms. LaGrange. Then she found a picture of Officer Spence and drew bars in front of his face to make it look like he was in jail. She cut out a picture of Mrs. Yonkers smiling and put it in front of a picture of a house that was burning down. Mrs. Lilly showed us how to put the photos into our classroom computer, and Andrea wrote captions under them: Ms. LaGrange had an Elvis sighting while sipping soup. Officer Spence behind bars. When she’s not teaching, Mrs. Yonkers enjoys setting fires. The front page of The Ella Mentry Sentry looked great. “I say this paper is done,” said Mrs. Lilly. “Let’s print it!” Andrea hit the PRINT button, and the printer started printing. Because that’s what printers do.
