The Wave Part 3 of 4
This weeks chapters are about Laurie feels the Wave is turning into something bad. Laurie is sitting in the publication office at the school. Chewing on her Bic pen. Getting ready to start the editorial meeting. They have a meeting and nobody that does the writing writes something for the paper, which is due soon. When the meeting is almost over, people suggest to write stuff on the Wave. Since Laurie is in the Wave , they try to get her to write the article. She doesn’t do it because she wants to save it.
Mean while there has been fights going on with kids that are in the Wave, and kids that don’t want to join the Wave. The people in the Wave are trying to get the people that aren’t in the Wave yet to join the group. At one point of the book, Mr. Ross has to go to the principals office, as the principal wants to have a word with Mr. Ross, about the Wave. Mr. Ross didn’t know if it was a good thing or a bad thing. It turned out to be a good thing. The principal is liking how the kids are all doing there home work, and working really hard in school.
Around the end of this section, Laurie and David break up. He says he can’t go out with her since she isn’t going to the big pep rally for the Wave, and that she is not liking how the Wave is turning out to be. After they break up. Laurie is at home, with her parents there. Her mom keeps bothering her, seeing how she is doing after the break up. Finally one time Laurie’s father comes in saying that he heard a rumor about a fight that went on at the school with these kids. One of them was in the Wave, the other boy that was getting beat up, was Jewish. Laurie’s father thought things were getting out of hand.
What I think will happen in the last set of chapters, is Laurie and David will make up and get back together. David will realize how bad the Wave is doing and join Laurie, to help stop the Wave. The Wave will get stronger and start beating up other people that aren’t in the Wave. Laurie will right a story about the Wave in the Grapevine ( the school newspaper). Lots more people will join the Wave. As well as leave it, realizing that it is turning bad, and they don’t want anything to do with it. Mr. Ross will get too caught up in it that he won’t want it to stop. The principal will either make Mr. Ross stop the Wave or fire him. Robert will get into a fight with other people over the Wave like some of the other people.
I think that Laurie’s mother and father will go to the school, as well with other parents. To stop the Wave. They might think that it is turning bad for there kids, and want it to stop. They get the principal involved to stop the Wave. I think that more than the school will be involved with the Wave. Some people from the town might join the Wave. I think there will be more people in the Wave than there is trying to stop the Wave. In the end I think that the Wave would come to a close. Mr.Ross will get fired. Robert will have friends, with people that were in the Wave. Lots of people would get into some serious trouble. That is what I think will happen!
