Happy Read Across America!

Want a chance to leave your face hanging in the high school once you leave?  Here’s your chance!  All this week, the librarian will be taking READ pictures in the library.  The only requirement for the picture is you need to have a book.  You can be by yourself, with a friend, or with your entire posse!

Then, next week during Teen Tech Week (March 7-11), be sure to stop in the library.  There will be lots of fun Teen Tech Week activities to participate in and you will have a chance to vote on your favorite READ picture.  One lucky picture will win, be blown up into a poster, and hung up in the library.  The winner will be announced the following week and you can see the winning poster in the library soon thereafter.

READ pictures will ONLY be taken this week (February 28-March 4), so hurry in today!

Good luck!

And the winner is…

Teen Tech Week: Question of the day, Thursday

Today’s question was,  If money wasn’t an issue, what technology related product would you buy today?

Here were some of the answers:

Robot (written twice, with a comment “That’s not a good idea –irobot!)
electric can-opener
ipod
vizio
Morgan Freeman Voice Box
Mac laptop
light saber

I was surprised today  that more people didn’t say things like the new iPad, no one said any type of phone – including an iphone- everyone must be happy with their phones, and only one mention of a computer (mac laptop).  Maybe you were shy to write your answer?  If so, feel free to comment and leave your answer here!

Be sure to stop in the library tomorrow for the last Teen Tech Week Question of the day!  Also, tomorrow’s the last day to get in and vote for your favorite READ picture!

Teen Tech Week: Question of the Day, Monday

Happy first day of Teen Tech Week!

The week started off great today in the library!  Many came to check out and vote on the READ pictures, participate in the bookmark contest, do the internet scavenger hunt, check out some tech books on the tech display, play and switch around the words on the literary remix, and put in their two cents on the question of the day!

Today’s question of the day was, “How many texts do you send a day?”

Here were some of the answers:

0
300
250 (3 people)
1
463.2
(101/3)x6
pi
400 (3 people)
401
230
15

I hope none of those texts are being sent during school hours!  If you ask me, 400 is a crazy amount for one day!  As you’re all aware, I’m quite a bit older than y’all, and don’t text nearly as much as you.  I’d say I send about 3 a day on average (with many days with none).  This week is for you to celebrate your tech skills, so text on!

Be sure to stop in tomorrow to answer tomorrow’s question of the day!
