Tucking in her top herself to grow up

Effie is the dominant character who is rich and dressed in bright colours which shows us that district 12 is very poor Effie is in complete contrast to everyone else

When primrose gets picked to take part in the hunger games then her sister volunteers as tribute to save her sister

 Three finger salute is something they do in district 12 we first see it when Katniss everdeene goes on the stage

Then peta millard gets picked she gets a flashback because shes seen hi before

Haymitch tells peta and katniss Embrace the probability of your iminate death ( get used to the idea that your about to die) they are also told by him that they need to get people to like them so they need sponsors

The capital is way flasher then district 12 people in the capital are extravagent we see this through the use of makeup, costume etc. the capital is nice shiny, clean and tidy.

The girl on fire

The standard of living in the capital is way better they have things like electricity

High angle looking down makes katness look weak and vulnerable

Three finger salute is a symbol of hope

Aboriginal


Intro
  1. What is sovereignty and when did Governor Phillip claim Sovereignty of Australia? Sovereignty is a substantive term designating supreme authority over some polity. He claimed ownership of the land through the legal concept of Terra Nullius. 
  2. What does Terra Nullius mean? Land that is legally deemed to be unoccupied or uninhabited.
  3. Was the meaning true for Australia? Give an example to support your answers. Governor Arthur Phillip claimed sovereignty and ownership of the land through the legal concept of terra nullius over the area that Captain James Cook had named New South Wales. 
First Encounters

How did the first fleet of Colonists treat the indigenous people? The people of the First Fleet did not understand the ways of the local Indigenous peoples they encountered however, and their diaries and journals record the lack of respect that many members of the First Fleet had for local Indigenous people.


What did the British espouse the indigenous people to? The British Admiralty gave 'Secret Instructions' to Lieutenant James Cook on each of his three voyages to the South Pacific between 1768 and 1779. 

Pemulway

Who is Pemulway and what did he do in defiance to Governor Philip? Governor Phillip’s tolerance of the local inhabitants did not last long. The warrior Pemulwuy of the Bidjigal nation, located in today’s western Sydney, speared a frontier man in 1790 as punishment for killing Bidjigal people. This behavior would have been punished in pre-contact tribal society. Phillip retaliated by ordering his staff to kill ten ‘natives’ and capture two in order to stop further reprisals.
Conflict
  1. What were some of the reasons Aboriginal's would kill Europeans?
  2. What impacts did the conflict for Colonists?
  3. During these conflicts how many died on both sides?

Metals

Copper -

  1. The Statue of Liberty is made from 179,000 pounds of copper.
  2. All gold contains some level of copper, even 24 karat gold. This is because gold is so soft, it can be moulded with the hands and calls for a bit of copper to be added.
  3. Copper is 100% recyclable and nearly 80% of the copper that has been produced is still in use today.
