BFF


As we get to know people, we are able to decide if they could be our friend. You have learned a lot about Katniss over the past few weeks. Tell whether or not you could become best friends with her. Describe, using specific reasons from the text, why or why not.

  1. I would be good friends with katniss because we have the same hobby of hunting animals with a bow and arrows. katniss says and I quote "I like killing animals better than killing people". In that state of mind she. Does not really want to be called a killer but she promised Rue she will try to win the hunger games.But with thins statement me and katniss would be great friends just like her and Rue I would be there for her watching her back.

  2. I think I could become friends with katniss because we both have some things in common. First of all we both hunt. Second we both take care of our little sisters sometimes. And we both have hunting partners

  3. I would like to be best friends would Katniss. I would like to be best friends with KTniss because we do have some things in common and we would be able to understand each other in some ways. For example we both have little sisters that we care about and truly love. Also because we both have to take care of our little sisters but Katniss does have to do harder work but we both do feel li ke we are responsible to take care

  4. I would like to be Katniss' best friend because she is caring, and she is a risky generous person, it's like we are the same person because we have a lot in common. She takes care of hunting food, risking her life but she does it anyway.

  5. I do not think that Katniss and I would be good friends because,yes I like to hunt but I think I would enjoy the hunger games except for the starving.Now don't get me wrong i don't like the idea of killing but it would be fun to test your strengths against other people so you can see your combat and survival skills.Now with manipulation of families I think I would agree but unlike her I would fight and start a rebellion against the Capitol even if I get killed I would still stand up for others.

    1. I agree with you it would be awesome to test are strength and see how long we can survive. Also it is wrong to kill people just for your entertainment so I think they should make it where you don't actually die you just lose. Or they can make it virtually where your in like an online game but when you die in the game you just get kicked out of the game.

    2. Your right it would be cool in a video game but I would like it more if it were person vs. person because it's you and your abilities where a video game would be like super fast reflexes and stuff like that.

  6. Yes, I would become best friends with Katniss because she seems to be a very nice person over all. Also, Katniss reminds me of my cousins in Massachusetts because they like to hunt a lot just like her. Katniss would be a very good friend because she was disappointed at the fact she had to kill humans. That means I would never be scared of her turning on me and trying to hurt me. She also seems to care a lot about her friends. She doesn't want peeta to die and she helps him to stay alive. She also helped Gale and his family stay alive.

    1. Yes I agree with you, I wouldn't want her to turn on me and I don't think she would.she does care a lot about her friends and family she would help you and I if we are ever in trouble I would think. She is a very nice person and I would love to be her friend. She is sweet and kind.

    2. I agree with both of you like katelyn said she cares about her friends and family and she dose not like to kill anyone.

    3. Yes I agree with your with you because if I had to ever go in the hunger games I would like to learn things from Katniss because she knows how to hunt.

  7. I would like to be Katniss's friend because she is protective and does not miss shots with her bow and arrow, so if I stick with Katniss I would probably survive longer. Also, she is a good hunter and is cautions about things around her like land mines. Plus she is very skilled with a bow, and I like archery so I think me and Katniss would be a good team in the Hunger Games.

  10. Me & Katniss don't have nothing In common But we still can be friends

  11. I would be friends with her because if I got into trouble with somebody she would defend me and help. She cares about her family and friends, I'm clumsy sometimes so if I got hurt she would try to bring me back to health like what she did for Peeta in the arena. Katniss could also help me with aiming for things because I have terrible aim. Im not very good in bad situations like being in the Hunger Games so she would help calm me down as if I were Prim when she was in the reaping.

    1. I completely agree with you. She seems to always stand up and help her friends. I would also become friends with her for the same reasons. She would help me if I got hurt, or made a mistake. I also agree with the fact that she would help calm me down in the games, just like she has to Peeta. I don't think I could ever aim either. Katniss would be a great friend.

  13. I think me and katniss would be just fine because me and her are very alike but I trust anyone just not the devil inside them. Other then that we are both skilled in archery, like hunting, aware of our surroundings, and are mental survival kings

  14. I think that Katniss and I would not be able to be friends because I don't like to see animals dead because if I did I would be very upset and I would have to just leave because I would not like to be able to see cute little animals dead because it is really sad I honestly don't see how Katniss would be able to kill animals because it is too hard on me because I can't do that because it is really sad that animals have to die so that we can eat. I just think that Katniss and I would not be able to be friends because she hunts for animals

    2. I agree because I know you and I have to watch, and take care of our younger sibling and I help pay for food to put on the table if my parents aren't their you know

  16. I would have Katniss as my friend because she is honest and willing to stick up for someone. also she keeps her promises, an example of that would be when rue is dieing she says win the games for me and Katniss is willing to do whatever she has to do, to win for Rue

    1. I could become friends with Katniss because she a rough but yet pretty girl with potential so she could play football with the guys and still look pretty after words and she would be cool to hang around with she could teach me how to hunt I could teach her how to play sports and guy stuff since she's like a Tom boy so yeah I could be best friends with katniss or just friends with katniss

    2. I agree with you Kyle, but in a time for crisis do you think that you and Katniss would agree on a right strategic plan to come together and BOTH get out alive?

  17. I feel like Katniss and I would be good friends because me and her have a lot in common because my dad hunts for deer so I'm use to all the the dead animals . We are also alike because I love my family more than anything in the world and I would try to help them as much as I could and I would be devastated if they got hurt or anything . I feel like we would be able to do a lot if things together and feel like if I was in trouble I could rely on her and she could rely on me . I feel like it might be hard at first to get too know her because her only friend is a guy but I feel like I could teach her things and she would be able to do the same for me .

    1. How do you feel about Katniss's personality? Like would you and Katniss have the same reaction if you guys got into danger or would you both agree on the strategies you both come up with?

  18. Well if I would had a choice to be best friends with someone I would say Katniss because she is a very trust worthy person I would not have a felling that she would betray me I would give her my word and hope she would not kill me

    ReplyDelete
  19. I don't thinks I would be good friends with Katniss because she likes to hunt while I don't. Katniss has somewhat of a violent personality when she has a bow and arrow, which intimidates me. I can't find anything I can really relate with anything in her life.

  20. I think I could become friends with Katniss because if you make the right choices like Rue does, then she can be a trustworthy and reliable friend. Also, if you get to know Katniss, she can really help you along the way. For example, Rue was being a good friend to her so when Katniss went hunting she made sure she got Rue some food since she is so good at hunting.

    1. I agree with you I feel that if you really get to know her she will be able to give you something back like gale and her do with gale teaching her about the snars and she showed him plants and herbs that he can use as food

  21. I would love to be friends with katniss because she is a great friend she is loving,caring,kind,thoughtful,and obedient.If you knew or actually felt what Katniss goes through each day and night worrying if prim and her mother have food to eat and she traded herself so that prim didn't have to do the games. Also she cares about gale and she had to take on a lot of responsibility ever since there dad died,I know some teenagers wouldn't be able to do what katniss did.for example,she never killed peeta in the games even when she had to heal him and he couldn't walk she didn't leave him there to die or suffer.But lastly she barely knew Rue and she stood by her side shared supplies and they wasn't even in the same district even when rue die she cared enough to take out the spear and decorate flowers around her body. So I would want to be her friend because I know at the end of the day she will be their for me even to risk her life and I can trust her.

    1. Qorah, its funny because when I initially read this question, I thought that I wouldn't be able to be friends with someone like Katniss. She is rough and tumble and quite frankly I'm a big wuss. I wear my emotions on my sleeve while Katniss keeps a straight face at all times. However, after reading your response, I'm starting to change my opinion. You are completely right when you say,"she will be there for me even to risk her life and I can trust her." I couldn't agree more! She always risks her life for her family and friends, so why wouldn't she do that for me, too!

      Delete
    2. Qorah, I agree with you very strongly. I Think the same way you do.

  22. Yes, I would become friends with Katniss because she is a very caring person in all. Also in the book Katniss meets Rue and care for her like she would care for prim because Katniss is a very nice caring person. Katniss didn't and will never like the thought of killing people so that makes me have no fear of her and that she would never hurt me and would always protect me.She also cares a lot about her friends because in that story she thought Peeta betrayed her but she still went back to save him and help him.

    1. I agree with you Sarah becouse she does seem like a nice caring person becouse she took primes spot for the games and she helped rue out in the games. I also thought that if I came friends with her that she would help me out and keep me safe. She also does not want her friends or family to get hurt.

      Delete
  23. Yes I wold love to become Katniss friend because she is a caring,thoughtful person. For example she volunteers as a tribute for her sister prim at the reaping. Also she cared for Rue in the hunger games even though they were in 2 different districts, and when rue died Katniss takes the spear out of Rue's body and puts flowers all around her body. Then when she found Peeta camouflaged with mud on the ground and a injured leg she cared for him all the way until he was better.

  24. i would be friends with Katniss because I feel that Katniss is a good friend she cared for other tributes in the arena just as well as she treats her tributes because in the arena Katniss help a little girl named rue in the arena. She took care of her ,and she loved her just like she loved prim

  25. Yes I would want to be friends with Katniss because she will never let any of her friends or family down even if she has to "trick" them like she did to Peeta. She is a very kind and loving person.i would love to be her friend.

  26. I think that I would become good friends with Katniss because she is a person that u could trust her with things like secrets and she seems like the kind of person if you need to cry her shoulder to cry on so she seems like a good person to be a friend

  27. Yes I would be Katniss friend because she is caring and very trusting. For example she I'd caring because she took places with prim so her little sister did not have to go to the higher games. I think that she very nice. I could trust her too because she stands up for her friends and her family I I like that.

  28. I would be able to be friends with Katniss because she is a very caring,confident,motherly person even if she doesn't show her feelings very often. She doesn't have to think twice about caring for her family and friends. I care for my family and friends all the time. When there going though tuff time or just need someone to talk to I will always be therefor them no matter what.

  29. I think I couldn't be best friends with Katniss because we have no similar characteristics such as she hunts and I don't she doesn't take showers and I do. Those are the reasons why we couldn't be best friends.

  30. Yes, I could be katniss friend because she is trustworthy,caring,and helpful. For example during when rue was alive she helped rue, rue could trust katniss not to kill her when she had her back turned and when she is sleeping. When rue died she coved with flowers witch show that she cared for rue

  31. yes I think me and katniss will be good friends because she trustwoarthy helpfull reliable I think this because when she took care of her family they ed on her to put food on the table .She is trustwoarthy because Petta can trust her to protect him.She is really helpfull because she helps a lot of people with a lot of stuff.We would get along becuase we both stay active we like to hunt .

  32. I think me and Katniss would become good friends. Because she is very convincing for example she is leading all Panem to believe her and Peta are madly in love. Also she is very strategic for example she cuts the tracker jacker nest on to the "crew" and kills one to knock out some competition. And she is very trustworthy like she cared for prim and when she died she decorated her body to show the game makers she wasn't just a pawn in their game she was a little girl so I would be her friend because she is strategic,trustworthy,and stand up for what she believes in so we have a lot in common from athletic ability to caring for another

  33. I personally think that me and katniss would be great friends ! Katniss is cool and kind she might kill people but at the end of the day she's cool ! And I would love to have katniss as a friend because she would care if I got hurt and would nurse me back to life ! Just like she did Peeta ! But katniss is a great friend to have and cool to talk to ! I like katniss because in her world family comes first she always make sure her family is good before anything ! That's the best part about her !

  34. See I am not all into that BFF kind of thing but I would most likely be friends with out of all of them I would probably be friends with gals because peeta is to shy and I am not shy so that would not work gale seems a lot more like me then shy s arc of girl peeta

  35. I would definitely be a friend with Katniss Everdean because she is caring and loving. She could be my bodygaurd/BFF. In the story she takes care of Peta and his leg.

  36. I like Katniss but I don't think we would be friends because even though she is a good person she is just strong and fierce and determined while I am weak compared to her

  37. I would love to be katniss friend because she got prim a gift when they are extremely poor she care about everyone not about herself and she could of left peeta to die but she got him the feast so he can survive and after there farther died katniss provides for prim and the mother and she traded spots with prim so that prim doesn't die in the hunger games.

  38. I would become friends with Katniss. This is because she is very skillful, and if I didn't team up with her, I would probably get shot with an arrow. Also, Katniss is a trustworthy ally and doesn't backstab her teammates. But if we were the last two and from different districts, I would have to kill her.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I think that Katniss and I could not become friends because I don't like to hunt but,if I had to I would. Also because in the book it explains that she can hide her emotions which I can not do very well. Katniss knows what to do with bows arrows and she could live in the woods or anywhere miles Nd miles away from the nearest store and I could not live in the woods because I would start to freak out like peeta did.And that's why I could not be friends with prim

  40. I think that Katniss and I could be pretty good friends because she is caring,thautghfull,and very caring.she has to go thru a lot finding food,doing chores,and tacking care of the chores that her dad did like getting money,cooking,ect.So I know that she would be by my side at all times and I can trust her to do that.

  41. Would Peeta be a great person to be a friend and have good characteristics? Yes, she would but then why isn't she a very social person back in district 12? Katniss is very serious and lacks original character. Because of that, I don't think I would be friends with her. I just wouldn't get to know her.

    ReplyDelete
  42. I would be katniss's friend because she seems to care for her friends and those who are around her for example rue from district 11 wasn't someone she knew but she became friends with rue and they even helped each other out so I would like to become friends with katniss

    ReplyDelete
  43. I think me & Katniss could be good friends because although I don't hunt she is tough I'm tough she could teach me how to hunt but most of all she's a very good friend because in the hunger games she barely knew rue or Peeta but she did for them as if that was her brother or sister. Plus she very caring like when she volunteers for her sister prim that's the type of friend Katniss is
