shes in your class? or do you see her during lunch?
Best opener:
"Hey/Hi/Greeting!, Im <name> *handshake*
"
and then when she gives you her name you take it from there.
"Im going to sit with you today
and use you as my HW study buddy."
Then ask who everyone at the table is if you dont know them. Talk about what you have in common first to get the convo started and to make her feel like you arent strangers but close friends.
Ask her something about the class, and then lead the conversation to her other classes ask about how she likes the class, if the teachers are good, it its a fun class, etc. ask about HomeWork and if she says she has a lot or a little lead the convo to her family, and so on and on. example:
"Oh! Mrs. *****zilla, ho do you like the Hw in that class?"
"Oh I hate it, she gives us lik 20 probs everynight!"
"wow! that must not leave you anytime for family"
or
"Oh Miss NiceAngel, does she give ****loads of work?"
"Oh no, we dont ever get HW in her class"
"So you have all that free time with your family then?"
Chick: "No i have band practice and cheerleading and blah blah blah blah blah"
I know thats a really elementary example of convo starters but it should be fine for a newbie to learn and try out until he develops his own style.
