The kindergarten class has been learning about trees and how living things depend on them. The past few weeks, they have spent time researching trees together and sharing what they've learned.
English II Tribute Training Challenge
Today, our English II students brought The Hunger Games to life as they wrapped up Part I of the novel with a Tribute Training Challenge! Students competed in physical, mental, and skill-based challenges -- just like the tributes in the book.
Survival Relay – Teams raced against the clock to build a shelter while scavenging for crucial survival items.
Trivia Trial – Tributes had to rely on their teammates' skills to earn the chance to answer Hunger Games trivia questions.
Skills Showcase – Competitors tested their accuracy in target practice, proving their ability to survive in the arena.
Survival Scenarios – Teams faced high-stakes survival situations and had to think fast to make the right call.
From teamwork to strategy, today’s challenge tested more than just survival skills; it deepened students’ understanding of the novel’s themes of resilience and resourcefulness.
