The Hunger Games Chapter 4
This week we will be discussing what has taken place so far in the adventure of Katniss Everdeen and her fellow tribute, Peeta Mellark.
Currently, Katniss and Peeta have left their home in District 12, along with Haymitch and Effie Trinket. They have just arrived in the Capital they contiune to prepare to meet their competition in the games, as well as their stylists (a very important group of people.)

Below I have listed a group of discussion questions for you to answer in the comments section for this week. Since no one has come to our meeting today, I will plan to not continue reading until next week, but you must all be caught up to the end of chapter 4 and answer the questions before Monday night at midnight!
Also linked below is a better copy of the book, which includes the chapter breaks to make it easier for us to
know where everyone should be at.
Good Luck!
Discussion Questions
1.The story is written in the first-person, present tense. How does this affect the story?
2. Do you think strategy will be helpful or necessary in the Hunger Games, for what you know about how the games work so far? And if so, how?
3. How does Katniss feel about Peeta by the end of chapter 4? How do you think this will affect her in the games or any stragety she might be planning?

School Politics Essays
A Bad Past That Changed My Life
I was marked by the difference which was made in school between me and the popular football players. I remember that I felt shy because nobody gave me the chance to show who I really was. All the students looked at the famouse players, nobody looked at me. On a cloudy and bad day, I saw a new girl in school. She came at me. My heart was beating so fast, because I thought she going to bully me or something like that. She was a prety girl with a dark hair and her eye colour was like caramel. In her shy voice, she said, "Hi!I'm kate". I felt a vibration in her voice,and that was enough to understood that, that girl didn't want hurt me in any way.
With her help I discovered my talent..
Now I'm working at a police departament as a cosultant, and that charming girl, who helped me, is now my wife .Without her I wouldn't have discovered my talent. She supported me and she told that I make connections which other people don't see. I see men's true identity which fuels my work today.
So she opened a door in my life, I stuided criminology and now I forgot what had happend in school and I'm happy with my life.

8th Grade Assignment: The Politics of School
A popular theme in movies, literature and televsion, is the idea that students are divided up into different groups based on interests and personality. We all know the standard titles: Jocks, the Popular kids, the theatre dorks, Nerds and so on.
As we watched in our meeting today, below I have linked the pilot episdoe on the popular television "Glee." This show cleverly displays and tries to challenge the idea that these groups of students cannot step outside of their clicks without upsetting the balance of highschool life.
This week's writting assingment is to use these ideas to form a composition surrounding a villian (antagonist) and a hero (protagonist). The antagonist is someone who holds tight to the ideas that students must behave and interact according to their popularity level, while the antagonist refuses to let social barriers dictate what they do and how they treat others.
Good Luck!
