Day 13 Hunger Games Ch 25-27 responses
As the Hunger Games come to their conclusion, a few things come to mind.
1.) Making a text to text connection, compare / contrast the response of the farm animals in Animal Farm, when the pigs walked out of the house wearing clothes and on two legs, to the choice Katniss and Peeta have to make at the end of Ch 24 when the Gamesmakers change the rules again.
2.) Make a text to text connection to our Social Studies book Chapter 11 for the choice Katniss and Peeta made at the end of Ch 24 to that of the social studies content.
3.) Muttations are the name of the creatures in the arena. Mutt is a name for a mongrel dog, and a mutation is a change. Using these clues, explain why muttations is an appropriate name for these creatures. What were they really?
4.) Was Katniss playing the game all along or did she really have / develop feelings for Peeta? What is your proof?
5.) Why were Katniss and Peeta in more trouble out of the arena than inside it after the games were over?
6.) What do you think the future holds for winners of the Hunger Games, especially given the disobedience they showed to the Capital. Refresh my memory, how did Katniss & Peeta force the hand of the Capital during the Hunger Games?
7.) Given that Katniss and Peeta will be making the rounds of all of Panam, what do you predict will happen? What new conflicts may they face?
8.) Overall, give your honest feedback on the Hunger Games. Did it live up to the "hype" that I gave it? What was your favorite part? Are you going to read book 2?
