5.0 out of 5 stars: Excellent Resource - from Amazon August 5, 2012 (via Amazon.com) By J. Schenk (Amazon Verified Purchase) For educators who are seeking a thorough analysis of The Hunger Games as well as exercises in vocabulary, grammar, setting, influences, symbols and characters, this is the book to purchase. Not only has the author broken the book down into chapters with plot questions, but she also adds essay questions, character quotes and a complete section with the answers. I would highly recommend it. Joyce Schenk

5.0 out of 5 stars: Worth the Money - August 19, 2012 (via Amazon.com) By Stefanie Keene (Amazon Verified Purchase) This is the best teachers' guide I've ever purchased and worth writing my first review. It has focused standard alignment and entails real classroom instruction with no fluff. There are assessments for vocabulary, comprehension, and character development along with grammar lessons. It also reviews character motivation, point of view, flashbacks, etc. The only thing I have added so far is a Focus on the Author worksheet I developed after watching the author's interview on YouTube, and vocabulary PowerPoints to teach the vocabulary suggested. I dive in to teaching this unit tomorrow and have had a great time planning with this resource thus far!

(via TeachersPayTeachers.com) maryjowilliams It's pretty hard to put into words how powerful this resource was to the students during the reading of The Hunger Games. The information provided is amazing...I felt as though we covered almost every standard by using this resource. At times, I felt that it was taking way too long to do all the activities and projects (I know...I could pick and choose...and I did), but we enjoyed everything. I even added a couple of cool things from other sellers that complemented pages from this resource. I don't know how you pulled this all together, but thank you so much!! By the way, I created notebooks for all the students in 3-hole paper pocket folders. That worked our very nicely to keep everything together and organized. What is great is that there is SO much for teacher to pick and choose from. Outstanding!

(via TeachersPayTeachers.com) gabnation I used most of this with my 8th graders, and it worked out really well. It was hard to pick which activities I wanted to do with them, so I didn't! I let them pick which ones they wanted to do. I'm glad I came across this! I know a lot of hard work went into this! Thank you!

(via TeachersPayTeachers.com) jcampbell7 I knew this would be a great resource, but I was not expecting it to be at this magnitude! Wonderful resource, very thorough, and well worth what I paid! Includes lots of directions, activities, quizzes, and assessments. Thanks!
