Hunger Games Assessment Blog Posts

Identity Charts:

 We chose to do the Identity Charts for our project because throughout the book they introduce many new characters that are very important to the book. We decided to do Cinna, Effie Trinket and Peeta Mellark. These characters are significant to the book because they had a vital part to Games. Peeta Mellark, helped Katniss create the 'star-crossed lover' effect on the Capitol, it helped her and Peeta get sponsors while they were in the arena. Without Cinna Katniss wouldn't have had so much of an effect on the Capitol, and the people who lived there, because Cinna made Katniss memorable. Effie Trinket helped Katniss, she told Katniss about what she should and shouldn't do, and if she wasn't here Katniss may have done something really bad. The book describes the personalities of the characters and we thought that the best way to show the personality traits would be through an Identity Chart. 

Here are the Identity Charts:

Cinna Above, Effie Trinket Bellow :)


Key Symbols:

We decided to include Key Symbols in our project because through out the book there are many repeating symbols. Some of they were significant to the story, but others were not. We chose to do the Mocking Jay Pin, which was considered a sign of rebellion and District 12. We also chose to do the Dandelion, which for Katniss represented Hope. Another symbol we chose to do was the Cannon. The Cannon blew when a tribute had died in the Games. The Tracker-Jackers, another key symbol, signified the fact that the Capitol will do anything to have control. We also chose to do Rue's flowers. These flowers were the ones that Katniss chose to do, it represented rebellion and Rue. Last but not least we chose to draw a banquet, food from the Capitol, it represents the Comfort and Wealth of the Capitol, and the difference between District Twelve and the Capitol.

Tickets:

We decided to do the tickets because we thought that it would be fun to and so we decided that we should make a ticket.
