The Hunger Games: How do you rank?

Today is an early-release day, so we are going to use the first part of class to play a little online game based on The Hunger Games. To play, you must answer a series of 8 multiple choice questions that show how you would react in arena-like scenarios. After you've answered, your likelihood of winning will be calculated. I'll warn you, though, the game is hard. If your chances are anything less than 100%, you LOSE!

Here is the link to the game: http://www.scholastic.com/thehungergames/games/play.htm
Once you get to the webpage, you will be playing the second game that appears--the one called "Tribute Trials"


Afterwards we'll do a little bit of reflection:
  • What are the skills that you are required to have in order to make it out alive?
  • Why would these skills be useful to you if you were a tribute? Name three in particular that you feel are your greatest strengths.
  • Lastly, which skills does Katniss have? We know of a few by now, but we'll have to wait and see how she'll fare in different scenarios. Are there any skills that the online game refers to that Katniss doesn't have?
See you all in class for a little while, 
-Mr. Thomas
