I think Mr. Larose had us read Christmas Carol for a few reasons. First, when we go see A Christmas Carol for a field trip, we will have background knowledge and the play will have more meaning to us. Also, it is a different kind of reading than usual. We get to read our parts, and it is fun and a new way to learn. Finally, A Christmas Carol has a great message about how you can change who you are if you aren't a good person, and to give. In conclusion,we are reading A Christmas Carol so we have background knowledge, to learn a new way, and to get a good message.

I think Mr.LaRose made us read the Christmas Carol because of our feild trip to go see the play. Another example is because in the play scrooge was mean and nasty and hated Christmas and it all changed at the end and i think it means we can all change. Secondly because its almost close to the holidays and its a good story to read for it. Lastly because some people do not celibrate Christmas so its a way to learn about it. So therefore i think he made us read it because of the feild trip, The holidays, and because its a good way for people who do not celibrate Christmas.

I think we would read A Christmas Carol because it's almost Christmas. We would also read it because it teaches a good life lesson; never be mean and cruel to people because it will com back to haunt you. I think that is the reason why we read the story and went to the play.

I think that Mr. Larose had us read A Christmas Carol So that maybe we would have more fun then usual when we had to read. I also think that it was because when we went to the play that we could enjoy it more and not spend the whole time trying to understand it. I also think that we read it just to have fun.

I think Mr.Larose had us read A Christmas Carol because it's a classic. Another reason is it's getting closer to Christmas and it fits the season around now. My last reason is that it has great morals/lessons that are good to know and will help you in your futures.

I think Mr. Larose had us read A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens for more than one good reason. The first reason is the life lessons it teaches are very important to learn in life. The other reason is too have us practice language arts skills that are hard to learn. As A result Mr. Larose had us read A Christmas Carol so we could learn important life lessons along with hard to learn language arts skills.

I think Mr.Larose had us read a Christmas carol for many reasons. One of those reasons would be that Christmas is coming up. Another reason is he would want us to learn some life lessons like being greedy and self centered doesn't help anyone including yourself. The next reason we read the Christmas carol is because we went to see the play so we read it so we would understand it more. Over all i believe that Mr. Larose had us read the Christmas because he wanted us to learn some life lessons.

I think that Mr. Larose had us read a Christmas Carol for a few important reason. One being that it was something new to us, we got to read a script and put our self's into the characters and really understand it more plus it was a fun way of learning. Another reason is going to actually see the play which helped us get to she what the characters are like and see the story come to life. The last reason was for all the life lessons that were in the story, those are things that we should carry with us through out life. There for I think that Mr. Larose had us read a Christmas Carol for many good reason like those.

I think Mr.Larose had us read A Christmas Carol for many reasons. First, to let us know a little bit about what it was about before going to watch it. Also, to keep the story going so that it never fades away. Last, because it taught us a lot like that money doesn't always make you happy and that no matter how bad you have it there is always someone worse out there. That is why i think Mr.Larose made us read A Christmas Carol.

I think Mr. Larose had a read the Christmas carol for a few good reasons ! I think one was so that when we saw the play we had some knowing about what would happen. I think another reason he had us read it is to show what Christmas is realy about ( being close to Christmas time ). The last reason i think he had us read a Christmas Carol, is to show that anyone can change, and how being mean realy affects people.
