Mapping PanemYou will be using quotes from the Hunger Games trilogy to try and create a unique interpretation of what you believe the setting for Suzanne Collins’ series looks like. You will compare these quotes to physical and resource maps of the United States to assist you. It is important to understand the following two facts before you begin this project:There are no incorrect answers, you simply will need to be able to explain why you organized the map in the way that you did.You do NOT need to have read the entire trilogy before completing this project.
