Character Traits:
- tough( controlling her crying/ hunting)
- "When they televise the replay of the reapings tonight, everyone will make note of my tears, and i'll be marked as an easy targe. A weakling. I will give no one that satisfaction." pg 23
- Mature (having to take over for her mother)
- "At eleven years old, with Prim just seven, I took over as head of the family. There was no choice." pg 25 (Steps up when her father dies and her mother is grieving)
- Brave (volunteering for the games)
- "I volunteer!" I gasp. "I volunteer as tribute!" pg. 2
- Rebel (hunts against the rules, challenges the capitol)
- "Without a victor, the whole thing would blow up in the Gamemakers' faces. They'd have failed the Capitol." pg 344 (There must be a victor, if they were both to die the joke would be on the Capitol) Katniss had the idea that they both eat the poisonous berries, to show that the capitol doesn't own them.
These definitely are really good traits of Katniss! They all describe her character in Hunger Games perfectly! Do you think that she was being brave volunteering for the games, or do you think that was just flat-out dumb? She was the provider for the family and leaving that position, do you think that was smart? Also, do you think the movie showed Katniss' characteristics well?
