I passed along wordle.net to one of the Lit Teachers here at the Distance Learning Center in AR. She had been looking for something like that and I wanted to pass along her appreciation of the info.

Loved, loved, loved the Hunger Games. I think it would make a really neat companion piece to Shirley Jackson's The Lottery. What do you guys think? And Jeff...don't you dare steal this from me!
