My name is Ms. Lampinen, but everyone calls me Ms. Lamp. I teach frosh English, frosh Digital Literacy, and junior IB English at Biotech. I love reading and have made a conscious effort to make time for pleasure reading over the past couple of years. I'm so excited to discuss The Hunger Games, and I really can't wait for the movie! The trailer was amazing!
Also, I tend to go overboard with exclamation marks when posting online. I'm aware of the situation and have determined that there's not much I can do about it!
Ms. Lamp, I also go overboard with exclamation points online (and in text messages)! :-D
Hi, I'm Erika, and I'm a freshman at Biotech. I enjoy reading (if the book is any good) and enjoy criticizing things whenever possible. So, even though I don't like The Hunger Games, I'll probably join in on the discussion anyway.
Erika,You should definitely join in the discussion- it'll make it much more interesting!
I'm Kiera. I am insane, and I love reading, and I loved the hunger games. I read it for the first time for a book club back in middle school so this is going to be fun.
I'm a sophomore but I don't like that name, I am trying to come up with a better name.
Hey everyone! I'm Connor and I am a senior at Biotech. I love reading (of course) and physics. My favorite genre is dystopian fiction, but I also enjoy fantasies, plays, and poetry. If I could, I would teach high school physics and English as a future career, but I'll probably have to stick with physics :)
Kiera, do you dislike the word sophomore because it's too sophomoric? (I should have warned you that I love bad jokes!)
Connor, you can have your students read novels relating to physics and show them the humanity of science. You can definitely blend both interests. :)
Hello~ I'm Annie and a sophomore at High Tech :DI need to read and write more and continue my procrastination on math and science hw (psh, those subjects, haha).
I love fantasy books and am currently attempting to get somewhere with Kat Lin's (classmate) fiance, aka my genderless 1/2000 formed child... Sorry, we're a crazy bunch at hths... :P
Oh, and Hunger Games were awesome. Kept me less bored all during my trip to China.
Hi! i'm Athul and I am a High Tech Freshman. I love reading mystery stories, but have a sweet tooth for fantasy ( Harry Potter, Percy Jackson... you know the drill). i also enjoy writing, but stink at writing thrillers , so I mainly stink to sappy romances ( though in a majority of them , people die at the end- VERY painful deaths). I know , i'm weird. My literary inspirations are Luna Lovegood and William Darcy.
<3 Mr. Darcy <3Have you read Paper Towns by John Green? It's a mystery AND a romance!
Hi, I'm Maura, and I'm a Biotech sophomore. I like reading all sorts of things (ranging from T. S. Eliot to WoW novels...) and I really like writing! Right now I'm attempting to get through Brave New World, and I wish I had more time to read it. I loved the Hunger Games and can't wait for the movie.Can't.
Wait.
MAURA!!! Hey. Remember book club 8th grade?
I do! That was so much fun, I miss Mrs. Harry and everyone. Did you know Danielle Griggs goes to Biotech, too? :D
Hi Guys,I'm Vanya and do I need to say it? I LOVE to read. I tend to like mysteries and dystopian novels, but I'm not really picky. I'll read almost any genre.
HI!! wow this is really late (probably the first thing I can say about myself is I'm a chronic procrastinator) I go to High Tech. Reading is my absolute favorite thing to do, but I am picky. I actually wasn't sure I was going to liek the Hunger Games, because dystopian isn't normally my thing but I loved it! Now I'm trying to be more outgoing with my genre selections :o)
My name is Ms. Gross and I teach English at High Tech. I teach World Lit to the freshman and one section of English IV. I am a voracious reader!
