Romeo and Juliet and The Hunger Games had many similarities and differences. They both fell in love despite their major differences. They both were willing to die for each other in the end. They had a major difference at the end. It was mainly Romeo and Juliet were renaissance teenagers and Katniss and Peeta were modern teenager. Romeo and Juliet was similar to The Hungers games, because in both stories the teenagers fell in love despite their major differences. In The Hunger Games it says “Katniss a survivor who fights to feed her sister prim and mom. Then it says” Peeta was the boy from the bakery who hardly noticed me in grade school.” Then in Romeo and Juliet it said that the Montagues and the Capulets had a feud between their families.
Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and West Side Story both have a lot in common as well as major differences that set them apart. Although West Side Story is a direct rendition of Shakespeare's original play, many of the themes and symbols are altered to fit the modern perspective. The characters have a direct correlation to each other, yet racial issues give them a new light. Many of the events also reflect each other, yet small differences give them uniqueness. West Side Story differs from Romeo and Juliet in characterizations, plot sequences, and themes.
The Department of Human Service (DHS) is a national or sub national umbrella agency that was set into place to provide public assistance in different cities and regions across America (U.S. Department of Human Services, [DHS], 2011). According to Dr. Raquel Hatter, Commissioner of Tennessee, the DHS Mission Statement is; “To improve the well-being of Tennesseans who are economically disadvantaged, vulnerable or living with disabilities through a network of financial, employment, protective and rehabilitative services” (DHS, 2011). In this observation we are going to take a look at DHS in the state of Tennessee, as well as what DHS offers within their system. We will also take a look at how DHS relates to, and implements the empowerment
The first tragic similarity in Romeo and Juliet and To Kill A Mockingbird is they both have conflicts. For example, the conflict of the Capulets and the Montagues is stated at the very beginning of the play. These two families are of equal
The last similarity between both main characters is that the two both have family and friends that they love, and would sacrifice their lives for. Katniss risked her life for Prim when she volunteered in place of her for the Hunger Games (Collins 22-23). Katniss has feelings for Peeta and cares for him when he is injured. Jonas learns to love, and loves Gabe, and protects him from being released. What is also interesting to note is that both characters have a younger sister, and parents they cannot be truly loved by. Both characters care deeply for and want to protect people they are
Viewers compare both play and film to be similar, but also believe they show distinct differing interpretations of character and growth, plot structure, setting and themes. The main difference in the plot structure between ROMEO AND JULIET and ROMEO MUST DIE would fall in place of the lives of the characters, the NFL-ownership deal and abandonment of family.

Five Miles Away, A World Apart: One City, Two Schools, and The Story of Educational Opportunity in Modern America, written by James E. Ryan is a story about educational opportunity. It starts off by describing two very different schools in Richmond Virginia that are only about five miles apart from each other. The first school, Freeman High School is a suburban school, while the second school, Thomas Jefferson or “Tee-Jay” High School is a city school. Ryan explains how even after all of the Supreme Court rulings to make schools more integrated and more equal that city and suburban schools are still very unequal and not very integrated. Freeman and Tee Jay schools are a great example of this. Freeman is predominantly white but is becoming more and more diverse. Today, the school is made up of 73% white, 13% African-American, 7% Hispanic, and 6% are Asian. The majority of students in this school come from middle-class families. Tee-Jay is also diverse but is predominantly black. Today, the school’s student body is made up of 82% black, 16% white, and 2% are Asian or Hispanic. Most of the students at Tee-Jay High School come from poor families. In this book Ryan goes through the past, present, and future of educational opportunity and specifically goes into how school district lines affect education.
Diversity, Stereotypes, and Representation Diversity is not common in the field of animation. This leaves many character designs being made up with the same formula which consists of skinny conventionally attractive characters with light skin and light eyes. Something many companies fail to understand is that when creativity is concerned, not only is it good to be diverse but it is essential for the representation of minority groups. Having a cast with a diverse and culturally rich set of characters in a project also benefits the look and feel of a story.
The theme isalso very different because although there is love overcoming hate in the long run it willnot always workout. In the book romeo and juliet ,Juliet
When Romeo first catches sight of Juliet, she is compared to the radiant light of the torches and tapers that light up Capulet's hall, as stated, "O, she doth teach the torches to burn bright!" (Shakespeare, 1579) . Romeo also says that Juliet is the light that gives him freedom from his everlasting depression. During the well known balcony scene, Romeo associates Juliet with daylight, sunlight, and the light radiate from God's angels. When Romeo first catches sight of Juliet, she is compared to the radiant light of the torches and tapers that light up Capulet's hall, as stated, "O, she doth teach the torches to burn bright!"
Imagine loving someone so much that you would die for them. Two teenagers meet at vulnerable points of their lives and are then forcibly separated. Their warring families are the source of their violence. In William Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet, love leads to death as shown by Mercutio,Tybalt, and Romeo & Juliet.
Romeo and Juliet’s relationship and motivation is very like much of today’s teen society. The first similarity in the play is the way the teens and adults say and do certain things to get something done in their favor. In example, Juliet chooses her words wisely as she speaks to Count Paris so that she does not commit herself to him or say that she doesn’t want to marry him. Teens today do this to talk themselves out of tuff situations by misleading whoever they are talking to.
Romeo and Juliet and West Side Story share many similar themes. Romeo and Juliet both chronicle a story of overcoming prejudice and hatred, forbidden love, and defying stereotypes that nobody thought could be broken. The two stories are similar in a multitude of ways, even though their settings are centuries apart- Romeo and Juliet set in the 1500’s, and West Side Story set in the 1950’s. Romeo and Juliet and West Side Story both teach a lesson of how prejudice can teach you how to hate, and how one of your rivals may be the one who helps you remember how to love.

The story of Romeo and Juliet can be compared to modern lives of teenagers, by comparing their actions, personalities and emotions.
