Katniss Everdeen On her luck of the draw in the reaping balls.
Charac-ter Bio:
atniss E v e r -deen is
g r o w i n g up in a im-p o v e r i s h family af-ter her fa-ther died in the depths of the coal mines. Now her family is relying on her bow and arrow
to satisfy their hunger. She is now known as a super star with many citizens in the capital as Katniss and her star struck lover became victors when the 74th hun-ger games curtailed to an end. But when doing so she upset the capital to an ex-tent they will never forget until the day she dies. We are now here with Katniss to find out more on her complex issues.
Interview:Question: Rumor has it that President
Snow came to victors village to person-ally talk to you. Tell us more about your surprise visit from President Snow?
Answer: Yes, before I went on my vic-tor’s tour President Snow and I had a very serious discussion about my fu-ture. He came into my home while I was going to town. He had a retched scent clinging to his breath of blood, proba-bly some fancy capital trick. He was en-raged at me for an act I conducted in the arena, the very act that let Peeta and I exit the arena safe and alive. He said to me, “I have a problem, Miss. Everdeen. That started the moment you pulled out those poisonous berries in the arena” in that supernatural capital accident. He said that the act of us trying to kill ourselves started an uprising. if Sen-eca Crane (head gamekeeper) did not let us out alive then their would not have
been a victor for the 74th games lead-ing to an unhappy crowd. Lucky for us he let us both out of the arena for that reason, unfortunately that got him ex-ecuted for his decision.
Question: When you found out that you yourself were going into the arena for Quarter Quell, what were your first thoughts? Did you think it was fair?
Answer: When I found out I would be back in the arena I was only thinking of my self And i was mad. I felt like my bat-
tle had ended, like I had finally found out how president Snow was go-ing to kill me. I actually went over to Haymich’s house to have a drink.
Peeta on the other hand was already planning. Peeta pulled me back togeth-er, and from then on we trained like ca-reers. Peeta is a better person than I am he wont kill anything unless he is sure he needs to, he helps anyone, and he can move the crowd.
Question: What was Haymich’s strate-gies and last word before the games be-gan?
Answer: Haymich said A couple things to me to give me motivation like, “here is some good advise, STAY ALIVE. His last words were Before i went into the are-na: remember who the enemy is Katniss. Thats what I realized before I shot the force field, the real enemy is the capital. Those words helped me a lot, and mabey is one one the reasons im still here to-day.
Question: What were your hopes and dreams before and after you went into the games?
Answer: Before the games my family was living off my bow and arrow, but I had freedom no one chasing me down. It was fun, everyday after school I would go hunting with Gale. I wanted nothing more than what I had, but every year we ran the risk by getting grain in ex-change for more names in the reaping balls. But now all I want is to never have to deal with the games again.

No killing, no slaughtering, just peace.
Question: Many people see you and your mocking jay as the symbol and reason to fight back and retaliate against the capital. This is the biggest rebellion in history and your leading it on. How do you feel about this?
Answer: I am afraid, and I feel guilty be-cause I have misled thousands of people into their death and in fact I have already de-stroyed a hole district. I can no longer be in district 12, my home, my hole life and it is all my fault. I guess it’s the ending of one dis-trict and the birth of another.
Question: Now that the games are over who can you trust?
Answer: I can only trust those I know close-ly, it is weird in one sense only a couple of days ago I was deciding when the best time to kill Finick was and know he is maybe even a friend.
Question: And Finally, The interviews with Mr. Flickermen were canceled could you tell us a little bit about them?
Answer: Well, all just Say Cinna’s costume help prove a point. Through my costume he defied the capital himself while showing me his support. In the middle of the interview my dress lit on fire and through the smoke and remains of my old dress I had turned into a mocking jay! The dress and pin is kind of like my symbol in the game, it represents the hole rebellion idea and the protests against the capital. Like every other time peeta blew me out of the water,with his emotional speech. Personally I think he went to far but the capital crowd believed every piece of it. Cae-sar Flickerman said it must be so saddening to have your wedding cancelled. Peeta said oh we did get married, but just privately. Mr. Flickerman than said, oh that’s nice. Pee-ta cut him off saying No, its not good that we got married especially with the baby on the way! I have to say, I was just as surprised as the audience. Thats probable why all of panem didnt get to see the interviews.

The Sound of By Simon And Garfunkels
6. Beetween the lines
Hello darkness, my old friendI’ve come to talk with you againBecause a vision softly creepingLeft its seeds while I was sleepingAnd the vision that was planted in my brainStill remainsWithin the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked aloneNarrow streets of cobblestone‘Neath the halo of a street lampI turned my collar to the cold and dampWhen my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon lightThat split the nightAnd touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I sawTen thousand people, maybe morePeople talking without speakingPeople hearing without listeningPeople writing songs that voices never shareAnd no one daredDisturb the sound of silence
“Fools”, said I, “You do not knowSilence like a cancer growsHear my words that I might teach youTake my arms that I might reach you”But my words, like silent raindrops fellAnd echoedIn the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayedTo the neon god they madeAnd the sign flashed out its warning In the words that it was formingAnd the sign said, “The words of the prophets are written on the subway wallsAnd tenement halls”And whispered in the sounds of silence

Silence

Through the different melodies, in the song the sound of silence by Simon and Garfunkel, they were able to portray a gloomy, dark, forlorn
feeling. In other words Simon and Garfunkel where able to convey the emotions of depres-
sion and helplessness. This is asserted in the first words of the song, “Hello Darkness my old friend” that speaks to someone falling into dark
times or depression. Additionally, “In restless dreams I walked alone “ is also imparting the
mood and feeling of this song.
In this song they used the phrase, “the sound of silence” this quote is a very good example of poetic device because they used this oxymoronic phrase, as a way to communicate the loneliness
of someone. This statement adds to this song because it makes you think, what is the sound of silence? “Silence like cancer grows” this part en-
hances this song because it describes the sound of silence and how it overwhelms people. In this
quote it is showing how silence is like when cancer spreads, undetectable and silent. “Hello
darkness, my old friend”, this quote from the song shows the emotions of someone in great
despair, or starting to feel depressed
I selected this song because it’s tone matched my book, Catching Fire. This songs tone matched my book, Catching Fire. The Sound Of Silence
connects with my book because it speaks about being alone. For Example, in the song it states
”In restless dreams I walked alone, narrow streets of cobblestone”. This phrase from the
song is like how Katniss felt as she was walk-ing down district 12 after the capital obliter-
ated the whole district. As Katniss walked down the “narrow streets of cobble stone” she
said, ‘I killed you, and you, and you. Because I did, my arrow breaking the force field, that’s
what brought on this fire storm of retribution”. This quote asserts to the sadness of this song.
Again, “I walk alone through Narrow streets of cobblestone” connects to when Katniss walks
down the road toward what was once district 12’s town square. Passing rotting dead bodies of
those who tried to flee from the deadly capital attacks.
Hello Darkness! my old friend

PoemI am from the poor and penniless,
From the shaky mine carts making its treacherous descent,Declining into the musty damp shaft
I am from the distant trickling of tears, Internally rolling down faces carved of stone
I am from my bow,Hidden in the hollow of a great Dutch elm,
Protected by my father’s spirit I am from his wisdom, gathering berries to roots from the misty meadows
I am from Prim, From her washed out, frail skin
I am from my father’s house, crafted by his hands of precision, From the smoldering coals still billowing smoke,
Boards bucking, crashing to the ground as if they were walking my plank I am from endless nights of tormenting memories,
Hoping dawn will soon come I am from the glaring vulture eyes, staring me down
From the fury of the night drowning me into President Snow’s scheme
I am from the wolves,From rays of light glinting off their shiny grey coats as they scamper into the foliage
I am from their arched snouts reaching for the bright glistening moon,From their iridescent yellow eyes glowing as if they were my own
Dawn comes as night fell, awaking the woodlandsThe wolves leaving only the slightest imprint in the black, moist soil
I am from hunting all prey,From the dashing streaks of white,
Anything to fill my satchel I am from the aroma of cooking my game
From trading at the Hob, Wafting smells of white bread and goat cheese
I am from the buzz of the electric fence when I stay too late,Holding me back from my family’s empty stomachs
I am from being the capital’s play doll celebrity, To their personal assassin
I am from the Hunger Games,The capitals child,Killer of children
I am from the Mocking Jay,The hope of the rebels
I am from the determination of Bonnie and Twill From the chance for a new beginning
I am from, now, district 13,

Should ItStay?
OR Should it Go?
ompelling, surreal, deranged; you may call the controversial society in the Hunger Games trilogy inhumane. You may also call it a dystopian civili-zation. Nonetheless, it is still the New York Times best selling series, The Hunger Games. I strongly
advocate Suzann Collins book Catching Fire to be included in the grade eight curriculums because of its dramatic and riveting plotline. As well, this enthralling novel utilizes every word by using sophisticated language, drawing read-ers into the realm of the Hunger Games. This captivating novel engulfs readers in their thoughts about the hunger games society, making it the ideal book to be integrated in the grade eight curriculum.
I believe Catching Fire should be incorporated into the grade 8 curriculums because of its unforeseeable plotline that engages the reader. Additionally, Hunger game proponent, Calvin stated in his book review, “What I liked best was that even though the way she writes is unpredictable, the plot conveys the message in a clear way.” By “she,” Calvin was speaking to the Hunger Games series author, Suzann Collins. Most importantly, I believe that catching fire is an ideal book to be added to the curriculums because through its unpredictable plot line it exhorts the readers to delve deeper into the book and decipher the underlying themes. To enforce my point, this is like the moment when Katniss had to decide whether she was going to defend herself from a deadly threat or defy the capital, her true enemy. Person-ally, this part made me think of many dystopian parts in our civilization such as modern wars, bizarrely between the same human race. In line with the Albertan curriculum, this novel allows readers to construe their own ideas and concepts as they interpret the many intricate problems the characters face. The curriculum it says, “Student should de-velop their own opinions,” As I read Catching Fire, it consis-tently made me think about what my opinion was or what I would have done in that situation. I believe that the Hunger Games trilogy was effective in connecting the concepts of the book with a large variety of age groups allowing many of them to relate to the book. All together I believe this book, Catching Fire was very successful at drawing the reader in through its intriguing plotline and allowing readers to conjure up their own concepts and opinions on this controversial society.
I believe that Catching Fire should be incorporated into the Albertan curriculum because through multiple literary devices Suzann Collins was able to portray a whole new world. Undoubtedly the most unique part of catching fire was the unpredictable solutions for every impediment the characters faced. An example from the book is, “My bow drops as his meaning registers. Yes, I know who the enemy is. And it’s not Enobaria. I finally see Beetee’s knife with clear eyes. I rise, turning to the force field, fully revealing myself but no longer caring. My bow tilts up at the waver-ing square, the flaw, the ... what did he call it that day? The chink in the armor…” This is referring to when Katniss broke the force field to flee from the arena. In this example, Kat-niss rather than killing a rival tribute was able to identify
her real enemy, the Capital. This quote from the book is a very good example of how Suzann Collins reels her read-ers into the Hunger Games realm. For me this specific part of her literature drew me into the book because of its creative and unpredictable resolution. Not only did Suzann Col-lins hook me through her solutions but also with frequent pieces of information insinuating different characters traits, yet they were still well integrated into the story. For example, “If it were up to me, I would try to forget the Hunger Games entirely. Never speak of them. Pretend they were nothing but a bad dream.” This is speaking to how Kat-niss felt before she departed for the victory tour. Not only does this quote tell you how she felt but it also implies her standpoint on the society she’s living in. There were many quotes like this one that significantly helped me comprehend all the characters. In all I believe that through the char-acter development and the unpredictable solution Suzann Collins was able to connect the reader to the dominion of Panem.
I believe Catching Fire should be incorporated into the grade 8 curriculum because of its rich descriptive figura-tive language that creates vivid imagery connecting with the reader. For example, during the interviews before the Games, which require a battle to the death, Peeta advised all of Panem that Katniss is pregnant. During this point in the book Suzann Collins was able to fully capture the mood in the following quote, “As the bomb explodes, it sends accusations of injustice and barbarism and cruelty fly-ing out in every direction. Even the most Capitol-loving, Games-hungry, bloodthirsty person out there can’t ignore, at least for a moment, how horrific the whole thing is.” This part is a very good example of rich descriptive language. More than that, I think that the sophisticated language was able to accurately show the reactions of all the characters. Another example of descriptive language from the book Catching Fire is, “A shadow of recognition flick-ers across Caesar’s face, and I can tell he knows that the mockingjay isn’t just my token. That it’s come to symbolize so much more. That what will be seen as a flashy costume change in the Capitol is resonating in an entirely different way throughout the districts.” These examples are just some of the many rich descriptive passages that draw Hunger Games readers into Suzann Collins literature.
In all, I strongly promote Suzann Collins book Catching Fire to be included in the grade eight curriculum because of its Powerful descriptive language, unpredictable plot, and the universe it creates. The use of powerful language, phrases like “As the bomb explodes…”, drew me in to the empire of Panem. Throughout the whole book, Catching Fire Suzann Collins was able to resolve situations in an unfore-seeable yet plausible way. Through a combination of many different literary devices Suzann Collins was able to draw reader into the dominion of Panem. Catching Fire is a well-written book worthy of being included in the grade eight language art curriculum.
