Animal Crossing is a game all about living life in a nice and quiet town, with the villagers as animals. There is 7 Animal Crossing games in America, and a few more in Japan, but today I will talk about the ones in America. The games are, Animal Crossing (Gamecube), Animal Crossing Wild World (DS), Animal Crossing City Folk (Wii), Animal Crossing New Leaf (3DS), Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer (3DS), Animal Crossing Amiibo Festival (Wii U) and Animal Crossing Pocket Camp (IOS and Android devices). In Animal Crossing (Gamecube) through New Leaf, you move into a town that you got to name. You have to pay a mortgage to live in a house that you choose, and there?s no deadline for the mortgage, in which you have to pay to Mr. Tom Nook. You can furnish your house to your likings, which you can buy at the store, Nook?s Cranny. In New Leaf, the shop is called Nookling Junction. You can also design your characters clothes, which you can get at the Able Sisters. In Wild World and up, you can get your hair done at Shampoodle. In Wild World, you can get Shampoodle by upgrading Nook?s shop. In City Folk, Shampoodle is in the city. In New Leaf, you can get Shampoodle by upgrading the Nooklings shop. In New Leaf, you are the mayor of the town. You can make town ordinances and public works projects. That?s all I can talk about the game for now.

NEWSPAPER VS. THE INTERNETBY KAIDEN NAIR

Today most adults and kids have a technological device. A phone, Kindle, iPad, iPod, laptop, computer, iPhone, Samsung, gaming systems, and much more! We're all just 8-11 year olds, but we've all used these things! Years ago, if you wanted to get the news, you would have to pay a few bucks and cents for a newspaper. Now, hardly anyone pays attention to actual newspapers. Everyone just reads the news on the

Internet. The newspaper staff had a feeling we should update ourselves. We work hard, and we spend a lot of time publishing the newspaper. But we know copies get lost and the Internet can be easier. We try to give you the stuff you want. So Mrs. Findley helped us add the school newspaper to the school website! Looks like this may be one of the first steps towards digital news at LCE.

DISNEY IN ACTION By Kaiden Nair

Disney animated movies from a long time ago are really fun to watch during movie night! But now remakes are being made in live action! Like one of the first Disney animated movies was 101 Dalmations. Then, it got turned into a live action movie! Like next year one famous Disney movie is going to be in live action, it's the Lion King! A couple other movies that are already in live action on Blu-Ray are Cinderella, Jungle Book, Alice in Wonderland, Pete?s Dragon, Maleficent, and Snow White. Next year, some other movies that come out are The Nutcracker, Christopher Robin (Winnie the Pooh), and The Lion King. Now there are plenty more for 2020 but I don?t want your hopes to high! Frozen 2 and Toy Story 4 are next year in animation!

HAS DISNEY INFINITY DISAPPEARED?By Kaiden Nair

Okay show of hands, who likes Disney? Wait! I can?t see your hands, so scream the answer in your head. Who likes video games? Who likes Disney Infinity? I DO! But every time I go grocery shopping, I go in the video game section, and NO DISNEY INFINITY! And it isn't just once? It's dozens of times! And someone's got to get to the bottom of this and that's me! With some help of course!

Okay, so we have Han Solo to translate Chewbacca for us, and Star Wars writing so I think we?re good to investigate!

In 2015, Disney Infinity 3.0 was sent out to the world. But so was Splatoon, Batman: Arkham Knight, and Rocket League. Yoda says ?That is a reason people disappeared.? They're all nodding. Well team 1 has helped me with case 1. Now team 2 is up!

I guess the rest of team 2 is fighting Thanos but this will do. WAIT! I?m getting some information from Iron Man. He says he's in Avengers Facilities looking up some answers. It says 2 million figures of Hulk we?re produced but only 1 million bought. That was for 2.0. It was also because some brands could not overlap. Like Minnie mouse can?t be in Inside Out story mode. Spiderman can?t be in Guardians of the Galaxy story mode.I know we want Baby Groot to meet Donald Duck, but we can?t always get what we want.

Team 3 will definitely get me more information than I need. Buzz Lightyear is telling me that they were going to make a 4.0! Phineas and Ferb you need to make that 4.0! What do you mean you can?t? Oh right you?ll get sued for using 11 movies. Cars 3, Captain America Civil War, Coco, Pirates of the Caribbean 5, Thor Ragnarok, and a bunch more. Wreck-it-Ralph just told me that there is a video game that came out in 2016 that blew the tires off Lightning Mcqueen. Can I get a drum roll, Sully? No, okay it?s Lego Dimensions! Who likes Legos? Who likes video games? Well I guess Lego Dimensions was for them! Well, I know you all love Disney Infinity if you are reading this but this may have been the end to Disney Infinity. And the end to this article. WAIT! IT IS?

If you still have unanswered questions about 4.0 these facts may help you out!

12 inch figures!

- Yes 12 inch figures.- On the top of their plates, there would be a button that lights up the figure on its own.

The figures are?- Elsa- Buzz Lightyear- Darth Vader- Hulk- Jack Skellington- Hulkbuster

Characters from our past

- Think of movies from 2016. These movies would have made it in 3.0.- Moana- Rogue One: a Star Wars story- Captain America: Civil War- And these movies in 2016 would have a story mode to keep you happy.- Finding Dory- Rogue One: a Star Wars story- Captain America: Civil War- Alice through the looking glass

Characters from our future

-Think of movies from 2017 and maybe 2018 if you know any. These movies would have made it in 4.0.

Thor Ragnarok, Cars 3, Spiderman: Homecoming, Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Pirates of the Caribbean:Dead Men Tell No Tales, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2, Coco, Avengers: Infinity War, The Incredibles 2, Ralph Breaks the Internet, Antman and the Wasp, Black Panther, Han Solo: a Star Wars Story.

Thanks for reading instead of playing!

The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild is the newest addition of The Legend of Zelda franchise! Its set in a post apocalyptic version of ?Hyrule? (which is the place The Legend of Zelda games are set in). It's one of the biggest games in the franchise. It?s an open world game where your always doing something whether it?s fighting Bokoblins or trying to figure out a puzzle. It?s always fun!

By Teegan Gambel

In my opinion, pandas are adorable. Pandas are permanent residents of China,. They are also really cute because of their weight. They can weigh between 75kg and 135kg. Pandas are omnivores but occasionally eat small animals and fish, bamboo counts 99 percent of their diet. Did you know that pandas are endangered because they are one of the rarest bears? Another reason panda are endangered is because pandas are wild and even though they are wild people still take them in as pets. When they do this prevents them to grow as a community. So doctors have decided to take in the pandas and take care of them until they are allowed to be released.

THE SCARE SQUADBy Teegan GambelJump rope for heart is back with a new team. The team is called THE SCARE SQUAD. Our school goal thisyear will be up to 6,000 dollars for people who have heart problems. An example is Camden who has holes in her heart, and thanks to the American Heart Association raising money, people like her can have fun. So please try to donate. The slightest donation will help.

My head spun in confusion. Darkness surrounded my eyes as a silent voice whispered in my head. Or in my ear. Fionna, Fionna wake up.The voice sounded familiar. Dude it's...cake.That's it. ??Cake,?? I said as I sprung out of bed. My eyes wide and full of tiredness. Ever since I was little, I was a easy waker. That's what my mom calls it. ??Dude guess what??? Cake said, ??A new arcade opened." Our hometown Bloom Burry must be the last place with arcades. Cake and I play a lot of old school video games. Our favorite game is the first Mario Bros. ??It's called Colorado Arcadia and...?? But before she could finish, I was already upstairs with the smell of pancakes drifting in my room.

I knew it was dad's famous recipe black hole pancakes. That recipe was where Cake got her nickname. Her real name is Charlotte but everyone calls her Cake. We had to skip breakfast and immediately leave. At the arcade, not many people were there. Well not many kids.

??Dude were so getting in trouble,?? said Cake. The Mario Bros game broke down, and I was determined to fix it. ??Don't worry,?? but I spoke to soon. All I saw was a flash of light and darkness.

??Whu...what happened??" as I looked down and saw I had green all over. As I tried to figure out what was going on, I heard a scream. A familiar scream.

To be continued.
