Los juegos del hambre y la antigua Roma

This course explores the four books of the Hunger Games series (including the prequel, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes) and how the history, culture, and mythology of the Roman Empire inspired the fictional culture of Panem. Students will explore book and movie references from the series that drew inspiration from Roman practices, people, and beliefs. A large number of characters from the Hunger Games (especially in the  prequel) are named after Roman figures from history and mythology; over half of the course compares and contrasts these Roman figures to their counterparts in the Hunger Games series.

This is not a comprehensive overview of the Hunger Games series or Roman history; its focus is on the overlap between the Hunger Games and Ancient Rome. Learners should have at least read the first book and/or watched the first movie. Keep in mind that there will be spoilers from the other books/movies. 

This is a self-paced course; there is no live component. Instead, students study the content contained in four lessons, using videos, descriptions, comparisons, and links to expand their learning beyond the basic course content. All extension activities (such as external videos and links) are optional and at the discretion of the parent. Depending on the abilities of the student, the core course material should take 50-70 minutes per lesson to complete; exploring the extension activities (such as links and videos) can provide 1-4 additional hours of content each lesson, depending on the interest level of the learner.
