Katniss Everdeen wakes up; It is the day of the reaping. She sees her little sister Prim asleep in bed with their mother across the room. Katniss puts on her clothes to go hunting. The area where she and her family live is called the Seam, and it’s part of District 12. They are at the edge of the district, which is enclosed by a high fence, and Katniss often crawls under the fence and goes into the woods where she hunts. Her father taught her these skills before his death in a mine explosion when she was young and she uses a bow her dad made. Though trespassing in the woods and poaching is illegal and Katniss even sells meat to the Peacekeepers who are supposed to enforce the law Most people in the districts don’t have enough food.

close to the edge summary and animation
“Close to the edge” is a short story told by Cecile Kruger. Close to the edge talks about this teenage girl Opal and her mum. As they walk north along this dusty track close to the edge as they have been travelling on foot for days she and her mum are very tired just like the rest of the group that her and her mum are walking with. As they walk along this narrow track the group comes to a stop for the purpose of someone stepping too close to the edge sending sand,dust and other things down the cliff as the rest of the group recovers from the scare Opal decides to adventure into the crevice in the side of the cliff there on the side off.
As she steps into the dim lighted cave on the side of the cliff. As she adventures further and further into this cave she finds something wet that wraps around her ankles that's what the author left us with to figure out what it is personally I think she steps into the water and a eel wraps around her leg.
WALT visualise and summarise the text in our own words
What do you think is more interesting the animation from google slides or the summary of the book.
