This week in class, we’re reading "The Most Dangerous Game" by Richard Connell.


In “The Most Dangerous Game,” a big game hunter falls off his yacht and is rescued by a mysterious general who claims to hunt only the most dangerous game.


As we read, we will be discussing the themes of Fear & ParanoiaMorality, and War & Peace as they relate to the text. We are trying to answer these big questions :


"How does fear drive action?", "How are we changed by war?", and "Why do people do bad things?"


Ways to support your child:

Ask your child about this short story at home:What was "The Most Dangerous Game" About
