Parents/Guardians, please assist your child with today’s homework.

Review of Hunger Games Part 1: 

Option 3:

Our part of District 12, nicknamed the Seam, is crawling with coal miners.  Men and women with hunched shoulders and swollen knuckles, lines on their sunken faces.

When I was younger, I would blurt out bad things about the people who rule our country, Panem, from a far-off city called the Capitol.

Taking the kids from our districts, forcing them to kill one another while we watch – this is the Capitol’s way of reminding us how we are at their mercy.  The message is clear. “Look how we take your children and sacrifice them and there’s nothing you can do.”

1.    Describe the men and women who live in the Seam.

2.    Who ruled Panem?

3.       Why do you think that Katniss sad negative things about the Capitol?

4. Why does the Capitol force kids to kill each other?
