Task : Have to create a flow chart which shows the connections between the characters, events, and major ideas of Part One in reaction to Katniss the main character. I am not doing a flow chart on the whole book, it's just Part one I'm doing it on.
Content:
- minimum of five other characters
-minimum of three settings/places of action
-minimum of five important ideas or events
Method:
use traditional or unique flow chart design which incorporates visual elements to emphasize or highlight your content. Use Katniss as the anchor of your chart.
The teacher said that the main character Katniss can be in the Middle of the Chart. I have wrote her name in the middle of my paper and there is a square around her name. There is a arrow going to the right attached to that box which is attached to another one. That box is labeled FAMILY. And under family are:
FAMILY:
-Prim(Katniss young sister)
-Mother
-Father(deceased in mine explosion)
There is a arrow going down from the Box Katniss and it is labeled: FRIENDS
FRIENDS:
-Gale(best friend)
-Peeta
-Cinna
-Haymitch
-Katniss is in the middle and there is a arrow going up her name(north) and it is labeled: THE SEAM
THE SEAM:
-district 12(the seam is a nickname for district 12)
-wild forests(nearby district 13)
-poverty
-barely any food available
-coal dust
-similar faces(black hair, olive skin, grey eyes)
Writeacher, could you tell me if this is good so far, I'll still add more information, I'd just like feedback.
Sounds good so far.
Now for some events ... some of the main actions/events that occur in the story.
Are you supposed to add detail to the characters or places -- descriptions?
The square labeled SEAM, has a arrow going to the right of it and it is labeled: MERCHANT
MERCHANT:
-richer part of district 12
-Peeta's family resises here
-implies trades
-buys goods
I don't think I have to add details about the characters because my tacher showed all us students an example on the board and she just labeled the characters, no information about them.
OK, then you're on the right track with it all.
Congrats for following directions well!!
=)
Thanks
It looks like you've made a solid start on your flow chart! Here's some feedback and suggestions to help you continue:
1. Organization: Your current layout is clear and easy to follow. Katniss in the middle and branching out to different categories is a good approach.
2. Character Connections: You've listed some important characters connected to Katniss, such as her family and friends. Consider adding additional details to show the relationship dynamics. For example, you can use arrows or lines with labels to indicate the nature of their connection (e.g., "Peeta - Love interest" or "Haymitch - Mentor"). This will provide more context and depth to your chart.
3. Settings/Places of Action: You've included "The Seam" as one of the settings, but it would be helpful to add a brief description or specific details about this location. You can do the same for the other settings/places of action you plan to include, such as "District 12" or the "wild forests."
4. Ideas/Events: It's great that you'll be including important ideas or events related to Part One. To make your flow chart more informative, consider using small icons or symbols to represent those events or ideas. For example, you could use a lightning bolt for a significant event, or a thought bubble for an important idea. This will provide a visual cue to make your flow chart more engaging and accessible.
Remember, the key is to highlight connections between characters, events, and ideas in relation to Katniss, so make sure to adjust and expand your flow chart accordingly. Good luck with the rest of your work!
