🔥 Our 7th graders recently hosted an epic Hunger Games Event!
The games featured a variety of multidisciplinary activities that took place both before and during the competition.
Preparation for the Games:
• Students read chapter one of The Hunger Games and summaries of the rest.
• They watched the movie to dive deeper into the characters and plot.
• They became Gamemakers, crafting creative pieces about Capitol-bred animals.
The Reaping:
• Students were divided into groups representing Panem's 12 districts.
• They created maps, district seals, costumes, ID cards, and flags.
The Games:
• Trivia Challenge: Teams answered questions from the book.
• Marshmallow Catapult: Build and launch for distance points!
• Obstacle Course: A two-legged race with puzzles and mazes.
• Math Mix-up: Solve math puzzles inspired by the Hunger Games.
Staff dressed as Capitol workers and supervised the Games. After the challenges, students gathered to discover the winning tributes from each district! What a day of creativity, teamwork, and fun! 🙌
