Hunger Games Unit Plan

Hunger Games Novel Study Unit Plan

This unit plan is designed to get students exploring language, theme, plot, setting, character development, inquiry, inferences and a range of cognitive thinking skills as they read the novel, The Hunger Games. Students are provided opportunities to analyze three separate settings in the novel, identity and describe characters and analyze character relationships, use inquiry processes to determine how and why characters make decisions, identify and understand vocabulary, and use text references and quotes to infer meaning. The unit employs multiple delivery modalities and uses a constructivist approach to teaching and learning. Lesson plans are student-centered and are design to engage students in multiple activities.
