Session 8: Promethean Graffiti Wall & Media Slam


15 comments:

  1. On the Week 8 Graffiti Wall we were asked to write two words which summarized our thoughts about Prim's Death in Mockingjay.I wrote the words "Silver Bombs" because that's the way Prim died. Prim is a character that really grew throughout the series and I really respect that she sacrificed her life for others by going into the Capitol with the rebels. I think that the way Prim died was really sad yet ironic. The silver parachutes were supposed to symbolize hope and they kept Katniss alive in the Hunger Games yet they're what ended Prim's life.

    I really agree with the words "Breaking Katniss" because I think that President Snow knew that Prim would be in the crowd of Rebel medics and he killed her just to break Katniss.

    One question I have about this board is why did somebody wrote "disguise"

    1. I wrote "Disguise" Because when you think about it, while they're trying to infiltrate the capital all the members are in disguise so that they are not recognized and so they can smoothly go into President Snow's Mansion without much trouble.

  2. On this board I wrote "We Remember". I wrote this because we will always remember Primrose Everdeen as she was a very iconic character trough out the hunger games series. The way she died was also notable as well. She died trying to help the children that President Snow made his human barricade. I also wrote :"We Remember" because earlier that day we viewed propos that made in groups. The propo that my group made was a We Remember video commemorating Wiress, a tribute that died in the 75th Hunger Games. And to whoever wrote: "Fake Hope", explain why wrote it because I don't get what you're trying to say.

    1. Ivy,
      I really agree with your statement because Prim was truly an iconic character. I'm with you when you say that she was noble because she risked her life saving children who were strangers to her. I think that We Remember are two great words to sum up Prim. :)

  3. For this week, I wrote "short childhood" because Primrose had to grow up really fast. She didn't get to enjoy being a little kid. In about two years, Prim has gone from having nightmares and having her sister comfort her to being a nurse helping the injured in battle. That is a lot of maturing in just two years. I feel bad for her.

    1. I agree with you and I think that everyone feels bad for her. She had a whole life ahead of her but she got killed and couldn't accomplish her dreams anymore.

  4. I wrote Gone And Disguise. I wrote this because I thought of Katniss and how the have to be in disguise in order to move around the capital and get to President Snow's Mansion. I also wrote Gone because throughout the Hunger Games trilogy a lot of the characters leave or die so the idea of something disappearing is followed throughout the entire series. I am wondering, why did someone write "Fake Hope" And "Duck Tail" ? What does that mean to you? How did you come up with those?

    1. I think that Fake hope was written because Katniss hoped that Prim would survive the explosion, and Duck Tail represents the huge shirt that was given to Prim in the reaping in the 74th Hunger Games.

  5. I wrote Brave because I thought that Prim going to help the children who were wounded even though that she knew the risks of going to help them.

  6. On week 8 I wrote revenge. I wrote revenge because Prim dies and i'm pretty sure Katniss is going to take revenge because they killed her little sister, the one shes been trying to protect always.

  7. For this week I wrote"Human Healer". This leaned towards Prim. Throughout Mockingjay she has been helping her mother heal the people from the districts physically and mentally. It was the first thing that popped up in my mind when i saw the picture of Prim.

  8. I wrote she's dead because what else is Prim but dead? She died in the chapter we just read. I didn't really like Prim (she was kind of a Mary-Sue) but I think that Katniss will get into so much stress because of Prim's passing. I wonder what disguise means on this.

    1. I like that you wrote "Shes Dead" because it is short and simple yet it's meaningful

  9. I wrote "death" because in the middle was a picture of Prim and about an hour earlier we read the chapter were she died and it was the first thing I though of when I saw the picture.
