The sequel is finally here! Catching Fire, the sequel to the extremely successful book and movie, the Hunger Games. If you have read the Hunger Games review that I made earlier, you will know I am very fond of the first movie. You will also know that I strongly suggest that reading the book before watching the movie. Like the other one, it has great actors and detail. But, there are several incredibly boring scenes in the movie. On a good note, the peacekeepers look a lot better, and I like the scene where Katniss sees the peacekeepers coming down the streets. I rate this film 4 1/2 stars. Once again, give Gio credit for this review.

The Art and Aspirations of a Commenter
I believe in the power of a free exchange of ideas. I also recognize that words or access to
some information can be of harm to others, intentionally or unintentionally. As a
commenter, I therefore aspire to participate responsibly in the great online conversation
by:
* treating all bloggers with respect.
* seeking first to understand what is being said.
* celebrating another's accomplishments.
* using school appropriate language.
* rephrasing ideas in the blog that made me think, made me feel, or helped me learn
to let the blogger know his/her voice has been heard.
* commenting specifically and positively, without criticism. If I disagree, I will
comment appropriately, politely stating my perspective.
* being mindful always that I may be a role model to my audience, especially if they
are younger than I.
* making no reference to, link to, and/or giving access to any information that may
be inappropriate for a school setting.
* asking at least one question in my comment with the hopes of continuing a
conversation and deepening thinking.
* using a triple check before submitting any comment: Would I be happy to have my
mother read this comment? My grandmother? My favorite teacher?
