Celebrate The Hunger Games Movie DVD/BluRay Release With Freebies and a Giveaway

HAPPY HUNGER GAMES!

*THANK YOU ALL WHO ENTERED MY GIVEAWAY* 
It is now closed and the VICTOR is... Pamela M.!
Congratulations! And thank you all for following & promoting!
Since Rafflecopter made it so easy to enter, I might have to do this more often. :)

Tonight at midnight "The Hunger Games" movie will be released on Blu-Ray and DVD. What I am most excited about is the extra features. Well, I am excited for the movie, of course. But the special features are sure to give teachers additional insight and a glimpse into the world of Panem. My friends in the fandom were able to take a sneak peek before everyone else, so you can read reviews on The Hunger Games Fireside Chat, Welcome to District 12, Victor’s Village, The Hob, HG Movie Site, Mockingjay.net, and Down with the Capitol.

The Hunger Games Novel Vs. Movie
I firmly believe in waiting to show the movie until after students have read the book and taken a final exam (if you plan to give them one). There are always differences between the movie and novel, so it will alleviate any confusion when they take the test. Also, it prevents students from using the movie in place of reading the novel.

To celebrate the release of the movie, I will be giving away a copy of The Hunger Games Book vs. Movie pack and a copy of The Hunger Games on DVD. Using my Hunger Games Book vs. Movie pack will give you plenty of engaging lessons to use with the movie. In addition, I will update it to include handouts for the extra features after I view them. To enter the giveaway, scroll down and fill out the online form from RaffleCopter.

I thought I would enlist the help of my fellow teacher-friends to offer you links to loads of Hunger Games freebies! We know how much teachers love freebies (because we love them ourselves!).
