Hunger Games - Chapter 8


Chapter 8 (p. 103-113)
The chapter begins with Katniss secluding herself in her room, crying and fretting about what her actions will mean for her family. Finally, at dinner, when she tells the others of her actions, the stylists, Haymitch, Peeta and Effie are shocked. Peeta too felt he had been ignored by the Gamemakers. Katniss and Peeta find out their scores on television and everyone is shocked by Katniss’ score. Haymitch announces a change in strategy regarding Peeta and Katniss.

  1. What does Katniss believe will be the consequences of her actions at the private audition with the Gamemakers?

  2. What is the significance of the score given to each tribute? What is Peeta and Katniss’ score?

  3. How did Katniss meet Gale? How did the become a team?

  4. What role does Gale serve for Katniss? How does that compare/contrast with Peeta?

  5. What change in plans does Haymitch announce to Katniss?

    2- The significance of the score given to each tribute is because it gives you a better chance with sponsers. Peeta's score was an 8 and Katniss' score is an 11.

  3. 1 Katniss is afraid her family will get punished or she will get her toungue cut off.

    2 The score in most cases would determine the better players. Katniss scored 11 and Peeta scored 8.

    3 They were both out hunting on the same day.

    4 They are both contributors to her strengths and doubts.

    5 Peeta wants training sessions without Katniss.
