Hunger Games Literacy Project

I chose to create a lesson around The Hunger Games, using an Animoto as the introduction tool, a blog as the class-discussion enhancement tool (running our own Arena, and requiring the students to use persuasive arguments to win the bid for District aid each day), and a digital story showcasing persuasive argument for who the winning District of our class should be as the final project.  Since I do not currently have a classroom of my own, the feedback I was given was verbal from some of my peers (other teachers of high school English, or those with some training in Higher Ed.)  I created an example of each stage of the lesson as my "show-and tell."  Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated.

Again, any feedback, especially from those currently in a classroom, or those who have used similar tools, is very welcomed!
